HAG
« on: December 17, 2008, 01:47 am »

If there is not already one, or this is not it, the HAG should be the main artillery unit for CIS....you can look at the article on it here: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Heavy_Artillery_Gun
Approved
-really the only artillery that the CIS had

I reckon it should be really bad at hitting moving targets, slow moving itself but difficult to take out. basically buildings are it's specialty and any unit of reasonable speed can get to it without being hit requiring it to be defended unlike some of the faster Artilleries that EAW has atm.

It sounds like a good idea. I like the HAGs but hate having to shoot them in SF; they're just so damned armored! 3-0

Heavy armor works, but as for the people talking about MPTL's armor being weak, I think they were supposed to be lightly armored to prevent strain on the engines and treads and they could move faster. The range lets you get one or two rounds off, but you should move it as soon as you can. create a moving target. Units like that are the point in fade and fade pincher attacks.

Well, the MPTL looks like it should be able to fire on the move.  The fire tubes can pivot and if you just take out the concealment doors, it should be able to fire on the move.

Off topic Mirshe. If your going to make a seperate request, create a new topic in land requests.
But still, I think it has something to do with recoil as to why it has to deploy.

i dont think its that.

i think it was for accuracy. Its almost impossible to fire artillery when the angle of your guns are constantly changing due to unlevel terrain.

That's true too. I guess with the aid of targetting computers and considerable skills and exceptional reflexes, it could be done, but not many have that ability.

no they're not; they're more like Melee tanks; they got in close and barraged with rockets from point-blank. Their rockets really didn't have good range. If you watch in episode II, the hailfires all charge the republic tanks at high speed; not something artillery would do.
