Dragon "Cybertank"
The Chinese never fielded cybertanks in the wars against the Pan-European Federation and Nihon. Around the time of the development of the American Mark II, however, China began investigating the possibilities of giant tanks. Short on funds and long on people, it built a manned supertank, instead of developing the sophisticated AI systems of Ogres. The Dragon was for some time believed to be a cybernetic fighting vehicle similar to an Ogre, but the capture of one unit by Nihon forces brought an end to the myth and great embarrassment to China.
Note: The appearance of this Dragon is entirely my idea. It has the following stats:
Cost: 50 points
Weapons: 1 Main Battery (4/3 D4), 4 Early Secondary Batteries (3/2 D2), 6 AP guns.
Movement: It begins the game with 30 treads and 3 movement (like a Mk. II).
Special: Weapons hit by a D result cannot fire during that Dragon's next turn. Further D results, however, do not destroy weapons.
