27.72
Fuel Regen

Ground Movement

Air Speed

(The other stats are identical.)
It was fun for a short time to use double vulcan, the novelty wears of quickly however and I ended up feeling frustrated loosing some of the usual versatility with the burst secondary. There is no reason not to press both mouse buttons down and shoot like there's no tomorrow. At least this puts the Coolant ability in good use. I happen to use the ability more often then on the original Assault. Reading the description one could assume, that it's a slightly beefier Assault with increased ground speed, which is all I wanted, but you will lose boost speed and some of the fuel tank. In the end its nothing more then another rebalanced Assault with weak vulcans.
