To bring these down a bit (but still keep them good), I propose the following changes.

1) When a GC is hit with an attack that causes Instant Death, it takes D3 +1 wounds instead. This will make ID weapons do a bit more work and be more reliable, since the will do a minimum of double wounds.

2) the '6' result on a D-weapon only causes D3 + 2 wounds/hull points that ignore saves. This makes it min3-max5, thereby killing any "normal' vehicle and most MCs, but preventing it for "one-shooting" a Knight or other superheavy.

3) Stomp: tone done the '6' result by making it str10/AP1 no saves of any kind, but ramp up the '2-5' results by making them str6/AP3 ignores cover. That way the '2-5' result is more reliable, yet the "6' result is not so devastating.

thoughts?

Make GCs not immune to poison. They all have double saves anyway.

Make S8/9/10 cause multiple wounds to make them worth taking again.

I kinda like that GC's are a bit more resilient to Poison since their body mass is much bigger and it should take more Poison to affect them.
That being said, making it a flat "6" to wound is a bit harsh. Maybe it should be -1 to the 'to wound', making Poison (4+), into Poison (5+) for example.

I don't like anything about GMCs, but your suggestion is more reasonable than flat "6".
