AGM R&D #1 -{Moving Mountain Design}-
The Azguardian Galactic military lives in mountain cities, as do all Azguardians for that matter, but some places are unhospitable for them to live in for too long, so long ago, the Azguardian gods created flying mountains to live in. In legend they were destroyed in the great war, But modern day science has created the Moving mountain, a mountain-home for an entire city, lifted up on massive treads, used to get over obstacles by shooting them with special frontall guns, and a computer programmed to asses the mountains' ability to move over obstacles and knows what to shoot. This Seemingly complexe system is not, mearly a mountain hollowed out after the centuries, moved onto treads, and outfitted with computer stuff. The military has decided to convert several of these mountains to moving fortresses for land assaults. Only certain mountains were chose, specifically hollowed out with specially modified elements of laser technology, and built to special specifications. The main purpose of the design is to be able to crush enemy bases and land forces, and to provide optimal defence to infantry forces. After the Battle Of Krakken, the generals decided to get straight to the point, and designed a wapon not to be impeeded by enemy movments or cover, and to strike fear into the oppositions' hearts. To get to another planet, the mountain is out-fitted with a heat shield (not one like a ray-shield, but a special outer layer resistant to heat) which is removed upon landing, and a set of rockets, or whatever it is we use to travle around in space on. they are powerfull enough to push the mountain around in space. when travaling through hyperspace, the mountain is hooked up to a capital ship at least 2/3rds the size by a set of locking mechanisms, and some thought is being put into creating a MkII capable of traveling through hyperspace on its' own. The mountain itself is highly powerful, but suffers from the distinct weakness to enemy fighter-craft.
Name/Model# : Mountain Assault Siege Unit (Masu)
Designer/Manufacturer : Azguardian Labratories
Combat Designation : Heavy assault mobile fortress
Scale of vehicle: mountinous
Height : 2000 meters (roughly)
Length : 1600 meters (roughly)
Crew : 980
Skeleton Crew : 720
Troops : 1500 soldiers, 50 vehicles (small to medium size)
Cargo Capacity : Not too much really, not dezined to carry around stuff
Weapons : 12 anti-fighter lasers, eight mortars to launch proton bombs, 8 turbo laser turrets on each side (32 total) assorted positions for infantry to fire from behind cover, four ground-to-ground missle slots on each side (16 total) a dozen laser-turrets on each side (ground to air or ground guns)
Maximum Speed : 5 miles per hour (really slow)
Manoeuvrability : NOT MUCH
Cover of Vehicle : Total, unless outside, then about three quarters to half
Shields/Body Strength : About ten meters of rock wall protects to inside, and slight ray-shielding
Special Abilities : non really,
Note: due to the difficulty of designing such a thing, I will extend design time by ten days: 50 days.
Other note: maybe an extra three days to build it, considering the difficulties of finding a good mountain?
Last note: first R&D device, so sorry if it sounds utterly crazy.
