Description
(HV Tier 4, Class 1, Unlock Level 20)

Primary roles: Combat, Shield, Storage, Harvest, Drone hatch, Survival Comforts

The MCRN-Ballista-T4 is an assault tank designed to take out enemies quickly. It features the max amount of turrets allowed for HV's in standard game rules. All turrets are set to have a wide range of targeting and can all fire forward at once. The idea is a strong offense makes a good defense. However as in defense it is no slouch. Built of combat steel, many layers thick on the front side with additional protection for the pilot from the rear and has a shield. It comes with most all survival features including 13K storage, 4K ammo storage, 1K harvest storage, med station, armor locker, constructor, o2 and dispenser, WiFi, detector, clone chamber, drone hatch, fridge, an additional cargo boxes.

Offense and Defense

The hull is made with combat steel and has many layers of front protection. Some layers are however cargo extensions. It comes with 6 mini gun turrets, 4 rocket launcher turrets, 4 plasma turrets, 1 artillery, 4 gatling guns, and 4 harvesters. The rear is also designed to protect the pilot with a double back door as well as a combat steel internal firewall. The tank can move and strafe well even with a full load of cargo and has plenty of ammo storage. The design also keeps key parts such as fuel tanks and generators separated by blocks and away from the front to avoid any chain reactions if taking heavy damage.

Features Summary:

1. HV Tier 4 Class 1 Unlock Level 20
2. Maximum turrets for HV, placed for maximum firing rotations and full on front attacks.
3. Shield, 4 Gatling guns, 4 harvesters
4. 13K storage, 4K ammo storage, 1K harvest storage, 3 large cargo boxes
5. Constructor, Fridge, Armor locker, med station, clone chamber, o2 and dispenser, WiFi, Detector

Thank you all! Sorry about my slow response. I haven't looked at this tank in a while to see how it is playing with the current version of the game or RE. I may check it out and see what it needs to be updated. It was originally built for vanilla and vanilla CPU at that time. @rootzij, I will check it out! And thanks again all!

@Strom, I have been trying to update it for 1.5 for weights and volumes for Vanilla, but its been tough lol. RFE modding yet still working on it. I am trying to get this thing to carry frontal lasers for shield depletion, up the ammo box and containers, and power/CPU.

But its been tough lol. I LOVE this thing. But its tough to work while trying to keep the same feel. I have a 1.5 Vanilla version, but I have to play with the storage more presently. Kind of late in to patch and I am still at it lol xD This thing is GLORIOUS with weights and volumes off, because you can carry endless ammo and loot.

With it on? Not so much xD

I will try too, but JRandall is going to release his today I think. You may want to start with that. I may release the more classic version, and always, credit him for it. Been doing several refits of his older works. Should check out my version of his Perses. I made it an attack carrier that can take on Vanilla dreadnoughts.

@spaghettioz I'd b interested. I play on a RFE server.

I have done an updated version of this for 1.5. Still works great, still well under CPU, plenty more nastiness to be delivered.

Anyone interested? I'll be getting back into RFE in July when they say it ought to be good to go.

Just dropped a modified version of this tank for RE and Empyrion 1.3x:

It is in Russian :-) And it says 'HV_Light Tank T4'. Left a link to this page too.

Thanks for being an inspiration and I love your designs!

I must have been napping when this one came out - exactly what I'm looking for in a tank. Great build, thanks!
