  11.    What this all seems to be leading to, with the VR top-mounted tanks and
  12. all, seem to be a line of Fusion-vehicles of some sort...
  13.  
  14.    New types of vehicles for Battletech could be:
  15.  
  16.    1:VR controlled rapid-assist tanks,
  17.    2:Votoms (Someone mentioned these), level one small mecha...
  18.    3:Mechs with track-wheels instead of legs? Faster, shorter, same
  19. abilities?
  20.    4:'Tall' Vehicles of some sort?
  21.  
  22.    Oh, I don't know... It just seems to me that in a 1000 years we'd
  23. probably have some newer vehicles than just Battlemechs...
