well, they are loud, they blow up a lot of dust and debris, and they are expensive. \u00a0The LCAC is useful for its purpose, but I am just not convinced of a general land battle use case. \u00a0In any event, the rules will support such vehicles, so I wanted to paint up a company of them for play testing purposes. \u00a0These are hovering tanks from Reaper CAV.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:
