(PL5)As civil unrest in various countries increases, many police forces found they needed heavier armoured vehicles with large passenger capacity. But they also found they needed a vehicle that could blend in with civilian traffic especially for large sting operations or for expected riots, without tipping off the criminals that a large police force was present.New Flyer, makers of public transit buses, was contracted, and paired with several military vehicle companies to create the H.U.P.C, or heavy urban personnel carrier. The H.U.P.C. looks like the newer Xcelsior buses, only it is heavily modified.The frame is greatly reinforced, it's well armoured, most of the windows are removed, but false tinted bullet proof glass windows are installed to give the bus the illusion it is still a civilian passenger bus. The doors are modified and armoured so that when they open, armoured panels extend out to allow greater cover for exiting troops, especially when opened close to a building.These panels extend out 2 feet. The windows that are still remaining have 6 (3 each side) concealed gunports for inside troops to fire through, and are made of bullet proof glass. The bumpers,especially the front one, are heavily reinforced to allow the H.U.P.C to smash through many barricades. The seats are designed with crash webbing, allowing the passengers who are seated, including driver and command unit staff, to suffer no damage when the H.U.P.C. rams something. The crash webbing also as a quick release system to allow troops to quickly disengage the webbing and get to the door in a few seconds.Seating has been reduced from the normal 42 for the 40 foot model to 30 seated troops, with an additional 5 standing comfortably. The rear deck has a mobile command unit, providing communications for the troops. The suite has multiple monitors for receiving gun or helmet camera footage, multiband police and/or military radio, GPS, civilian radio jammer, radio encryption/decryption,wireless internet for connecting to police computer systems, satellite radio,large storage capacity of all audio/video recordings from helmet and gun cameras. The H.U.P.C. also mounts a HI-Def camera on a small turret on the roof to record all that goes on around it with a laser microphone, along with shotgun and parabolic mics. The command unit has room for 3 operators.Mounted on the roof, concealed where the electric motor would normally be, is are tractable manned turret for either a 7.62 mm or .50 cal machinegun that can hold up to 3000 rounds in a belt, with a grenade launcher that usually contains tear gas or smoke grenades with a 12 round capacity. To use the turret, someone inside the H.U.P.C pulls down a short ladder on the ceiling, which lowers a platform for him/her to stand on, which also activates the turret, raising it,allowing for full 360 degree rotation, and 120 degree vertical arc.Inside, at each seat has a rack and storage for one rifle, one pistol, 6 grenades, 4 magazines for each weapon and riot shield. There is a storage locker that holds additional ammunition and grenades, plus 4 racks for heavy machineguns, rocket launders or grenade launchers plus space for 3 reloads each. There is also 10 first aid kits, 5 emergency surgery kits, 3 collapsible stretchers, 2 days worth of rations for a full compliment, emergency flares,road side markers/pylons, several rolls of police caution tape, bolt cutters,portable battering ram, 2 10-man tents and 10 kinetic powered flashlights.As the H.U.P.C is designed to look like a civilian passenger bus, it still has the LED signs on the front, side and small rear ones, which it can use to display false transit bus information, or when at a scene, to caution people away. Two concealed turreted search lights and standard police flashing lights are on the roof, as well as siren and speakers.H.U.P.C.

Gunports allow 3 troops on each side (total of 6) to fire at targets outside with full cover(targets hill strike the H.U.P.C instead), the person manning the gun turret has three-quarters cover. Troops can embark or disembark the H.U.P.C as a move action, with two troops exiting at a time (one per door, two doors total). [TABLE="width: 500"][TR][TD]  Weapon[/TD][TD]  Damage[/TD][TD]  Critical[/TD][TD]  Damage Type[/TD][TD]  Range Incr[/TD][TD]  Rate of Fire[/TD][TD]  Magazine[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  7.62 Machinegun[/TD][TD]  2d10[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  100 ft[/TD][TD]  A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  40mm Grenade  Launcher[/TD][TD]  Varies by grenade[/TD][TD]  -[/TD][TD]  varies[/TD][TD]  110 ft[/TD][TD]  S[/TD][TD]  12 box[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  Optional M2HB  (replace 7.62 machinegun)[/TD][TD]  2d12[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  110 ft[/TD][TD]  A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][/TABLE]H.U.A.V (PL5)The Heavy Urban Assault Vehicle, or H.U.A.V., is a modified version of the H.U.P.C., geared towards heavy assaults, such as captured armoured truck and light military vehicles. The H.U.A.V is further reinforced to support the turret that mounts the same 25mm cannon as the M2A2 Bradley on the roof at the rear and smaller turret that mounts twin .50 cal machine guns, as well as side weapon blisters for 7.62 machineguns. Both roof mounted turrets have a grenade launcher with a 12 round magazine, with multiple magazines available. The 25mm cannon turret has full 360 degree rotation, while the front turret can't fire in the rear 60 degree arc except for up in the sky above the rear turret.Sensors as well as computer programmed locks prevents the turret from firing when aimed in the direction as the other turret.The H.U.A.V does away with troop capacity, but it has room for 5 troops, and command unit to make room for the supports of the turrets and ammunition for all the weapons it carries. Although the H.U.A.V. has many critics against its development, but few have complained about its results. Not many H.U.A.V.s have been produced, although about half produced has been used by the military for use in third world country cities or recently pacified cities for patrol purposes.The H.U.A.V. has thicker armour than the H.U.P.C, but is much slower, due to the added weight of the turrets and weapons, but it is fast enough to keep up with most APCs that it might be used against within a city. The H.U.A.V. does retain the reinforced design and bumpers to allow it to ram other vehicles or barricades while suffering little damage, along with the crash webbing for all crew and passengers. H.U.A.V.(PL5)Crew: 10 (1 driver, 1 commander, 1 main turret gunner, 1 secondary turret gunner, 6 side weapon blister gunners)Passengers: Up to 5 troops, although a little crampedCargo: 50 lbs of gearInit: -3Maneuver:-4Top Speed:70 (7)Defense: 8Hardness:12Hit Points:52Size: GPurchase DC: 43Restriction: Mil(+3)Accessories: multiband police/military radio, GPS, satellite radio, police computer,wireless internet, reinforced design and bumper, 2 day rations for 10 people, 2 five man tents, 2 roof mounted search lights, police lights (military models remove these for an extra search light), turret with 25mm cannon and grenade launcher, turret with twin fire-linked .50 cal machineguns and grenade launcher, 6 side mounted weapon blisters (3 each side), roof mounted smoke grenade launchers (12 tubes, 3 grenades each), 10 flares, 1 collapsible stretcher.Notes: Definitely noticeably not a civilian passenger bus, suffers only one-quarter damage from ramming or collisions. [TABLE="width: 700"][TR][TD]  Weapon[/TD][TD]  Damage[/TD][TD]  Critical[/TD][TD]  Damage Type[/TD][TD]  Range Incr[/TD][TD]  Rate of Fire[/TD][TD]  Magazine[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  25mm Cannon[/TD][TD]  4d12[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  150 ft[/TD][TD]  A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  Twin .50 cal  Machinegun[/TD][TD]  3d12[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  110 ft[/TD][TD]  A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  40mm Grenade  Launcher (2)[/TD][TD]  Varies by grenade[/TD][TD]  -[/TD][TD]  varies[/TD][TD]  110 ft[/TD][TD]  S[/TD][TD]  12 box ea[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  7.62 machine gun  blister (6)[/TD][TD]  2d10[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  90 ft[/TD][TD]  S, A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][/TABLE][HR][/HR]Bradley Mk3 Rapid Attack Tank (PL6)The Bradley Mk3 tank is a relatively swift tracked vehicle with all the target acquisition gear and sensor systems needed to allow its activity in the field as a solitary attack craft with anti-infantry and vehicle capability. Its ability to fulfill this last role is limited due to the light nature of its weaponry, but with skilled crewmen, or by attacking in groups with other Bradleys using combined fire, it can be remarkably effective. As a vehicle hunter/killer, it can be especially lethal as its performance characteristics allow for rapid assaults and enemy engagement at long ranges. In the field,Bradley IIIs tend to lead assaults, firing from terrain cover whenever possible and infiltrating enemy lines to bring back formation data to the rest of its company. Bradleys are able to open fire with their main guns while in motion at their top speed to maximize their chances of survival and perform lightning strikes.Bradley Mk3s have a crew of 4, driver, sensor operator and two gunners. They are armed with a laser and 30mm cannons in the turret side by side, with two 12.7mm (.50 cal) machineguns on remote turrets on the sides of the body for anti-infantry purposes. Bradley Mk3s have a reduced passenger capacity compared to older Bradleys due to space being dedicated to weapons. The Bradley Mk3 can carry 5 troops. There are three top hatches, one over driver and sensor operator, and one in the turret, and a large door in the back for infantry soldiers to load or disembark. Takes a full-round action to enter the vehicle through a top hatch, and another full-round action to start it moving. The Bradley Mk3 is three squares wide and four squares long. It provides full cover to its occupants. The Bradley Mk3 is amphibious, allowing it to travel through water or make amphibious landing and assaults launched from boats.Bradley Mk3 (PL6)Crew:4Passengers: 5Cargo: 200 lbsInit: -3Maneuver:-3Top Speed:90 (9), 30 (3) waterDefense: 6Hardness:16Hit Points:60Size:GargantuanPurchase DC: 46Restriction: Mil(+3)Accessories:Two first aid kits, holster at each station for a PDW or sidearm and two magazines, nightvision 1000 ft, NBC seal, air filters, 8 hour air supply, wench with 100 ft of cable, emergency rations for 2 days for 4 people, 2 searchlights that function both in visible light and infrared, infrared cameras, 30mm cannon and laser cannon in turret, 12.7mm machineguns in side weapons blisters.Notes: Darkvision 1000 ft, air filters and NBC provide +4 bonus to Fort saves to airborne toxins and radiation. If air is too polluted, poisoned or toxic, the computer system and sensors will automatically seal the vehicle and switch to the internal air supply. Able to travel on water, but no deeper than 100 ft.Targeting computer provides +4 to attack and compensates for movement penalties (gunners do not suffer any penalties from the tank moving). [TABLE="width: 500"][TR][TD]  Weapon[/TD][TD]  Damage[/TD][TD]  Critical[/TD][TD]  Damage Type[/TD][TD]  Range Increment[/TD][TD]  Rate of Fire[/TD][TD]  Magazine[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  30mm Cannon[/TD][TD]  4d12[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  150 ft[/TD][TD]  A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  Laser Cannon[/TD][TD]  5d8[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Fire[/TD][TD]  200 ft[/TD][TD]  S[/TD][TD]  50 shot battery[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  12.7mm machinegune  (2)[/TD][TD]  2d12[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  Ballistic[/TD][TD]  110 ft[/TD][TD]  S, A[/TD][TD]  Linked[/TD][/TR][/TABLE][HR][/HR]BladewolfA light fast strike anti-grav attack vehicle, the Bladewolf makes for excellent flanker and first strike against infantry and light armoured vehicles. The angled hull allows for deflection of debris and light arms, and the narrow profile allows it to make tight maneuvers, excellent for urban or dense forest terrain. It requires a crew of only 2, and being not much bigger than some civilian vehicles, allows the Bladewolf to go virtually anywhere, and be carried in a wide variety of transports. The anti-grav systems allows the Bladewolf to hover up to a maximum of 10 feet above the round in an Earth standard gravity. It will float up to 3 feet in up to 3.5G planets. With a speed of 250 mph, and armed with a 20mm rail autocannon and dual mini-missile launchers gives the Bladewolf its excellent fast strike capabilities. The Bladewolf is only 15 feet long (3 squares) and 9.5 feet (2 squares) at it's widest point, with a total height of 8.3 feet, weighing 15 tons. The Bladewolf has an access hatch on each side to allow the crew to enter or leave, taking a full round either way.Bladewolf LAFV (PL6/7)Crew:2Passengers: 0Cargo: 50 lbsInit: -1Maneuver:+1Top Speed:370 (37)Defense: 8Hardness: 8Hit Points:40Size: HugePurchase DC: 45Restriction: Mil (+3)Accessories:Military Radio, targeting computer, 20mm rail autocannon, 2 mini-missile launchers, 2 survival packs, thermo vision, IR sensors, environmental/NBC seal with 12 hours of air, 2 first aid kits, 2 days rations 12 smoke grenadesNotes:Targeting computer grants +1 to attack, night vision 300 ft, +4 bonus to airborne toxins and radiation, can be sealed completely with 12 hours of air. [TABLE="width: 700"][TR][TD]  Weapon[/TD][TD]  Damage[/TD][TD]  Crit[/TD][TD]  Damage Type[/TD][TD]  Range Incr[/TD][TD]  Rate of Fire[/TD][TD]  Magazine[/TD][TD]  Size[/TD][TD]  Weight[/TD][TD]  PDC[/TD][TD]  Res[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  20mm Rail  Autocannon[/TD][TD]  4d12[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  ball[/TD][TD]  200 ft[/TD][TD]  A[/TD][TD]  Linked 2000 rds[/TD][TD]  Huge[/TD][TD]  *[/TD][TD]  *[/TD][TD]  *[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]  2 Mini-Missile  Launcher[/TD][TD]  varies[/TD][TD]  20[/TD][TD]  varies[/TD][TD]  275 ft[/TD][TD]  s[/TD][TD]  12 missiles ea[/TD][TD]  large[/TD][TD]  *[/TD][TD]  *[/TD][TD]  *[/TD][/TR][/TABLE]</blockquote>
