It would almost have to have a barage being that that's basiclly all it did.

It was a fast-attack tank...able to get in, blow the [censored] out of everything, and get out.

Basiclly that's what it was designed to do. Although, on Geonosis, that didn't work too well. (hehehe.) They tended to want to show that blowing up was their role. Although one of them did mess up an AT-TE pretty bad.

Used PROPERLY...the Hailfire is pretty good. Used like they were on Geonosis, though...which was en masse rushes against heavy armor columns... they suck.

well im just waiting fer a mod here to know wich abilities would it have?
barrage?
flank speed?
increased damage?
what?

Mandalor Vipeer · « **Reply #10 on:** January 01, 2009, 10:35 am »

not having a barage type firing type defeats it's purpose, so that shouldn't be a special ability I think, but throwing in a burst of speed, and reducing the accuracy while doing so would work pretty good. And note the already low accuracy of them anyway.

SoulPain (FanEAW) · « **Reply #11 on:** January 02, 2009, 12:11 am »

true, good idea, very good, STILL waiting fer a mod...

Solar · « **Reply #12 on:** January 02, 2009, 09:37 pm »

A charge type ability would be good. increased speed and no negative things.

SoulPain (FanEAW) · « **Reply #13 on:** January 04, 2009, 07:52 am »

good idea! YAY A MOD!!! lol...

for some reason i feel like the hailfire should be like a MPTL but can fire on the go. we can make it fire less projectiles to keep it balanced

Solar · « **Reply #15 on:** January 04, 2009, 11:14 am »

but they have an artillery, the HAG.

D · « **Reply #16 on:** January 04, 2009, 05:28 pm »

i dunno, the hailfire isnt artillery per se.

it moves too quickly and is definitely not accurate enough

In my eyes it's a fast attack vehicle that's highly effective against groups of infantry, small vehicles and some tanks, and some smaller airborne targets.

Solar · « **Reply #18 on:** January 04, 2009, 09:03 pm »

infantry???

ok, according to wookiepedia it could destroy a whole platoon of infantry. Msut have some pretty nasty missles on it.

ah, small blaster.

thats the point i was trying to make with the mptl comparison: even one of the torps from an mptl is pretty damaging. And the missiles move kinda erratically (but perhaps not as erratic as the hailfire).
