MT vs. CT

Judas, I would agree with you if your example had been a soft target with a KE weapon. But, I think any weapon striking a tank and penetrating is going to shed a lot of energy as it penetrates - leaving behind a spray of molten metal and vapors. In the case of a laser, I think it will also torch the gases inside the tank on its way through to the other side - turning the vehicle into a convection oven for the occupants.

I picked up a copy of MT recently after loudly proclaiming how GDW betrayed all loyal Traveller fans by dumping the LBBs in favour of it. I'm imporessed enough that I'm converting my CT campaign to MT.

The ship/vehicle/unit/toaster design rules have me beat, though.

If you dig back, I've done a design "in the board" so that people have an example to work from.

Me, I'm going to use variant T20 for MMTU henceforth...
