This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the
GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial
redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on
a website or the like. The files at omeyer.gmxhome.de are down until
I fix the automatic PDF generation, which should be one of these
days - see sourceforge.net/projects/gurpsml

Support Battlesuit Mk.IIIc v1.0 (TL10)
Copyright 2014 by Onno Meyer
The Mk.IIIc is a specialized suit for interstellar forces. With a pair
of heavy missiles, the Support Battlesuit can hurt AFVs and perhaps even
low-flying starships.
The Support Battlesuit is 9 feet tall. The twin missile tubes project
over the shoulders. The right arm contains a 5mm electromag gun against
soft targets -- the Mk.IIIc has no weapons against enemy suits. Usually
each platoon has just two of these specialized tank-hunters.
A full load of ammunition is $122,120.
