Quote from: Revision; Halberd Scythe mount adaptation
While the Halberd is an excellent anti vehicle weapon it isn't mounted on any of our vehicles. This revision corrects this by adapting a variant of the scythe to be capable of being mounted on existing scythe mounts on vehicles. Other changes include a conversion to a belt fed system rather than having it use magazines and the removal of the caelium cores used to lighten the weapon. This should make a cheaper variant that can lay heavy fire down on a target that requires no changes in order to be included on existing vehicles

Kingmaker Made

The Kingmaker is a fine infantry transport, but is out date with our newest technology. The protection in the driver compartment has its vision slits widened somewhat and replaced with k-wool infused clear resin. The promethium power system is upgraded to work with the power control systems of the sparkpack, and a magnetic induction coil is wrapped around the power core to capture any emitted magnetic fields. The propulsion system is converted from turbines into null steel capped grain aligned caelium, one on each side of the back of the kingmaker, and two on either side of the front. The armor on the bottom is thickened, as is the rest of the armor. In addition to the thicker steel, small layers of k-wool are added underneath the armor to absorb impacts, especially in the driver compartment.

Clarified window revision.

As Caliburn is actually Excalibur, I move my vote.

Industrialized Warfare: Abbera Thread / 1914 A.C. Hot Season (Strategy Phase)

Year 1914 AC Hot Season, Revision Phase


Proposal: Kingmaker Made - ARA-1912MP-APC-B "Caliburn"
Kingmaker Made

The Kingmaker is a fine infantry transport, but is out date with our newest technology. The protection in the driver compartment has its vision slits widened somewhat and replaced with k-wool infused clear resin. The promethium power system is upgraded to work with the power control systems of the sparkpack, and a magnetic induction coil is wrapped around the power core to capture any emitted magnetic fields. The propulsion system is converted from turbines into null steel capped grain aligned caelium, one on each side of the back of the kingmaker, and two on either side of the front. The armor on the bottom is thickened, as is the rest of the armor. In addition to the thicker steel, small layers of k-wool are added underneath the armor to absorb impacts, especially in the driver compartment.

Difficulty: Very Hard
Result: 6 (6+2-2) = Average

The Caliburn provides some minor improvements to our Kingmaker, but one thing needs to be made clear first.

Any time we've added coils to our engines in an effort to capture energy and improve efficiency the circuitry and wiring overloads, burns out, or melts down in rapid order. Turns out that this is due to the Gavrillium generating an electromagnetic field of it's own when placed in a strong enough electromagnetic field. While there are obviously many ways to implement this, for now we have focused on the Caliburn and as such further augmentation to engines and motors will have to be done another time.

Despite the setbacks involved with the project in regards to Gavrillium, things still managed to go fairly well. A K-Wool infused resin set behind the vision slits now provides the driver protection from wind, rain, and the occasional bullet. The propulsion system is completely redone, utilizing the newfound powers of Aligned Caelium and and C-Null Steel. Armor is thickened to 8-10mm in many locations, and a layer of K-Wool is sandwiched underneath it for further protection from enemy fire.

The gravitational propulsion of the Caliburn provides more precise controls and maneuvering than the Kingmaker's turbines as well as a bringing top speed to a possible 40km/h. It also draws more power, which is why each Caliburn carries spare SparkPacks to use as an auxiliary power supply.

Adding this much to the Caliburn without making cutbacks elsewhere winds up costing 5 Ore, 4 Gavrillium, 4 Caelium, 3 Kinetic Sheep, 2 Wood and 1 Chemical Compounds, making it a (NATIONAL EFFORT) and [complex] until we get a workable supply of Chemical Compounds.

[GM NOTE: The Wood reflects the cost for Resin. It's negligible in the Nike facemask, but the amount of resin needed here is significantly greater and so had to be represented in some way.]

Your work continues to intrigue us. The fact that once again you've given us something that doesn't yet work does not shake our confidence in your ability to turn it into something we can use. We are now set to engage the Salviosi in earnest at Harren City. This Strategy Phase you will fortify a sector as well as assign a resource to a node as per usual. You are also to submit and decide on both the "Reason We Fight" and Recruitment Poster challenges.

Let us hope we can end this war quickly.

IT IS NOW THE STRATEGY PHASE.
