Arstotzka doesn't gain any benefit from it at this point, and I doubt we could put an even larger gun on a smaller vehicle at this stage.

As someone said, we've currently got a massive advantage in the city due to home ground and urban combat. Unless I'm mistaken, vehicles suffer massively in urban combat,  and CQC, ambushes and sniping rules. They rely on their vehicles,  and we lead in the other three.

So, whilst making land back in the desert would be nice,  we don't really need to. Conversely, taking the jungle and the mountains would naively help us resources wise.

We have recoilless gun technology and develping it further is a nice way to do it. Focusing on good technologies is a nice way to do it. Small, nimble armored car armed with it can be deadly in city, jungles and useful to push back in Desert

I am sure that we will not take mountains, no matter what we will design. They have tanks now

Should we got that  ore, I would support fighter, but now we can't afford a proper metal fighter.

It can't be any more expensive than what the Breaker is now.

The car would not be useful in the city, for the same reason Arstotzkan vehicles won't be. And how would Arstotzka used their tanks in the  mountains?

Jusk like we used tanks when we had 1 point of mountain left.

I doubt they had effective AT then. Or if they did, we ended up countering them.

Hippos and Rhinos are not  good AT weapons to counter tank advantage.

Vehicles are far from being useless in cities

I believe that very expensive fighter will do us little good.

Also, we can go for assault rifle, useful on all fronts but I prefer to revise MK-47 to be smaller instead of spending a full design action

So, sports - Tiger themed, or something else to surprise people?

So any consensus here? Urban fighting is something new to us.

Actually, we do have some experience in urban combat. There were some small towns in the plains which we fought in for a bit, before they got levelled by artillery.

at least not for the state of the arc equipment.

I fear their tanks and planes, but sadly anything AT is becoming too toxic to deploy.
