FCE Hetzer with Gauss and MGs

[Stormcrow]

First I wanted to try an HGR, but that would have meant an XLE to get a decent ammo loadout. Went with an FCE and was still able to put on a Gauss and some anti-infantry weaponry.

Be easy enough to get 5/8 without the machineguns

Regardless of ammo, you would have needed a fusion engine at least to actually power the HGR. It's a requirement. And that would do bad things to the price.

I love this little tank hunter.   Definitely lives up to it's namesake.    The plethora of MGs is fun too.

I think a half ton of MG ammo and no case for a ton extra armour would fit a Hetzer better, but I suppose cheap has it's limits.
It's pretty workable, in any case.
