THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE OF THE HAMMER’S SLAMMERSTHE CRUCIBLE RULES SYSTEM HANDBOOK
Vehicles and EquipmentThe division uses exclusively wheeled light and heavier vehicles - manufactured by MOWAG-Whittle for the heavier vehicles and Walshbenz for the ligter buggies and Trike ATVs. These typically feature a variety of projectile weapons: flechette and slug throwing gannon and railguns, supplemented by ATGWs and light mortars. All of the heavier vehicles have strengthened undersides for extra protection against minesVehiclesGun System VehicleMOWAG-Whittle MW815-52A Gun System Vehicle is based on the 815-5 series 8 wheeled hull. It uses a gas turbine engine to drive all eight wheels and is armed with a heavy 9cm railgun in a turret, one of the most powerful available at the time. Speed is good, although armour is thin, especially at the sides and rear. Secondary weapon is a Heavy Support weapon. Their is a missile armed variant of this vehicle - the MW815-54A - armed with the K1 Medium ATGW. All have a crew of three. APCUsing the same armoured and mine resistant 815-5 series 8 wheeled hull as the Gun system, the MW815-50A APC is armed with a 2cm auto-cannon and carries eight infantry and two crew. Variants on that include the MW815-51A MICV with the weapon replaced by a 2cm Gatling Railgun turret but with a third crew member and only space for a group of four infantry.The MW815-53A command vehicle has higher body work but carries no infantry and the MW815-51LM mortar uses the same hull as the command vehicle but mounts a light, fast firing mortar beneath a folding roof hatch. Buggies and Trike ATVsIf not mounted on Walshbenz 3R Trike ATVs, Mobile Infantry use the Walshbenz Geräteträger 6x6 buggy or it’s articulated version with a powered trailer (the Geräteträger-12). These may be armed with Heavy Support Weapons or - for the Geräteträger-12 -additional Auto-Grenade launchers or light ATGW missile systems may be fitted. If neither are added, four infantry may ride in the rear section firing their infantry weapons in support.
