La Tortuga

[vexwerewolf]

New GM to Lancer here

One of my players is playing Calendula and is frustrated that the shotgun guy Tortuga has a larger sensor range than he does

His 8 vs Tortuga’s 15

And I can’t give him an answer why, it doesn’t bother me but it does him.

Can you give some insight into the range difference please?

Why Calendula’s is relatively short and Tortuga’s is large

Do you want an in-universe (Watsonian) or out-of-universe (Doylist) explanation?

The Watsonian explanation probably has something to do with the way the Calendula's parallel-space manipulation tech distorts the path of incoming electromagnetic waves or somesuch technobabble. The Tortuga, meanwhile, is designed for close-in combat and command support.

The Doylist explanation is that the Tortuga is a low-mobility frame which, if fitted according to its doctrine, doesn't have very much to do if there are no enemies nearby, so can still hand out Bolsters, Lock Ons and other tech attacks, whereas the Calendula is a high-mobility frame meant for CQB so it has a much easier time getting in range for its abilities.

Just finished this comic cover for the peerless @vexwerewolf ! This was a blast, I got to design an in-universe propaganda comic cover for their Lancer adventure In Golden Flame!
