Description
Descrition
The PreHiSToric CCL-170 is an attempt from CIAIC to build a multi-crew tank using only old technologies. The actual paint was attributed after a regiment of 'Molosse' faced a giant swarm of bug's like hostile creatures two consecutive days. Now considered as relics of an old era and preserved in museums, their paint remains intact.

General
Weight: 122t
Max speed: 60km/h
Elevation: -7° -> 12°
Minimum crew: 2 (driver and gunner)

PCU: 6050
Blocks: 1370
Script/Mod: 0
Survival: not recommended.

Features
  • Gyroscope driven turret: an experimental attempt to control the turret with a simple but highly reactive targeting system.
  • Tank driving system: the turret taking the priority to the driving system, the R&D department of CIAIC creates a complex but 'easy to use' skid steering system from scratch resulting, for the driver, in 4 controls:
    - Start/Stop
    - Turn left
    - Turn right
    - Reverse propulsion
    Note: pressing a second time a direction will cancel it.

No scripts
Obviously scripts are better. It's a personal challenge where I wanted to build a 100% vanilla tank. Now here is a multi-crew battle tank you can use in quick multi-crew battles in vanilla environment.

Multi-crew
For some reason the game does not allow more than one player using a grid (and/or subgrids), so I dealt with the fact that cockpits have the priority to the remote controls to build the turret system. This is why the driver have to control a remote to not lock controls for the gunner.


Thanks to JDprimus_2199 FR and Massacror for testing the multi-crew ability of this tank.

That explains the weird voice in my head.

Looks like the noise marines painted your tank
