Nightmare Class Walker
http://rpggamer.org/shippics/terrorwalker.jpg

Type: Huntarian Heavy Walker

Length: 25 meters

Height: 23 meters

Crew: 4

Passengers: 30

Cargo Capacity: 4 metric tons

Cover: Full

Move: 40, 95 mph

Shielding: 200 SBD

Weapons:
Twin Advanced Heavy Laser Cannons, 2 Advanced Concussion Missile launchers, 2 Advanced Grenade Launchers

General Description:
The Nightmare Walker is Huntaer's version (and answer to) of the Galactic Empire's infamous AT-AT's. These war machines have shielding on them unlike the GE's AT-AT's making them and even more formidable opponent. Also, the Nightmare Walker has a stronger hull, and contains more firepower. It's weaponery systems are upgraded to advanced weaponery
rather than the older designs. These are expencive walkers, and we'll be seeing not to many of these in combat due to expence. Huntaer prefers to conquer planets with large troop numbers and starships than using walkers, though that' about to change as war looms between (NS) GE and the Godular alliance.

Nightbringer
http://tn2.deviantart.com/300W/fs6.deviantart.com/i/2005/063/9/2/Warhammer__Land_Raider_by_mikkow.png

Type: Huntarian Land Raider

Manufacturer: Huntarian Land Assault Forge Worlds

Length: 15meters

Height: 6meters

Crew:2 +1 gunner

Passengers: 15

Speed: 40; 200 mph

Armor:
Front = 30cm
Sides = 30cm
Back = 30cm

Shields: 200 SBD

Weaponry:
1 Heavy Advanced Bolt Gun, 2 Advanced Lasguns, 1 missile launcher

General Description:
The Nightbringer is the Huntarian version of the IoM Land Raider. It's a fairly fast tank, capable of covering vast distances to help with mission time. It's also very well armored, using the Advanced Durasteel which most Huntarian capital ships use. Yet another breakthrough in huntarian engineering.

What to the what? When did this happen? And is the GE you're referring to the alliance? :confused: I feel so left out....


Good looking walkers though. The single thing I don't like about them is the tripwire problem. The Rebels were retarted enough to use snowspeeders, but a cannon meant to fire two weights and a really long line could be easily made. The two weights would cause the line to wrap around the walker's legs.

But you probably have blades on the sides of the legs to prevent this.

It happened a while ago. Tensions are rising up against the (NS) GE and Chronosia has recently been attacked. I think that the war has started.
These newer vehicals will be seen on the battle front.

Umm... got a link? (sry for the thread hijack)

I'll be out of town for a while, so assume I've sent a fleet of MonCal cruisers, etc to help if I'm not back by the time war breaks loose.

OOC: I don't use Mon calamari star cruisers. I use my own origonal towerless star destroyers(TSDs) and Towerless Super Star Destroyers(TSSDs), as well as a few regular star destroyers.

Length: 25 meters

Height: 20 meters

Crew: 4

Passengers: 20

Cargo Capacity: 6 metric tons

Cover: Full

Move: 20, 90 mph

Shielding: 400 SBD

Weapons:
4 Advanced Heavy Laser Cannons, 2 concussion missile launchers


General Description:
The Vindicator Walker is a heavyly armored walker which is designed to be used up front in battle, taking in the heavy artillery shots fired from the enemy lines hence the strong armor and high shielding(for a land assault vehical). It is capable of transporting up to ~2 squads to the front of the enemy lines which are more intact. A major bonus to the Vindicator Walker, it's leg's are thicker and farther appart than those of the AT-AT's rendering the "Tow-Cables" of a rebel speeder useless.

Description:
The Vengence Battle Tank is the upgraded Huntarian version of the Imperium of Man's Rhino Tank. It can transport up to either 10 space marines or 10 clone troopers (may not transport Space Marine Terminators or those who exceed the hight of the Tank). As an improved feature, Huntaer has developed a Mini-Assault Cannon which is twin linked. It delivers half the damage as a normal assault cannon, but it fires just as fast. The Vengence Tank is good with the "Multiple Numbers" method.

Description:
With the thread of other walkers in the galaxy, the Land Assault Forge Worlds saw a great oportunity to develop a tank which could stand up to an AT-AT and Rebel Counterparts. The Furry Tank uses the same rail gun techonlogy thus of the Tau, making it a deadly weapon. It's also more accurate, and has a longer range as well. This uses the newest technology Huntaer has to offer, making it a deadly find in the Huntarian Military.

Did I misread?

Others are a bit high as well, such as the Huntarian Hover Transport and the Huntarian Rhino Variant (which doesn't look to be a race car)

1) I can see the confusion in the Nightbringer. It's suppose to be 40 to 200 kph, not 40,200kph (which I belive is technically impossible even for FT). As to the other tanks, no. That's the all-out speed if it was on complete flat terrain.

2) (Referring to the Airspeeder) 1200kph = 745.34 Mph There are jets which go past this speed in RL. Mach 2 is only 2172 kph. This isn't even mach 1. FT doesn't have the same requirements for it's ships as MT does. Get your facts straight.

3) As to the "((this is just under the crusing speed of commercial jet planes for a huge land mech?))" comment, why not? It's lighter than a walker, slightly heavier than a tank. I'm willing to lower it's speed however.

4) The speed for the hover tank is fine. Speed for all other tanks are fine.

Also note, this is FT. MT rules do not apply.

Oh, that's right. KPH =/= MPH. I'm sorry. With that, it all makes sense.

Considering how we were responding late at night, I would get Kph and Mph confused.

The Merkari army has reviewed the specifications of several Huntaer designs. They seem impressive on paper, but we still have a few questions.

1. What are the price on Kirtir assault transports?
2. How strong is one unit of SBD?
3. I assume that when you refer to "bolt" weaponry, you are talking about tachyon bolts, correct?

The current units that interest us are the Nightbringer tank and Vindicator walker. What are the price on each of them?

We continue to look for candidate designs to equip our land forces with, and if these Huntaer models appear to be the best option, expect to hear more from us in the future.

OOC: See the "land assault store front." I have pricings listed there (can't remember off hand)


2. How strong is one unit of SBD?
[quote]

I'm unsure. I only know of them to be used for SW vehivals/starships for shield units. Further research required.

[quote]3. I assume that when you refer to "bolt" weaponry, you are talking about tachyon bolts, correct?


Wrong. When I refer to "bolt" weaponery, I'm refering to the 40k tech. They're basically advanced bullets, surviving from the creation of lasers. I'll need to read the Space Marine Codex before I can get a more accurate answer.... Or ask "Chronosia," the Chaos expert here on NS about 40k weaponery (the easier option). He can give you an accurate crash course in 40k weap.

*points to statement #1*

I looked at that other storefront. It has the Vindicator at 55 million but does not say the price for the Kirtir or Nightbringer. Just FYI, it seems like the more designs you turn out the more you have to keep track of.

I'll check it out later on today. Time for bed for me....

We have some questions about the Vindicator Class Walker.

- At what distance can a 200mm railgun penetrate the armor and shields? How many shots would it take to destroy the walker with this attack?
- About how many hits can it take from large energy (laser, plasma, tachyon bolt, etc.) weapons can it take?

The Assault Hover Craft Transport seems interesting. What kind of temperature range can it operate in, and can core systems remain functional after being submerged in salt water for an hour? If the lasers were replaced by plasma shards, would the shot quickly dissipate in dusty conditions?

OOC: 1) Ever seen The Empire Strikes Back? Picture those AT-AT's..... X10. A tau rail-gun could destroy it in 1 shot (because that thing is so , but normal railguns will take a while. Probably 10. Possibly 15.

2) Again, if you looked at what the rebel's had to resolve to, it will take a huge amount of firepower from lasers of plasma weapons (which, again is what SW "Lasers" are....). I haven't heard much of tachyon bolts.

1) It is typically ment for Earth-Like climate. However, it can easily be modified for desert and ice planets sucn as Hoth, Tatooine or Genosis. They could even opperate on asteroid bases (such as Polis Masa).

2) Absolutely. The shields and armor help repell the salt water. Besides, most of these worries of MT are negleted in FT.

3) Again, no lasers (except for the las cannons/guns, which I'd recommend to keep on). All SW weaponery are plasma. So I believe basic rules would remain.
