the Sledgehammer
In either of its modes, the Sledgehammer is a one-man mobile missile platform. It can be configured in either a lower, treaded mode for off-road action, or a higher, wheeled mode for use on more level ground. This dark green vehicle has the following statistics and capabilities:
Body Armor (s): the Sledgehammer is built to take a beating. Its small, compact design makes it appear fragile until you take into account the sheer density of the vehicle. It has an effective m.s. of 10, and offers its occupant +2 protection from attack.
Communications Gear: the Sledgehammer is equipped with a gigahertz frequency, frequency wobbler clandestine operations radio system (and dual transceiver antennas). It has intensity 5 communications power (with a 100 mile range) that has intensity 10 signal encryption.
Lightning Speed (a): the Sledgehammer is pretty peppy. It can move at intensity 2 speeds in its treaded mode (around 45 m.p.h.), while in its wheeled configuration it increases this to intensity 3 (approximately 75 m.p.h.).
Missile Launcher (i): the Sledgehammer's sole armament in both modes is its rotating, double-barreled missile launcher. Its projectiles inflict intensity 12 damage when fired singly, adding a +1 if both are fired at (and hit) their target.
Shape Change (a): like all B.T.R. vehicles, the Sledgehammer has more than one configuration. It has the same raw capabilities in its treaded and wheeled modes, save for speed; the thing is much faster in its wheeled mode than in its treaded form.
