=== Experimental Vehicle===
When you reach 3rd level, your combat training and your experiments with magic have paid off in two ways:
+
By 3rd level, you have completed an experimental vehicle.
 +
This vehicle counts as a creature, but it can take no actions unless you are driving it.
 +
If you are not driving the vehicle, it stunned.
 +
You can spend actions to use the vehicle's abilities, including any attacks the vehicle is capable of.
 +
Any artificer spells with a range of self affecting you also affect the vehicle as long as you are riding it.
  
* You gain proficiency with martial weapons.
+
If the Mending spell is cast on it, the vehicle regains 2d6 hit points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use your carpenter's tools as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The experimental vehicle is restored after 1 minute with all its hit points recovered.
* When you attack with a magic weapon, you can use your Intelligence modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity modifier, for the attack and damage rolls.
 
  
=== Steel Defender ===

When you gain this ability, you must decide to create a land vehicle, water vehicle, or air vehicle. An
By 3rd level, your tinkering has borne you a faithful companion, a steel defender. It's friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the Steel Defender stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. You determine the creature's appearance and whether it has two legs or four; your choice has no effect on its game statistics, <span style="background-color:yellow">but does allow it to either serve as a mount or manipulate objects.</span>
 
  
In combat, the defender shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the defender can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

Your proficiency bonus (PB) and artificer level appears in several places in the stat block.
  
If the Mending spell is cast on it, it regains 2d6 hit points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use your smith's tools as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The steel defender returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored.

Notepad.png This is a work in progress.

This is an Artificer Specialization for 5A.

Conveyors build large machines that can convey themselves and a few others. This conveyance can be used for travel, exploration, or war. Always exotic, such vehicles are unique sights that always draw attention wherever they appear.

Greyhawk: Vehicles in use in the Flanaess is almost universally powered by draft animals or the wind, but certain artificers can build vehicles centuries ahead of their time. Built by individual geniuses, such vehicles can appear anywhere, but the central region around Greyhawk and the Ulek states is the likeliest place to find them.

Source: Original.

Subclass Features

Proficiencies

When you adopt this specialization at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with carpenter's tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan's tools of your choice. You also gain proficiency with one type of vehicles: land vehicles, water vehicles, or air vehicles.

Conveyor Spells

Starting at 3rd level, you always have certain spells prepared after you reach particular levels in this class, as shown in the Conveyor Spells table. These spells count as artificer spells for you, but they don’t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.

Conveyor Spells
Artificer Level Conveyor Spells
3 Expeditious Retreat, Tenser's Floating Disc
5 Dragon's Breath, Pass Without Trace
9 Daylight, Meld Into Stone
13 Control Water, Freedom of Movement
17 Control Winds, Telekinesis

Experimental Vehicle

By 3rd level, you have completed an experimental vehicle. This vehicle counts as a creature, but it can take no actions unless you are driving it. If you are not driving the vehicle, it stunned. You can spend actions to use the vehicle's abilities, including any attacks the vehicle is capable of. Any artificer spells with a range of self affecting you also affect the vehicle as long as you are riding it.

If the Mending spell is cast on it, the vehicle regains 2d6 hit points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use your carpenter's tools as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The experimental vehicle is restored after 1 minute with all its hit points recovered.

When you gain this ability, you must decide to create a land vehicle, water vehicle, or air vehicle. An
