Designer Notes
The Ostrogoth is a light self-propelled gun designed to provide fire support to units in small engagements or skirmishes. Unlike the Northern Tyburr design, which uses a field gun that allows it to act as a direct fire unit, the Ostrogoth is purely a fire support vehicle and is not intended for direct confrontation with the enemy. The principal objective of the design team was to preserve the mobility of the vehicle since it needed to operate near the battlefield and would have to frequently change positions. The lower chassis and drive train share many parts with the standard Hun light tank, making it easier to maintain in the field. The main gun is a 75mm electro-thermal cannon capable of firing a large variety of ammunition. The ammunition is partially stored in the turret itself to ensure fast reloading during salvo firing. Large armored doors at the rear of the vehicle allow a few able men to resupply the unit with shells in only a few minutes.
