Default Re: The Unoffial 2056 Vehicle Guide

It's better than the Joseph Special

Use AM's excellent vehicle builder - like Sword said something seems not right.

In general I'd say you've got the classic 'everything = nothing' problem. You've designed a racer with a lot of guns, so what is this thing supposed to do? It's fast, but it has inaccurate front-mounted weapons that require it to get up close and personal, but doesn't have the armor to survive.

Here's a sporty vehicle from AM's stock vehicle list comparable in price(not mine):

Flamenco 2065 -- Compact, Extra-Heavy chassis, Heavy suspension, Large power plant w/PC, High-Torque Motors, 4 Steelbelted Puncture-Resistant tires, Driver w/SWC and BA and PFE, Machine Gun Front, Flaming Oil Jet Back, Link (FOJ, MG), Plastic Armor: F44, L35, R35, B44, T12, U15, 2 8-pt Wheelguards Back, 2 8-pt Wheelhubs Front, Acceleration 10 (+5 w/HTMs), Top Speed 120, HC 3, 4198 lbs., $11750
