Does this pod really have 0 manoeuvrability or did someone simply forgot to type that in? Even the Super Capitals have 1, it is odd that the pod doesn't have any.

Probably an oversight. Thanks for pointing it out.

This was brought up before (when the vehicles were released). All the new CP vehicles have Man. 0.

Old thread for reference:

Vehicle stats will likely be looked at anyway prior to/during the combat period where vehicles are activated. So, since manoeuverabilty doesn't affect RM stats, nor anything currently used, it probably isn't worth the effort now, only to change later.
