Faction Speific Mobile Artillerys

[Peacemaker]

Purchaseable only in the sanc!!!! Right off the air pads. That way if there is a huge battle going on its going to take a while to get one to the battle field (also it CANNOT go in the lodestar)

It would be able to fire at targets on the ground, but it's extremely long reload time would make it vulnerable once all the rockets are gone from the clip. It would be transported on a simple, truck-like vehicle (1 driver, 1 gunner), and would need to b deployed out (spikes come from the side ports of the vehicle) to fire.

Not Bad, MayBe A Trailer To Carry The Ammo. If Destroyed, Artillary = Useless.

It also will show up on radar as if it was under detection, thus giving it nearly no radar cover. Also, it would have almost no straight-fire arc, thus limiting it to laze-pointed targets. It would be transported via a massive tank-tread vehicle (driver and gunner), would need to be deployed (stabilizing pads from the sides of the artillery platform), and could only be deployed on flat ground.

Cool, If It Required One To Get Out And Lock Stability Pads Down, and To Unlock them.

The way that it damages is by making a cloud that causes frequent, heavy damage at anything in its radius (think super-radiator) for a short time (around 3 seconds to compensate for its not-slow-as-dirt ROF), and the actual damage zones would be pretty big to compensate for the actual impact not doing anything. It would be transported via a floating platform (artillery in the middle and 2 hover-generators at either side), and, of course, would need to be deployed in combat to be used (gravlocks coming from the hover gens).

Like It.

Pretty nice stuff, but i don't think the VS artillary NEEDS a second barrel.

It sounds fun. But like you say; piss easy XP. I think it should need 3 troops to dedicate time to supply, load and fire the mobile turret. Say, give it weak armor, make it slow, and defenseless when mobile. Needs to be guarded when deployed, due to it being crap at close range. (big, slow turret). Encourages teamwork and can be a very powerful asset the any offensive/defensive. My ideas are;

1 Gunner (drives, and fires the turret)
1 Commander (Aquires target from the main map [[Like setting an OS, but with more distance]])
1 Supplier. (Loads the turret. Each clip fires 3.)

What 'dya think? Time, effort, defence, teamwork.
