Overview

No one knows where the design concept for the Goblin originated, but it appeared either during the final years of the so-called Age of War or the early first Star League. The Goblin’s production was taken over by Johnston Industries towards the end of the First Succession War.

Capabilities

Instead of mounting a bulky autocannon or cumbersome missile units, the Goblin’s main weapon is a large laser. The energy weapon possesses both good range and firepower without the need to carry ammunition. The BlazeFire Systems Large Laser lacks the long barrel of an autocannon, allowing for a compact turret design that is not hindered by tight quarters. The BlazeFire targeting and tracking system has optional link-ups for the rest of the tank’s three-man crew so that one of them can fire if the gunner becomes disabled, but the MiniGun can only be fired by the driver. The Goblin’s most interesting feature is the Infantry Compartment in the rear of the tank. Large enough to hold seven infantrymen and their equipment or one support weapons team, the compartment is surprisingly spacious and reasonably comfortable. With organic infantry support and a turret design not hindered by a long barrel, the Goblin is an excellent urban combat vehicle.
