Leech Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Hehehehe, the Spartan sucks - and it looks horrible to boot :o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted November 20, 2002 Moderator Share Posted November 20, 2002 The Spartan looks ok, it's just not the sort of thing I'd ever want to pilot. I'll probably field it a few times though, just to see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leech Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I plan on using it at some point, because I want to make a Hughes-Marietta only force - just as a proof of concept unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bent brush Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I have found the Spartan to be very useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted November 20, 2002 Moderator Share Posted November 20, 2002 BB, how have you used it to see its effectiveness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 The mini is cool, but the question I have is whether the Drake in The Big Dance is supposed to be General Drake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrome Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 The Drake in TBD isn't General Drake. It'd be kinda hard for him to run his own Merc unit when he's working for the Templars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadinbrzezinski Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 This is a great mini... indeed, useful for many a sci fi RPGs and for the most part... great for CAV. Now need to get that one in hand. Nadin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Thats what I was thinking too Chrome. It just threw me for a loop the first time I read it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Yell Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 You folks are so wrong about the Spartan. They are the closest thing to an Elemental in this game. Cheap, fast, and deadly in close. They are very tough on uber-CAV's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Froggy the Great Posted November 22, 2002 Moderator Share Posted November 22, 2002 Put a Spartan in section with an APC with two light infantry. Run them both up, have the APC stop in base contact, drop out the infantry, and run the Spartan up and hav eit initiate CA while the others support. Viola! You have a musical instrum...er. A Damaged CAV! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 That could prove to be rather bothersome Frosch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted November 22, 2002 Moderator Share Posted November 22, 2002 Indeed. †To be bothersome is the stated intention of such a maneuver, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
