Crossover The Greater Game (Babylon 5/BattleTech)

[AJW]

A thousand worlds at 18th century tech level, where all tech beyond that is in the hands of the benvolent Comstar, who alone is aloud to travel the stars.



Except their base, who simply want tech used to help and heal, not kill.

Basically they want absolute power and have been slowly undermining everyone for centuries to get it. Unfortunately for them the universe has gone and thrown the biggest monkey wrench you can imagine in there plans in the appearance of the Earth Alliance.

Impressive line up.

What does the EA Marauder config look like?

What does the EA Marauder config look like?

He hasn't put out anything on that, but he did describe the Stalker:

Article:

They [Stalkers] are pretty nifty, should be easier to build than the more humanoid assaults and make great gun platforms. These too are licence built with modified local tech. They keep the two Large Lasers as the EA doesn't have an equivalent, but the main firepower is four gatling pulse cannons. These things are going to be very bad news to anyone standing in front of them The SRMs will be swapped for Yellow Jacket missiles, which are the EA version of a TOW or hellfire, the LRM 10s probably are going to be where the new pulse cannons go, 2 on each side. And a rapid fire PPG for anti infantry work

I'm sure the galling pulse cannons will perform adequately against infantry!

 

[Doomsought]

I typically stat out rotary/gatling ppcs as the energy equivalent to an SRM-6, though since the EA pulse riffles are more avanced than PPCs, maybe closer to rotary light ppcs.
