2 Arges hits!
The boats fire again, with renewed vigor! Missiles tear the kaiju apart, flaming chunks showering those behind the targets.
10 Spawn destroyed!
With the sudden speed of Vortex, Jagdhund's next shots barely clip it, pinging off its rear.
Vortex takes 1 Strike!
The kaiju hisses again, continuing its mad dash forwards! At last, the spawn respond, returning to their surge towards land--
Which, to their misfortune, brings them into firing range.
Overwatch activated! Roll...
1d10+2 for tanks
4x 1d10+2 for arty
5x 1d10 for mortars
All hit on 6s
No hit locations needed.
Vortex is 24 units from your ground conventionals, 14 from Jagdhund, 15 from boats, 11 from scouts. Spawn are now 17/7/8/4 from said forces.
Current Spawn: 30

When the mortars hit, it's all over. The artillery barrage tears through half the kaiju, before the storm of shrapnel rips everything else to shreds.
All Spawn destroyed!

Tanks can't swim. Mortars can't either. Arty can't move. AKBs can't shoot while treading water.

We really should've gone with the Russian tanks back then. We wouldn't have this kind of problem with them.

What is Jagd's maximum charge range? I say he pulls out his axe if he can get in range. Also, swimming tanks may be a future investment, strap a couple of torpedoes on the side of the thing and ram underwater kaiju with it.

14 units if the thrusters are used (meanwhile, Tacit has a maximum of 19). However, that's assuming you roll 5s for both of your dice, which is only an 11% chance.What is Jagd's maximum charge range?

Also, the general consensus/in-story canon is that Jagdhund is a she.
Also also; submarines. You're thinking of submarines. Possibly amphibious ones.

Sounds good.
Submarines are something that have been part of my personal-wish since forever, but I've largely been refraining from trying to sneak them onto the weekly action list thus far because 1) There have been far more important and pressing matters that have taken priority; 2) Part of staying on top of and organizing the weekly downtime list and getting a vote that includes the stuff you think really are top priority involves avoiding pushing your personal wishlist goodie items over things that the group would really, really like to have (see also: laser research from the past week; 3) Right now our focus is on the inland mountain breach, which submarines are going to do squat to help with, doubly so since aquatic cons can't be pumped out by our con factories.

Like I said, torpedoes on a tank, not exactly a submarine. Fill the tank with ammunition and send it at and underwater kaiju. Ouch.
Edit: Thinking about it, if we built containers, filled them with explosives and strapped some boat engines to it....

I'm pretty sure we already have some kind of torpedo weapon; at the very least some kind of substitute for missiles we can drop off of helicopters into the water to shoot at submerged Kaiju.

No, I'm fairly sure he means swimming tanks.
Tank variants on the Duck concept, then?
What about Submarines with the ability to drive around on land?
