Default Re: Ogre Minis Revision Issue: Mark VII

I keep forgetting that this monster is M2. Given that, I think that doubling the range of the main and secondary batteries would not be unreasonable. Now you've got mobile howitzer ranged MBs, and missile tank ranged SBs. Maybe grant the Rattlers and extra 3 hexes/6 inches of range. Why? Why not? I'm sure that some Star Trekish techno babble could be cobbled up about a stabler firing platform, larger caliber weapons with great PD, more powerful anti-PD weapons suite on the Mark VII, etc,...

The point being that if you're going to build the Ogre Mark VII Juggernaut/Behemoth then you're seriously going to have to step up the quality of it's armaments by an order of magnitude, there's a certain point where "more of the same" isn't better and definitely not cost effective. So let's give it more AND bigger teeth and then see how much it can bite off.
