« Last post by Iron Grenadier on Today at 12:57:46 »Very true. Players had one more raid for StarCorps, then FedCom picked them up to do the same for them. Some slim pickings during those years...

« Last post by Greatclub on Today at 12:39:01 »The biggest problem is that if you're doing this from the the FedCom side, they're going to demand you turn over all the shinies to them.
They're kind of jerks that way for a while.

« Last post by Primus203 on Today at 12:36:02 »So just noting the jeep has a trailer with 5 infantry mortars and the Groundpounder bomber carries bombs. However per advice I produced a trio of Mech mortar carriers as all of these mortars seem to use the same size of round making logistics acceptable.
Bradley Mortar- Removes the turret and infantry bay and downrates the engine to fit a mech mortar 8 and 4 tons of varied ammo thinned armor was acceptable for an artillery unit can still survive a heavy gauss shot to any armor face.
