Default Re: Cycle Pack Attack

Sounds like a well protected convoy. How about just 1 cycle up front - keep speed over 60 and distance over 10". The point is to slow the convoy down. A bike with a HDFOJ should do the trick (and CA). Just make 1-2 passes over the road in a serpentine pattern.

Heavy Cycle, Heavy suspension, Medium Cycle power plant w/SC,
10-pt CA (Power Plant), 2 Motorcycle Puncture-Resistant tires, Cycle
Windshell w/10 pts extra Plastic armor, Cyclist w/BA and 10-pt CA,
Heavy Flaming Oil Jet Back, Plastic Armor: F15, B28, 2 10-pt Cycle
Wheelguards, Acceleration 10, Top Speed 132.5, HC 2 (3 @60mph),
1298 lbs., $6766

The rest of the attack can come from the rear - avoid the lasers by staying in the rear arc of the rig, avoid drops by briefly going off road if necessary (I do not believe cycles take U armor damage from going off-road). If the convoy slows down or the tractor turns to use the lasers fire at the rear or side armor of the tractor. If someone in the gang knows what they're doing go for the 5th wheel. If the gang wants to force the rig to turn and fight shoot at the ISO containers.

No-one is going to drive until they are within 6" of you and if you start more than 6" away slowing to get them 6" away is going to look awfully suspicious. Plus you will be 6" away from the front man with the Blast Cannon which probably won't end well for you.
