The Hammer, based on the Army's now-famous Humvee all-terrain vehicle, is basically an enhanced, heavily armed, tan version of that vehicle. The Hammer first saw use on the Joe team in 1990, and stayed in service for several years after that. It possesses the following vehicular capabilities:

C Gd 10

S Rm 30

B Rm 30

P Gd 10

Armored Construction: the Hammer is built with a hardened, solid steel frame, a shrapnel-resistant passenger cover, and all-terrain, self-sealing tires; in other words, it's rather durable. This accounts for its high Body rating, as well as its Protection score (though the latter doesn't apply to side-based attack).

Communications Array: equipped with a powerful U.H.F. / V.H.F. / C.C.T.V. radio transceiver, the Hammer also has a rather potent whip antenna, allowing it a total communications range of 250 miles (Typical (6) range), and has a quasi-random frequency hopper to allow for Excellent (20) comm encryption.

Guided Missiles: on the back of the Hammer are two separate, multi-directional missile pods with three rounds in each. These rear-mounted launchers can be fired from within the Hammer or from the back if necessary. These heat-seeking projectiles have the following vehicular statistics:

C Ex 20

S Mn 75

B Ex 20

Damage Rm 30 Edged Attack

High Impact Pulse Cannon: the primary armament on the Hammer, this top-mounted cannon rests on a computer controlled rotational turret with a 360 degree range. This cannon can fire a burst of ammunition that is capable of inflicting Remarkable (30) Armor Piercing Shooting damage per deadly blast.

Quartz-Halogen Lamps: these twin lamps, mounted on front of the Hammer, are powerful light casting implements capable of producing Remarkable (30) illumination. This helps to deal with night conditions, and can provide an improvised blinding attack under certain (surprise) conditions.

Storage Compartment: finally, the Hammer has a rather large storage capacity in the back. The Hammer itself has over a 2,000 pound load limit, allowing it to carry the driver, gunner, two passengers in the back seat, and up to six additional hangers-on, meaning that at least 500 lbs of gear can be held here.

More, if less than ten folks are in/on the Hammer.

Twin-Barreled Side Guns: on each side of the Hammer are two swivel-mount, twin barreled guns that can be used as back-up for the vehicle's main gun. These can be fired to inflict Excellent (20) Shooting damage in a short burst, or Remarkable (30) Shooting damage in a continuous stream of lead.
