Description:
H.T.E. Triceratops is designed to move troops and artillery around the battlefield. Though it's a workhorse of any battle field, it can be used to carry ammo to frontline, evacuate injured personnel. Also bring mines or materials to anywhere it is required. This was the reason it was tracked, rather than repulse lift as if was damaged the sudden crash may damage what was inside. As a result of this it was not as fast or as maneuverable as other armoured personal carriers, though as result it came with better defence including a deflector shield to protect thick armour.

The troops were deployed from the rear of the, so they had the A.P.C. as cover. The two gunners, had access to thul reaper which helped cut down any infantry it may be facing, and a grenade launcher to help cover the crew members, as they got out. The infantry could also recharge spent power packs, and other H.T.E. equipment such as power armour and the such.

Hello, I'll be the factory judge reviewing your submission. If you have questions, please feel free to respond to this thread once we are underway.

Straightforward and efficient. Nice.

Can you possibly define the exact weight and size or your vehicle. This will have bearing on how fast the vehicle can go. Keep in mind that you have followed the template correctly, so this is more in the interest of discussing the mechanics of the submission itself.

Thanks.

Okay. So at that stated weight and length you claim the vehicle can move up to 150 KPH while using tracks. Going by the standard of the current APC of the USMC that's 50 KPH faster than a highly mobile and lightly armored APC.

Drastically reduce the speed of this vehicle if you're going to claim it's slow as a weakness (unless you know of APCs in SW that are much faster) with such a high armor rating while being tracked.

[member="The Major"] edited, I just reduced the template one as I was unsure what to write.

Please provide an armament rating. The cookie-cutters have not yet been updated to reflect proper balance, however the base template does include and require a rating. I apologize for the confusion.

Also, your company does not manufacture vehicles at present. I've seen the modification request, however that has a separate issue.

[member="Jamie Pyne"] I just found out on my other vehicle, I had neglected to update Vehicle manufacturing into it. It is currently in the company modification thread.

[member="Jamie Pyne"] I changed it to outer rim collation, as I think you are right and not done enough yet.
