Topic: How about Martian Tripods....
I've been pondering about Martians lately. How would Martian Tripods work in Wardogs? How much are you going to abstract infantry out?

You know...before the great forum reload I had a scenario up with a pair of martian tripods vs infantry. :roll: Murphy really needs to take a LONG vacation, eh? *L*
The infantry is set up in squads...and I've a pretty good assortment of infantry types pre-made...such as a Heavy Weapons-Ballistic squad. This can be used to represent field pieces, bazooka, TOW missiles...etc. I am trying to set things up so you can design your own infantry if desired with the new mechanics.
Martian tripods can be constructed easily...example:
Unit type: Mecha
Tech Level: Fusion
Size: 5
(Hard Points: X Equipment Modules: X )
Armor: 8
MP: 6
Thermal Signature: 3
Stability Modifier: X
Equipment:
Legs x3
Arms (tentacles) x6?
Co-pilot/ gunner seat
Thermal Dampers
Turret
Weapons:
Heat Ray (Energy) Range: 5 ROF: 1 DMG: 4 Extra Damage
Black Smoke (Ballistic) Range: 4 ROF: 1 DMG: 1 Continuous DMG- Poison, Reload x3 Ammo: 3
Pilot +1/ Gunner: +1
(this is just a visual...I've not actually done a design off the new mechanics yet) :wink:
Ahem.
A shameless cross-post from the Assault Corps neck of the woods:

Yup...pretty shameless there Justin. *LOL*
Seriously...if you want something a bit less abstract than what Wardogs does, Justin's Assault Corps may be a good look at.
Well, all I can say is...great minds think alike....and timing is everything.
