I've been thinking about creating some new vehicles for Halo: Custom Edition, so here's a few of my concepts:


Name: M12X1 Anti-Armor Vehicle
Description: A variant of the famed "Gauss 'Hog". The main cannon has been replaced by a
turret-mounted laser.
Armaments: Weapon/Anti-Vehicle Model 6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: M800 "Snub Tank"
Description: Shares many similarities with the standard Scorpion, although on a somewhat
smaller scale. The turret has been reduced to a less elongated state, and the
barrel has been drastically shortened. While it's main gun is slightly less
powerful, it makes up for this with a decreased load time (2.5 seconds) and
superior speed and maneuverability. It's shells are also more accurate,
although it is suggested to aim above the target when firing at extreme range.

The tread bogeys have been pulled in closer to the main chassis. The antennae
and external sensor array have been removed, forcing the user to rely more
on visual confirmation.
Armaments: 75mm Cannon, Integrated M247 GP .30 Caliber Coaxial Machine Gun
Other Features: Increased speed and manueverability, at the cost of armor plating.

Notes: The flat section utilized for transporting additional treads will be removed,
and the angular nose section will be pulled back to fill the gap, reducing
the overall length of the vehicle.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: M808X "Stinger" Experimental Battle Tank
Description: A prototype variant of the Scorpion tank, utilizing Covenant weapon systems.
The standard 90mm cannon has been replaced by the tri-barelled cannons most
commonly found on Stationary Plasma Turrets, although many Stingers have
been outfitted with Covenant Flak Cannons. The coaxial gun has also been
replaced, and now features a mounted Class-2 Directed Energy Gun.
Armaments: Tri-Barelled Class-2 Energy Gun or Covenant Flak Cannon, Class-2 Energy Gun
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@Griff Snipe spot? I don't think weapons from the Late 1600's to Mid 1700's were accurate enough to have that kind of range. I did originally plan that you could go up to the crows nest, and I am still considering that, but in the age of Caribbean piracy there was no sniping.
