================================================================================================
Overview:
Intended to be as far back as necessary while participating in combat, the Alacorn (SD)
"Safety Dance" is a Clantech refit with high power and high value.
Capabilities:
This many Gauss Rifles in one place is always a priority. While a Chaff Pod can help apply
that firepower where it's needed most and thickened armor is valuable, the crew should know
when to cut their losses.
Variants:
When cGauss Rifles are unavailable, a common refit trades the hammerblow of full Gauss Rifle
POWER for the relatively lighter impact of the LGR. A C3 allows communication with spotters
for enhanced and terrifying accuracy at range. Don't underestimate the Light Gauss. It ain't
much, but it's honest work.jpg. It is safety-minded and durable, as an (SD) vehicle should
be.
Notable MechWarriors:
The "Men Without Hats" Battalion was formed by members of "Hat In The Ring" Battalion who
were thrown out of a nightclub (and the unit) for "Pogo-ing."
