A miitia truck
« on: August 07, 2016, 02:39:03 PM »

I made a Support Vehicle to design both the transport mule and its rocket launcher cousin (like the Katyusha and other trucks/MLR).
I hope I did get it right and if so, I will have to find a name for it.

Typical technical looks good

I'd be tempted to slow it to 4/6 then you can devote more to cargo space especially the mule variant

As for name how about the Donkey?  Them the mule variant could have a colourful nickname

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

I tried to stay close to some real military cargo and MLR trucks, hence the speed but this is an idea.

And for the name  ;D
