Giovanni Assault Shuttle

Designer's Notes

This shuttle was designed to offer something to fight to our Valkyrie-piloting PCs. This entry is extremely simple due to its very simplified use.

Robotech Background

The combat shuttle would be right at home in a Sentinels campaign.

Macross II Background

Built by the Giovanni Empire before their rise to power, this shuttle is used extensively in the asteroid belt. The shuttle gave the Giovanni an advantage over their opponents. Though not a match for Valkyries, the shuttles were used in large numbers to form a flotilla.

In the New Samarkand campaign, these assault shuttles were still in use, though considered outdated by the Giovanni Empire. They served mostly as short-ranged transports.
