3/5 stars. Cheap and cheerful. Won't last long, but might get you where you need to be.
Background.
This is the Solar Auxilia equivalent of the rhino. Mass produced and modular this is an armoured personnel carrier that sees use across the galaxy in all sorts of terrain and conditions.
Strengths.
The major attraction here is the points cost. It really is genuinely priced nicely and competitively. But for those points, you basically get what you pay for. The movement rate of 15 is nice enough, and the transport capacity of 10 is adequate without being brilliant.
Weaknesses.
AV=11 at best. AV=10 at the rear. This vehicle will melt fast if it comes under fire.
The transport capacity is lacking as well. On the bright side, if you disembark all at once in a small blob you still get to fire all the same despite it lacking an assault ramp - which is actually kinda an advantage I'd suggest.
Builds.
Aurox (30 points).
Yes, I'm going for the naked version here as my preferred build. Sometimes the search lights will be useful if you have other vehicles that can take advantage. The pintle mounted weapon options are adequate, but you're probably not realistically going to make too much use of them.
