Industrial-Era Vehicles


Garbage Truck (4/19)

The Pep of a garbage truck goes up to five if it isn't filled to the brim with stinking, putrid waste. But what possible advantage (from the GM's perspective) is there to letting people drive an empty garbage truck? So I'm just assuming any garbage trucks involved in your car chases will be filled to the brim with rank, stewing, juicy filth. Well, at least you can use it for some goey stunts!

Vietnam Era Tank (5/21)

Assuming an old tank has been kept in good order, it can reach about 40 kmh on open road, it can drive over trees and it's completely immune to damage from small arms fire. It has heavy front armor worth +3 Toughness. Of course, everyone who gets behind the controls of a tank wants to shoot the big gun. The big gun does damage 23, either AP or HE (see the Really Big Guns chapter). It requires a separate loader and gunner; you can't drive and shoot. Against pedestrian and nonmilitary vehicles, you're much better off with the standard mounted .50 machinegun. (Restricted)

Personal Prop Planes (16/8)

This covers your basic crop dusters, Piper Cubs and the plane that Indiana Jones used to escape from South America. (Working Stiff)

Motorboat (9/14)

Your average, middle class, burger munching, Budweiser drinking man's water ski boat. Or, in Hong Kong, your average, middle class, squid-and-noodle munching, Tsing-Tao drinking man's water ski boat. (Rich in this era, Working Stiff later on)
