My final lance of 2024!

 o/

These may be less random than they appear...

I hope everyone enjoyed the Christmas holiday yesterday (if you celebrate it). It was more or less just a random day off in the middle of the week for us, as we are celebrating on Saturday when we get Frankie back from his Dad. As such, I had a bit of paint time and finished off my armor lance for the 1st. Royal Cavaliers. 

The Sturmfeur didn't get a fancy base as you wouldn't see any of it anyways...

My usual want, is to field these as close to WYSIWYG as is possible (i.e.: with the autocannon equipped Hetzers). That said, I'm more likely to filed the Hetzers as the twin LRM 15 variants, with the Sturmfeur as the SRM version to both supplement the LRM output of the Hetzers with it's LRM 20 and to serve as a bodyguard, with its quartet of SRM-4s in the turret. Lastly, the Skulker can serve as a high speed spotter in the event that I want to try some indirect fire shenanigans.

  1. They look lovely, sir. I have a lot of time for the auxiliary stuff in Battletech!

  2. Having used them a few times (against you in fact LOL) I am a big fan of the SRM Hetzers. With 5 SRM Launchers even I could get decent damage output from them. Never really looked at the Sturmfeur variants though I've got 4 Sturmfeurs and 4 Ontos in progress at the moment.

  3. @Ragsta: Thanks!

    @Kushial: Normally I run the Hetzers as the AC-10 version, but you have surprised me a time or two with the missile variants. The SRM Sturmfeur is basically an all arounder, the base model once immobilized is a helpless target at short range. That said, it has enough armor to lob a few last volleys before it dies.
