AP Gauss Rifle Carrier

[Retry]

The AP Gauss Rifle Carrier is a swift, hover-based weapons platform.  Fires enough slugs at a time to blot out the sun.
 Transform entire platoons into crimson jelly, seriously bugger up other vehicles and their motive systems, or even seriously threaten a 'Mech at close range, all for a reasonable price.  Comes in Three Flavors: ICE, SFE, and FCE.

for the ones that really want to get ride on any conventional infantry!

[Sabelkatten]

I made a hover with 10 vehicle flamers, I think that's about the final word on PBI hate... ;) This is a bit more practical, thought!

[kaliban]

If they used some thousands of these since the beginning of Clan Invasion they should probably have won ...

[Daryk]

Nice... the only thing I would have done differently was try to make it all fit at 30 tons to cut the crew down to two...

Nice.  Very anti-infantry, can still do damage to most units upto and including mechs.  I've done something similar with LAC 2s for their versatility of ammo, but it wasn't this nasty.
