the Badger
The Badger is the latest in GI Joe off-road assault systems. It is essentially a heavily modified lead assault Jeep that possesses amazing speed, exceptional maneuverability, and intense firepower. The neon green GI Joe Badger has these vehicular characteristics:
Body Armor (s): in addition to being fast, the Badger is built tough. The thing is heavily armored, having an effective m.s. of 11, and it provides its occupant like, or +2, protection from injury - though this does not extend to any hangers-on.
Brush Cage (s): in addition to its roll cage, the Badger is equipped with a brush cage as well. This acts to keep light branches and brush away from the driver, as there is no wind shield or other protection on the vehicle to keep such flora from smacking him or her around.
Communications Array (i): the Badger is equipped with a gigahertz frequency, frequency wobbler clandestine operations radio system. This makes for intensity 5 transception capability (with a 25 mile range) that has intensity 10 signal encryption.
Missile Launcher (i): mounted atop the Badger's roll cage is a large missile launcher. It can fire a single projectile at a time, at which point the occupants of the Badger can reload with up to three additional missiles, also stored up on the roll cage. They inflict intensity 11 damage each.
Passenger Sidebars: the Badger only has room inside for one occupant - its driver. However, up to four others can hang onto the Badger in a pinch - one on each side of the vehicle, in front of the side roll bars, and two on the rear, over the bumper.
Propulsion (a): the GI Joe team's Badger is pretty darn fast. It can move at speeds of up to 105 miles per hour (intensity 4 propulsion) on even surfaces, and around 75 miles per hour (intensity 3 propulsion) on rougher, less ideal terrain.
Roll Cage (s): aiding in the protection of its occupant, as the Badger is off-road most of the time, this metal tubing lowers the damage caused by crashes and rolls. In the event of such an event, the Badger's driver should receive +1 protection against crashing damage.
Scope Light System (i): mounted in the middle of the Badger's brush cage, these three lamps are a 500 watt, high intensity light system. They can fill the area with intensity 8 illumination, and can be used in a pinch (under surprise conditions) as a blinding attack.
