Gun-Launched ATGM

Ordnance 💣 Heavy Munitions 💥
HEAT Shell

Gun-launched ATGMs represent an evolution in tank warfare, allowing armoured vehicles to strike out at distances far beyond those intended of their guns, and with unerring accuracy. However, the models of armoured vehicles equipped with cannons capable of firing these bleeding-edge munitions is quite limited in the mid-1960s.

Gun-launched ATGMS always possess the Smart Munition and Big Game Hunter attributes.

Game Stats

When employing generic gun-launched ATGMs:

  • Reduce EXP-DMG by half.
  • Apply full PEN.
  • Reduce the Frag Rules rating by one level.
    • For example, if a 105mm HE shell would be treated as a Heavy Explosive, a 105mm HEAT shell would be treated as a Medium Explosive.
  • Apply the bonuses for Big Game Hunter.

As gun-launched ATGMs are Explosive, their PEN is not affected by distance. However, be aware that certain types of armour are HEAT Resistant.
Gun-launched ATGMs require specialised, electronic Fire Control Systems (FCS) and as such are considered a type of Smart Munition.
