Subject: Another rigger question
Date: Mon, 11 Sep 1995 16:55:12 MESZ
I once created a rigger with a somewhat modified WK II Stallion. When i tried
to equip it with a popup turret i was not shure whether the turret itself
was equipped with visual sensors or not. After reading the paragraph about
turrets thoroughly i read something like >needs place because of the feed for
the normallight videosensor< (sorry, no official citing, because the RBB is
back home :) ). But the Stallion had sensors rating 3 which i would say contains
also some lowlight and IR sensors. So i came up to a solution for myself:
Fixed mounts or firmpoint mounts with a very restricted arc use the sensors of
the vehicle itself whereas turret mounted weapons (wider firing arc) have sensors
of there own (with at least rating 0 because of normallight video). If you want
better aiming equipment you have to buy additional sensors for the turret itself.

Does that sound reasonible?

Suggestions and comments welcome !
(But be kind with me, i have a flameophobia :) )
