RFE Underwater movement for Support Vehicles with environmental sealing. #3821

Open Gribbly1 opened 2 years ago

Gribbly1 commented 2 years ago

Support vehicles with the environmental sealing chassis modification should be able to enter depth 1+ water in the same way as Mechs, driving along the bottom - at risk of breaches as normal.

Please could you take a look at the viability of implementing this in Megamek?

I raised a rules question on the CGI forum regarding the equivalent Combat Vehicle chassis modification, based upon the existence of the Rommel and Ajax 'Sealed' variants.

Both combat vehicles and support vehicles with sealed chassis can move underwater.

Non-naval superheavies should also be able to enter depth 1 water without chassis modification, p190 Tac Ops AU&E.
