Often a part of small reconnaissance teams, the Stormer is a wheeled vehicle used for scouting out potential targets and testing enemy defenses. It is much lighter than most other ta’keshi vehicles, being faster and less well armed and armored.
The Stormer is armed with a sinle 20mm heavy machine gun for self-defense, and can engage infantry and light vehicles with little issue. However, it is vulnerable to heavy weapons fire, and has little to offer against heavy combat vehicles. It can carry two additional warriors as passengers, being able to deploy them to fight on foot if need be.
The Stormer has a top speed of 75 miles per hour, and is reasonably maneuverable thanks to its independent steering system for both pairs of wheels. In addition, it has excellent suspension, allowing it to easily traverse difficult terrain, though it of course must do so well below its maximum speed.
These vehicles are used as scouts and light support units by most Tribes, and fills the role of basic patrol vehicle in ta’keshi territory. They are versatile machines that are responsible for determining how powerful a planet’s defenses are, a critical part of any ta’keshi invasion.
