Description
The Packrat is a speedy eight-wheeled vehicle that is designed for deep infiltration and sabotage. It is capable of carrying a squad of infantrymen and their gear, and, in a pinch, the interior can be modified into a sleeping area.
Armament
The Packrat is armed with a Harvester SRM-6 and a pair of Flamers for anti-infantry work. Despite this firepower it normally uses its high speed to evade combat, as its role is not to fight head-on.
