Science-Fiction Vehicles
Ground vehicles are all electric, and most run off batteries. This is good for the environment, but very tough on performance. Electrovan (4/12)A van fitted to run on electricity, and are used for local deliveries, it's slug-slow and automated: no steering wheel or gas pedal or anything. A techie could graft on some controls without even a roll, but it would take a couple hours. If he's in a hurry, the program running the truck can be interrupted in one sequence with a Fix-It roll against Difficulty 10. While running on program, the electrovan has a Drive skill of 8. (Working Stiff) Electrocycle (5/7)This is a bike with an added electric motor. (Poor) Public Order Rapid Response Police Transport (7/17)Sleek, black and fairly fast, the RRPT (pronounced "ripped") is the next generation of cop car. They're built to the aerodynamic ideal you see in so many of the rounded cars of the 1990s. They're pretty much like cop cars from the 1990s: technology improved, but there's only so much you can do with an electric car. (Restricted) Public Order Group Impropriety Restraint Wagon (6/20)The POGIR are slow, clunky mop-up vehicles used for mass arrests. They look like big, grey plastic minivans, usually with a seal on the side and sirens on the top. Up to twelve cowed and restrained dissidents can be flung in the back. Similar cars in cargo configuration are used for Buro deliveries and other supply work. (Restricted) Jammer Junkyard Racer (X/X)Built by madmen and driven by crazies, these contraptions use parts from old junked cars. Most use alcoholic fuel, which makes them a lot hotter than Buro cars. Each is as individual and cranky as they get. They all look as if they escaped from one of the later Mad Max films. Some are even motorbikes, watercycles, choppers or planes, but use the same stats. When building one of these, the techie can assign points as he likes between Toughness and Pep, as long as the sum is no greater than his Fix-It skill. Most have insanely high Pep scores, and fireball if you even touch them the wrong way. (Poor)
