It almost seems like it's supposed to drive the front onto the edge of an embankment to correctly angle the top so that the turret can rotate horizontally on a level plane. Unless the turret is meant to rotate all wonky I mean why not.
I would have to check the date of the TRO printing but I know the 3060 book came out in the mid-late 90's so if the Sicarius tank predates that then you have your answer.
@@CriticalRocket isn’t that true for pretty much every tank in BT short of the demolisher? Hell waffle stomping tanks has been a mech past time since the Mackie.
Tons in BT don't make sense...an Abrams MBT is 70+ tons....and it's smaller than this thing by far. Either BT had some weight system change that's never mentioned. Or everything just weighs leas but take up more mass, like FF armor functions.

Lyran whispers can very quickly get out of hand.
I love the ANGRY DOOR STOP!
I love the awkward look of this thing.
@@CriticalRocket I was disappointed that they never had a larger version of this with Arrow IV systems. Might have to make one myself.
The turret reminds me of Johnny Five from Short Circuit.
When Elementals get drunk, they have competitions to see who can tip these over. They then run away giggling.
Turret on a wedge, simplicity itself.
The final form of the Austin Allegro
haha
That design is certainly something
Looks like it has the clan version of the Atlas's lrm20. With the 5 launchtubes
Now I have heard about the face in the turret that is all I can see when I look at this one
Reminds me of the Space Marine Whirlwind, though with it's ass up in the air
Oh well, at least this one can go uphill. So long as the grade isn't too steep....
You, shall, not, pass! *STOMP* Oh...well, I guess you will pass

The Abrams tank is 54 tons, so I figure it's about that size but with a different shape so probably less length more height.
Yeah the hatch art on Tanks in Battletech is often far too large. Artists are not always the best at scale with sci-fi designs.
I like it.
The Clans are turning 40K on us I see. Does painting it red make it go faster?
The canopian battle powder is strong with this one 😂 .... just saying it looks busy and tough😊
The resemblance to a Forge World “Sicarius” tank is uncanny. Which came first?
I would have to check the date of the TRO printing but I know the 3060 book came out in the mid-late 90's so if the Sicarius tank predates that then you have your answer.
Lets be honest. Its bringing twin clan LRM20’s. What else does it need?
True, point blank and this thing is having a great time.

Um ...one thing...those don't look like LRM 20s...?

The M1 Abrams is only 54-64 Metric Tons actually, depends on version of course, but no version is 70+ tons at this point.

@Ishlacorrin A short ton is 2k pounds which is what MOST NORMAL PEOPLE USE. METRIC tons for a US tank? ROLF...you silly EU punk.
Never liked how it's got LRM 20's...but with LRM 5 launch tubes??...
Really fast reloading tubes? MWO treats clan lrm's that way as a stream of missiles, while IS lrm's fire in volley.
The Atlas's had only 5 tubes for the LRM's. It was rapid firing cluster's of five
