Battle Ogre Mk3?!?
I've NEVER seen the Battle Ogre Mk2 and Mk3 in ANY of my SMACX games! Has anyone ever seen them in a game?

Finding a Mk3 early in the game might seem a bit unbalancing, though.

Oh, I've seen both of them. I wish I'd remember the stats (I'm sure someone else will produce them soon enough), but they are definitely there.

I don't think getting a Mk2 or Mk3 in early game is even possible. You'd have to pop a pod in the latter stages of the game for that to happen.

I seen a few dozen MkIIs and 2 MkIIIs, I supect there avialbility is tied to either year or more likely tech level, and most pods are gone before you get to there.

I've only ever seen up to Mark II. Unfortunately. Those Mark III ones look cool.

Got the MK3 once against the AI, didn't do much good though since it was an ocean away and my choppers had killed most of the enemy by then.... Still it does look REALLY cool just sitting in the centre of your main bases

Mk1 is 6r-3r-1 police
Mk2 is 12r-8r-1*2 police + dissociative wave
Mk3 is 30-12-3*3 police + dissociative wave

Can someone post a picture of a Mk3 - I've never seen one, and now I really want to.

/me digs up this thread to point out that Frankychan apparently typed his post in the wrong window.
