NEW WARGEAR

The following are unofficial vehicle upgrades and wargear that you might want to use in your games. Make sure that you and your opponent agree on their use beforehand though.

VEHICLE UPGRADES

Pintle Mount

Any vehicle with transport capability

20 points

Any vehicle with a troop transport capability may be equipped with a pintle-mount. This allows one model being carried by the transport to fire his weapon as if it were stationary, even if the transport had moved. The model is still subject to all other “Troops Firing From Vehicles” restrictions.

If the vehicle suffers a “Crew Shaken” or “Crew Stunned” result from vehicle damage, the model using the pintle-mount is also affected.

In addition, if the transport suffers an “Armament Destroyed” result from vehicle damage, the pintle-mount and the model using it may be chosen as one of the vehicle's destroyed `weapons'.

A model using a pintle-mount may embark and disembark as normal.

Power Field

Any ONE walker or tank

35 points

A power field is an invisible bubble of pure energy created by a large cumbersome generator. Because of its size and power requirements, a power field is normally mounted on a vehicle. It provides excellent protection against shooting damage, but unfortunately offers no protection against hand-to-hand combat attacks. Enemy models can easily bypass the energy field and strike the vehicle.

Power fields give a vehicle an invulnerable save of 4+ against all shooting attacks. This is taken after a vehicle is hit, but before any Armor Penetration is determined.

Power fields are useless against hits from hand-to-hand combat and the vehicle does not get a save.

A Power field may be purchased as a vehicle upgrade for any Tanks or Walkers (including Dreadnoughts).

WEAPONS & WARGEAR

Anti-Plant Missiles

All missile launchers in ONE squad

10 points per squad

This missile was developed as a defoliant to clear areas of vegetation that could act as cover to enemy troops. Anti-plant missiles have the following profile:

Range		Strength		AP	Notes
48"		Special		N/A	Heavy 1, Blast

All vegetation in the area effect of the missile is automatically destroyed. The missile cannot affect other models.

Anti-plant missiles may be fired from any missile launcher instead of a krak or frag missile. They are enough missiles to equip all of the missile launchers in a single squad.
