[evilone]

Muchos danka 'Swede'ey Dojn yew be warryin none, dat big ol Ponyack can take som hits, an it gonna be disshin some out toos. Cant be rveallin toomush toomsoon (shrooom shroom), but you gots a bit of a points bout aiimin the entire vehakcle given the envireoments, howeevers, part of me plan is inspired by a hero of mine from WW2, namely Hans Ulrich Rudel, who toasted at least 500 Russky tanks with his Ju87 with a 37mm cannon below each wing. Really cool how he would spot a tank, start firing machine gun tracers at the tank, aiming his entire Stuka (my favorite plane, btw)to get on target, and when them tracers was all over dat tank--WHOOSH, WHOOSH!! away wit them 37s.

Oh, an btw 'Swede'ey, my weapons aint broked so why would dey need ta be fixed ..........

You'all are really gettin carried away with this?aint'cha? I'm really wishin I want so dub so's I cud learn howta post pics! Your havin TOO much fun! An I wanna play too! Oh well, mebbe we cud make this a yearly thing an I'll be able to play NEXT year! Oh, an ######'n, ya BETTER have them guns fixed or ya will be inna fix!!! Udell was able to fight in 3 different dimensions, you can only fight in 2, so's ya better make some a them guns all swively an such!

[diymirage]

######'n, your weapons SHOULD be mounted in a Turret on some kind, to allow a 360 degree field of fire. Otherwise you must aim the ENTIRE vehicle at the opposing force.You wouldn't be able to fire an an enemy who was beside or behind you with a fixed weapon. It might have been better if you had mounted it on the trunk lid firing over the roof, or placed it on the roof,in a lower profile mounting fixture, to keep it from being to top heavy. What happens if the bad guy is on your immediate left? you'll need to have sideways mounted weapons to compensate for the immobility of the forward firing weapon. Just some observations from a "neutral" party. Just call me the "Swede"

my flamethrower is mounted in a turret

it has a full 360 degree radius

several thousands in farenheit though

Swivel mounted weaponry? Um.......................no. In my ultra-humble and well thought out opinion, to keep with the "spirit" of Deathrace, I'm not gonna be doing that. In Deathrace there is a driver and a navigator. There's no room for a gunner, and neither driver nor navigator would have the time to devote to turning the weapons and aiming them while doing their primary job. It's up to the driver to train the hardmounted weapons on the opponent in front, and navigator to deploy aft defenses.

But maybe I'm thinking too much into this. But that's what I do.
