Hi!

Interesting question and response. I like Kelvin's reasoning, since the
magnetic field would latch on to the undercar, but since it floats it
would not do any damage. Making it immune to the magna cannon is not an
unbalancing issues sinc orks have flakwagons that could take the
overlord out more effectively.

What are peoples opinions on this?
