The Arclite siege tank is a four tread tank fitted with twin 80mm PPG-7 Plasma cannons, making it potent tank, in assault mode, capable of engaging heavy armour and buildings. Once in a good position, it can switch to siege mode, making it a static emplacement and the weapon becomes even more powerful. The treads angle out and stabilizing pylons are deployed. The turret and barrels modify themselves, removing the separation between the two barrels, forming a wider, and slightly longer barrel. This creates a longer ranged, more powerful plasma blast that also explodes to affect a larger area upon impact, making it a potent defense weapon, although with a slower rate of fire. While in siege mode, the vehicle is also immobile, requiring protection against airborne and fast ground attack craft that manage to get close.</p><p>The Arclite siege tank is 6 squares long (29.5 ft), 4 square wide (20 ft), with a crew of 3 with full cover.</p><p></p><p><strong>AAV-5 Arclite Siege Tank</strong></p><p>Crew: 3</p><p>Passengers: 0</p><p>Cargo: 60 lbs</p><p>Init: -1</p><p>Maneuver: 0</p><p>Top Speed: 70 (7)</p><p>Defense: 9</p><p>Hardness: 30</p><p>Hit Points: 100</p><p>Size: Huge</p><p>Purchase DC: 48</p><p>Restriction: Mil (+3)</p><p>Accessories: Headlights, GPS, military radio, night vision 1000 ft, 2 fire-linked PPG-7 plasma cannon/Mjolnir 120 mm shock cannon, NBC protection grants +4 to Fort saves, 1 week air/rations, transform.</p><p>Notes: +4 stability to drive checks to prevent being knocked off course or flipped, half penalties for rough terrain, half penalties for firing weapons while moving.

Targets that more than 10 ft long covered within the blast radius take an additional 50% more damage for every 10 ft within the blast radius.

Only usable in siege mode.</p><p>PDC 24 for 10 rounds.</p><p></p><p><strong>Shaped Blast</strong></p><p>These rounds are a type of 'smart shell' reducing the damage to friendly units that might be caught in the blast radius. This is an upgrade to regular and Maelstrom rounds. Reduce damage by 1 die, reduce blast radius by 5 feet. Any allied units (with operating IFF and communications systems) caught in the siege tank's Shock Cannon blast radius gain +4 to Reflex saves, a successful save reduces damage by 75% (three-quarters rounding up), and on a failed save only suffer 75% (three quarters) damage instead.</p><p>PDC: +2</p><p></p><p><strong>Ultra Capacitors</strong></p><p>These self-replicating ultra capacitors reduce reload time of weapons and systems.

Instead of a Shock cannon the plasma cannons turn into, the Exidium instead has an Volcano plasma cannon, completely reducing the dependence on physical ammunition, except for the missiles for defense. For added defense, the Exidium features a shield generator, combined with the lack of physical ammunition for its main weapon, gives the Exidium greater staying power in the battlefield, able to roam with only a few light escorts, set up ambush points, then quickly move to another ambush point before any retaliatory attacks.</p><p>The transformation system, similar to the Arclite's, the wheels angle out, stabilization pylons deploy, the body lowers, and the turret modifies to create a larger turret for heavier damage with large blast area.</p><p>The Exidium Siege Tank is 4 squares long (20.5 ft), 4 square wide (18.2 ft), weighing 35 tons, with a crew of 3 with full cover.</p><p></p><p><strong>Exidium Siege Tank</strong></p><p>Crew: 3</p><p>Passengers: 0</p><p>Cargo: 50 lbs</p><p>Init: -1</p><p>Maneuver: +2</p><p>Top Speed: 90 (9)</p><p>Defense: 9</p><p>Hardness: 20</p><p>Hit Points: 70, shield 80 hp, regenerates 5 hp per round without suffering damage.</p><p>Size: Huge</p><p>Purchase DC: 53</p><p>Restriction: Mil (+3)</p><p>Accessories: Headlights, GPS, military radio, night vision 1000 ft, 2 fire-linked 70mm plasma cannon / 150 mm volcano cannon, anti-air missile launcher (+3 attack airborne targets, -2 to attack ground based targets), NBC protection grants +4 to Fort saves, 1 week air/rations, transform.</p><p>Notes: +2 stability to drive checks to prevent being knocked off course or flipped, </p><table style='width: 100%'><tr><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Name</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Damage</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Crit</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Dam Type</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Range Incr</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Rate of Fire</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Magazine</span></td></tr><tr><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">2 Fire-Linked 70 mm Plasma cannon (assault mode)</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">13d6</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">20x2</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Fire</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">200 ft</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Semi</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">-</span></td></tr><tr><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">150 mm Volcano Cannon (siege mode)</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">10d10</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">-</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Fire</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">300 ft</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Single</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">-</span></td></tr><tr><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Anti-Air Missile Launcher</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">9d6</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">20x2</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Ball/Fire</span></td><td> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"></li> </ul> </td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">Single</span></td><td><span style="font-family: 'Calibri'">12 missiles</span></td></tr></table><p></p><p><strong>70mm Plasma Cannons / 150mm Volcano Cannon</strong></p><p>This weapon is a dual mode weapon system.

[QUOTE="kronos182, post: 9064444, member: 6668634"] [B][SIZE=7]Siege tank[/SIZE][/B] The siege tank is a terran vehicle that can be configured to fulfill both the armoured support and the long-range artillery support roles. The Arclite siege tank is a four tread tank fitted with twin 80mm PPG-7 Plasma cannons, making it potent tank, in assault mode, capable of engaging heavy armour and buildings. Once in a good position, it can switch to siege mode, making it a static emplacement and the weapon becomes even more powerful. The treads angle out and stabilizing pylons are deployed. The turret and barrels modify themselves, removing the separation between the two barrels, forming a wider, and slightly longer barrel. This creates a longer ranged, more powerful plasma blast that also explodes to affect a larger area upon impact, making it a potent defense weapon, although with a slower rate of fire. While in siege mode, the vehicle is also immobile, requiring protection against airborne and fast ground attack craft that manage to get close. The Arclite siege tank is 6 squares long (29.5 ft), 4 square wide (20 ft), with a crew of 3 with full cover.

While in assault mode, it is a pair of 80mm plasma cannons, dealing 14d6, 20x2 fire damage, ignoring 10 points of hardness/DR When the siege tank switches to siege mode, the weapon changes to the Mjolnir Shock Cannon, firing a 120mm tungsten round that shatters on impact, dealing 15d10, 20x2 ballistic damage, ignoring 15 points of hardness/DR to the target struck and deals 10d10 damage to all within 10 foot radius of the target struck, Reflex save DC 15 for half. Targets that more than 10 ft long covered within the blast radius take an additional 50% more damage for every 10 ft within the blast radius. The Mjolnir can attack targets out to 20 range increments, but can't attack anything within 100 feet of the vehicle.

Gains +1 die and +1 to attack rolls. Can be applied 3 times. PDC: 21 [B]Additional Armour[/B] The vehicle can be plated in heavier armour, but at the expense of speed and maneuverability. Adds +1 hardness and +2 hit points, but reduce speed by 5 (1 per 2 applications chase), Initiative and Maneuver by -1. This can be applied 3 times, with penalties and bonuses stacking. PDC: 18 (Mil +3) [B][SIZE=7]Crucio Siege Tank[/SIZE][/B] The Crucio is the replacement to the Arclite, with large hull, additional two treads on the sides, larger weapons and improved armour. One advantage the Crucio has over other vehicles with treads is the treads are made of neosteel plates, and a series of tubes in the chassis and bogies of the tank that pump a fast-drying gel into the affected area, replacing lost or reinforcing damaged tread segments, allowing the vehicle to remain operational after suffering massive damage. The Crucio siege tank is 6 squares long (29.5 ft), 5 square wide (25 ft), weighing 60 tons, with a crew of 3 with full cover.

While in assault mode, it is a pair of 90mm plasma cannons, dealing 14d8, 20x2 fire damage, ignoring 15 points of hardness/DR When the siege tank switches to siege mode, the weapon changes to the 180mm Shock Cannon, firing a 180mm tungsten round that gets superheated at firing, dealing 15d12, 20x2 ballistic damage, ignoring 15 points of hardness/DR to the target struck and deals 10d12 damage to all within 15 foot radius of the target struck, Reflex save DC 17 for half. Targets that more than 10 ft long covered within the blast radius take an additional 50% more damage for every 10 ft within the blast radius. The Shock Cannon can attack targets out to 20 range increments, but can't attack anything within 100 feet of the vehicle. [B]Transform[/B] The siege tank can change from assault mode, functioning as a tank using the plasma cannons, using stats above. As a move equivalent action can change to siege mode, becoming immobile and activates the Shock Cannon, plus its Hardness increases to 35, can't make use of the driver's Dex bonus to Defense but uses the driver's Class bonus to Defense increased by 50% (rounding down). The driver can change between the two modes once per round. [B][SIZE=6]Options[/SIZE][/B] Same as the Arclite plus the following: [B]Maelstrom Rounds[/B] Maelstrom rounds have an armour-piercing tip, improving armour penetration without reducing area damage. Dealing 10d12, 20x3 , ignoring 25 points of hardness/DR to the primary target, while still dealing 10d12 to 15 ft blast radius, Reflex save DC 16. Only usable in siege mode. PDC 24 for 10 rounds. [B]Shaped Blast[/B] These rounds are a type of 'smart shell' reducing the damage to friendly units that might be caught in the blast radius. This is an upgrade to regular and Maelstrom rounds. Reduce damage by 1 die, reduce blast radius by 5 feet. Any allied units (with operating IFF and communications systems) caught in the siege tank's Shock Cannon blast radius gain +4 to Reflex saves, a successful save reduces damage by 75% (three-quarters rounding up), and on a failed save only suffer 75% (three quarters) damage instead. PDC: +2 [B]Ultra Capacitors[/B] These self-replicating ultra capacitors reduce reload time of weapons and systems. On the siege tank these change the weapon systems from semi to semi and automatic in assault mode, and the 120mm Shock Cannon changes to single instead of 1 per 2 rounds. PDC: 17 [B]Vanadium Plating[/B] A different type of armour plating for the vehicle. Adds +1 hardness and +5 hit points. This can be applied 3 times, with penalties and bonuses stacking. PDC: 21 (Mil +3) [B]Regenerative Bio-Steel[/B] A new type of hull plating that was developed by Egon Stetmann aboard the Hyperion after studying the cellular structure of Zerg organisms.

The following round the vehicle is instantly repaired 5d6+5 hit points, but none of its systems are usable until the following round. Usable once, must be completely replaced after use. PDC: 30. [B]Jump Jets[/B] The vehicle is fitted with jets that give it limited flight, mostly used for getting up or down cliffs. The vehicle can raise up or down up to 100 feet and move 50 feet horizontally as a move action, requiring a successfully Drive check DC 16 without any environmental or combat penalties. PDC: 23 [B]Spider Mine Dispenser[/B] This device attaches to the back of the vehicle and holds 12 spider mines. Deploying a spider mine requires the vehicle to be stationary and takes a full round to deploy. PDC: 20 (Mil +3) [B]Spider Mine mk2[/B] These mines are improved with a stronger frame, better explosive pattern, although with slightly less damage. With ability to burrow into the ground to conceal itself, fitted with motion, IFF and visual sensors to detect targets. Once a target enters its range, it quickly unburrows and rushes towards the target, exploding. Each mine is size small, about the size of a small to medium sized dog, with 8 hit points, Defense 16 while unburied. It can detect targets within 50 feet and unburies itself as a free action that does provoke an attack of opportunity when a target is within 30 feet, rushing to the target with a speed of 60 ft, making a touch attack with +6 bonus to attack rolls, dealing 4d6 fire and slashing damage to a 20 foot radius, Reflex DC 18 for half, except the target struck makes no save.

PDC: 20 per mine [B][SIZE=5]Option[/SIZE] Graduating Range[/B] This upgrade for the Heavy Siege Tank increases the range increment of the 200mm Shock Cannon while in siege mode if it is attacking the same target for multiple rounds. After each successful attack against a target that is out more than 2 range increments, the range increment is improved by 50 feet for the next attack, to a maximum of +250 feet. This bonus lasts for 10 rounds after reaching maximum bonus, or the first missed shot before that time. PDC: 26 Mil +3 [B][SIZE=5]Exidium Siege tank[/SIZE][/B] Exidium siege tanks are an attempt to create a far more mobile artillery unit developed by the Dominion of Man years after the destruction of the Hybrid Zerg-Protoss creatures. Exidium have a frame that looks like a thicker Diamondback with four wheels in outriggers. The turret mounts a smaller pair of plasma cannons than the Arclite siege tank, along with an anti-aircraft missile launcher to protect against one of the greatest weaknesses of the siege tanks. Instead of a Shock cannon the plasma cannons turn into, the Exidium instead has an Volcano plasma cannon, completely reducing the dependence on physical ammunition, except for the missiles for defense. For added defense, the Exidium features a shield generator, combined with the lack of physical ammunition for its main weapon, gives the Exidium greater staying power in the battlefield, able to roam with only a few light escorts, set up ambush points, then quickly move to another ambush point before any retaliatory attacks. The transformation system, similar to the Arclite's, the wheels angle out, stabilization pylons deploy, the body lowers, and the turret modifies to create a larger turret for heavier damage with large blast area. The Exidium Siege Tank is 4 squares long (20.5 ft), 4 square wide (18.2 ft), weighing 35 tons, with a crew of 3 with full cover.

While in assault mode, it is a pair of 70mm plasma cannons, dealing 9d6, 20x2 fire damage, ignoring 15 points of hardness/DR. When the siege tank switches to siege mode, the weapon changes to the 150mm Volcano Cannon, firing a large plasma round that detonates upon impact dealing 10d10, fire damage, to all within 25 foot radius, Reflex save DC 20 for half. Targets that more than 10 ft long covered within the blast radius take an additional 50% more damage for every 10 ft within the blast radius. The Shock Cannon can attack targets out to 20 range increments, but can't attack anything within 100 feet of the vehicle. [B]Transform[/B] The siege tank can change from assault mode, functioning as a tank using the plasma cannons, using stats above. As a move equivalent action can change to siege mode, becoming immobile and activates the Volcano Cannon, plus its Hardness increases to 25, can't make use of the driver's Dex bonus to Defense but uses the driver's Class bonus to Defense increased by 50% (rounding down). The driver can change between the two modes once per round. [/QUOTE]
