================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Wombat is that fire fighting vehicle you want to be around when you have fire and
    explosives near you.
    All its parts are build by local manufacturers.

Capabilities:
    Specially designed to cope with battle related fires, this  vehicle comes with considerable
    armor and equipment and a tracked chassis to negotiate rubble and wreckage.
    Five additional heat sinks are installed to cope with heat buildup (the program does not
    allow additional heat sinks without proper heat producing equipment)
    Using its bulldozer blade to claer a path through the mess it douses fires with its turret
    mounted fluidgun and special fire retarding 'ammo'.
    Alongside the fluidgun an armored searchlight rips the surrounding out of potential
    darkness.
    A two-ton compartment can carry firefighters and/or additional equipment and can also be
    used to drive rescued people back through fire.

Deployment:
    This vehicles are used on Abagnar in Kurita space but sales to surrounding worlds are
    ongoing.

Variants:
    A variant had been proposed with two fluidguns and either less tank-space or no compartment
    to double the flow rate.

That's a display bug that was reported to me. It uses the proper tonnage when designing, then displays it nice and wrong when viewing the readout. UI only thing, but I'll get it fixed. Wink

From a game mechanics point of view, the extra heat sinks would do nothing. You could alternatively devote that tonnage to more liquid storage and maybe a sprayer (or flamer) or two. That'd enhance the number of hexes you could firefight per turn as well as enhance the unstated capabilities as a coolant truck.

We have a house rule for that.
If using standard rules your variant sounds good.
I would take a second fluid gun (maybe front mounted) and additional ammo.
