Designer Notes
The pride of several Northern artillery units, the Verder is a heavy self-propelled gun based on the hull and drive train of the Aller main battle tank. The lower chassis remains the same, but the upper hull of the MBT has been extensively modified to accomodate the Verder's characteristic 200mm artillery gun and its associated machinery. The large Aller turret is gone, replaced by a sloping gun mount and armor plating. The gun mount is fixed forward in azimuth but is capable of almost 70 degrees elevation. In addition to its large gun, the Verder carries a single Sergon Optics laser turret for anti-aircraft defense. The removal of the main turret has increased the effective armor profile of the vehicle, and so the Verder does not carry the additional armor plating of the Aller. Shells are automatically loaded from a six-shell cassette, allowing the entire salvo to be fired in under ten seconds. The cassette is mechanically extracted from the gun and replaced by a new one. The process is automated, but prone to jamming. Additional crew are often assigned to increase the rate of fire of the unit. They do not ride with the Verder, but follow in an APC which also carries additional ammunition and spare parts for the battery.
