I just heard that John Trimble passed away earlier today. Along with his wife Bjo, they were a beating heart at the centre of early Trek fandom, and they organised the letter-writing campaign that got TOS renewed for series 3.

A standard counter to TSM monsters is heat-causing weapons.  If you max out the +15 from external heat (fairly easy via inferno SRMs), then the heat rises to 24 reducing move to 1/2 with an 8+  shutdown avoid and a +4 modifier to fire.

Being better than a standard autoannon isn't that difficult. They're pretty much garbage.

No, my post wasn't that cut and dry and neither is my intent. If I wanted to keep my "campers" safe, I wouldn't be asking for alternative methods for dealing with the tactic. As has been pointed out and discussed, arty is crunchy and adds time onto the game.  And... My gaming group will spam it (without necessarily understanding the rules), if allowed to, which makes things crunchier and more time consuming. I want other tactics, weapons, rules (etc) for dealing with campers that are more streamlined.

Well the reason I asked that way Is you mentioned that one of the reason you used the overwatch is because a lot of players you play with use fast and light meduims.   And those fast units that can flank are a major way that you can deal with campers by getting in the rear arc.  But in your case you have the overwatch rule as well.   So I would suggest not using the overwatch rule and let those speed guys do what they do to deal with campers if you don't want artillery in the game.    I know you said the overwatch feels like it speeds your game up.  And you are right because if you take away the ablity to flank campers your enemy has problems.

The Transformers wiki has a page on that too:

https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Scale

(TFWiki is one of the best out there, up there with Sarna and Memory Alpha in terms of information but it has an irreverant sense of humour which elevates the content.)

SPAs do not count toward qualifying the unit for formations.
