The Norman class of grav tank currently in service with Alston League forces is
a relic design which shares many components with the Viking class grav armoured
personnel carrier.
The main weapon is a respectable 90Mj rapid pulse fusion gun but endurance is
somewhat limited because of the size of this weapon. Nearly seventy percent of
the original cost of the vehicle is also tied up in this weapon.
