"Civilian" Class Vehicles
By Ambience
Additions and Editing by Linwood Foster
Rifts characters usually pilot heavily armed and armored vehicles, but what
are they supposed to do in the city? Nope, can't take that Naruni Juggernaut
Hover-Tank down main street. Most of the more intelligent cities won't allow
vehicles that are either too big, noisy, or heavily armed entrance to the
city. This also goes for power armor, and robot vehicles. So, here is a
listing of common vehicles and their quick stats, this is what I use for
normal city vehicles, and even some country ones. There are also some
hover sports cars with art by Mr. Richards himself.
Note: Most of the vehicle types came out of the back of Heroes Unlimited,
with equivalent light MDC materials taken into place for their damage capacity.
These vehicles are designed to withstand light MD, instead of being
modified into MDC vehicles.
Ground Vehicles
All of these vehicles are commonly available in all civilized places of Rifts earth.
They are manufactured by the Coalition, Triax, Northern Gun, Golden Age Weapon
Smiths, Wellington Industries, Iron Heart Armaments, as well as various independent
city-states/kingdoms. The differences between manufactures are much the
same as today, different vehicles have different quirks and qualities according
to their maker. For example, the Coalition and Triax vehicles are usually
of the highest quality, cost a little more, and will hardly *ever* break down
under normal conditions. Chipwell vehicles however are more equivalent to the
Toyotas and Mazdas of today. They are of a lesser quality, and generally are not
as nice as their expensive counterparts (this is not to say they are more prone
to breaking down, I know of a Mazda with over 200,000 miles on it!). The vehicles
styles also vary according to their maker; The Coalition vehicles' have that
"slick" look to them, Northern Gun's are boxy, Triax's are European-looking, you
get the idea.

Y2K+ JetBike
15 MDC, 420 mph max, 500 mile range, seats 1, price: 200,000 credits.
This is a super fast motorcycle made for road racing. It is powered by a surplus jet helicopter turbine engine. While it handles like any other motorcycle at low speeds (under 120 mph), it becomes increasing difficult (-15% skill check) to pilot at higher speeds. The Y2K+ is made for road driving, and suffers an additional -15% skill penalty when trying to drive it off-road. Also available fusion powered for 500,000 credits.
SuperSport Motorcycle
20 MDC, Tires 2 MDC each (2), 225 mph, 300 mile range, price: 11,000cr.
This is a super fast, super manueverable motorcycle made for road racing. The advanced handling and unique balance of this bike makes it very difficult for the novice driver (-15% skill check) to control this bike. However, it does offer a +5 to dodge rolls. The SuperSport is made for road driving, and suffers an additional -15% skill penalty when trying to drive it off-road.
The above vehicles all either run on gasoline or electric, as it's not
worth while to have a fusion power source. Also, these are city vehicles, they
aren't made for off-road uses, are not environmental, and don't have any sensors
or short range transmitting radios. Made to withstand the normal rigors of city
life, these vehicles are not built to take a drawn out fire-fight or to leap
across 40ft gorges. They are just the normal man's transportation, you know, the
kind you'd see a common citizen driving down the street. While they are able to
withstand some of the rigors of the wilderness, they generally aren't used out
of the city. However, some of the vehicles may be modified for off road use,
they are certainly cheaper than hovercraft!
Civilian Hover Vehicles
Hover vehicles usually cost around 4 to 5 times the amount of a normal
vehicle their size. Vastly more maneuverable and able to cross nearly any type
of terrain, they make the perfect vehicles in the roadless wilderness, but in
the city they are basically faster equivalents to their ground-based cousins.
The following vehicles are not classed under "military" because that was not
their original purpose, however some may be given weapons systems and be used as
such, it's just it is not usually recommended with most models (except maybe NG)
because they are usually more lightly armed and armored than their military
equivalents.
Note:
Large vehicles are easier to mount hover thrusters on, and are
in comparison cheaper than the exteremly expensive (and maneuverable) hoverbikes.
Just a thought, because a top of the line hoverbike can run around 200,000cr,
while putting similar heavy thrusters on a larger frame is less-expensive. At
least that's how I see it (hover vehicles cost A LOT anyway).
Dodge Rocket
The Dodge Rocket was originally a production sports hover car by the Golden
Age auto manufacturer, Dodge. Plans for the car's mass-production were mostly
completed before the coming of the Rifts, and amazingly survived to be
discovered and copied by a number of manufacturers around North America. Capable
of accelerating to speeds around 150mph in under 6 seconds, the hover car boasts
twin Shinobi 250 Turbine Jet Thrusters, and is one of the fastest ground-based
hover craft known on earth.
Popular with those interested in style and speed more than armor and power,
the Dodge Rocket has gained popularity in the urban centers of North America,
including the Coalition states. It is one of the few vehicles used by wealthy
Coalition citizens that isn't made by the coalition itself. A Coalition-allied
corporation that acquired the plans from a black market bust has been given
exclusive manufacturing rights. The Dodge Rocket is also manufactured by a few
Black Market sectors, and Northern Gun is working on creating a similar vehicle
to add to it's current utility hover vehicle line.
Vehicle Type: Jet Assisted Hovercraft
Crew: 1 pilot and 1 passenger.
MDC by location:
Main Body - 75
*Main Rear Thrusters (2) - 50 each
**Directional Jets (4) - 25 each
Optional Protective Roof Covering - 20 MDC (costs 10,000cr)
Weapons Systems: Basic Model comes with none, as many as 2 vehicle weapons can be mounted into the body (up to rifle size, can also use hover bike weapons).
Maximum Speed: 420 mph.
Maximum Altitude: 15ft, can handle drops of up to 120ft.
Maximum Range: 300 miles.
Engine: Most use the original plans of the Shinbone 250's, which are
usually modified to run on normal gasoline. Some are retrofitted with
electrical engines though.
Length: 14ft.
Weight: 1600lbs.
Cargo: Small trunk, around the size of 3 backpacks.
Special Bonuses:
The Dodge Rocket has excellent handling, even at high speeds. Thus, it gives
the pilot +10% to pilot, +1 on initiative, and +2 to dodge at under 140mph, +4 to
dodge at over 140mph.
Market Cost: 1.5 million credits.
Note: The original company that designed the vehicle was
Dodge, but since most Rifts' people know nothing of history, the car's
name is thought to be the "Dodge Rocket" as Dodge isn't considered the
manufacturer's separate name, but actually part of the name of the
vehicle. Some of the original replicators of it know that the "Dodge"
part is really the ancient company's name, but most people just think
it's part of the name of the car.
The Dodge Rocket SK9
While the original design of the Dodge Rocket was loved by many, there was also an outcry by some for an enhanced model with long range capabilities and greater maneuverability The SK9 was first built by the black market as a custom job for a bounty hunter who loved the design but needed long-range capabilities.
After receiving his new vehicle, the bounty hunter used it quite a bit, and became famous for his unbeatable sports car. Thus, many customers began to ask for similar upgrades, and after a few months of this the Black market just decided to release a whole new model, the SK9.
The SK9 is outfitted with a few upgrades over the previous model. For
one, the ancient design for the engines was replaced entirely with a single powerful turbine. Originally designed for a pre-rifts mini-orbital transport, the turbine was scaled down a bit, but still gives the little car amazing speed. To accommodate the engine's power requirements, and to solve the range problem, a standard nuclear power system was also installed.
A few minor adjustments were also made. The standard vehicle armor
was replaced with the same alloys used in MD fighters. This gave the little car enough armor to survive a little easier in the places it's nuke plant could take it. The other adjustment was an upgrade of the control system to a standard fighter jet setup. This allowed for maneuverability on the same level as a similar fighter jet, and greatly enhanced the SK9's combat abilities.

BMW/Rolls Royce AV-7
The BMW AV-7 is a highly advanced personal hovercraft powered by a single Rolls-Royce 2280
ducted turbojet. The BMW AV-7 utilizes the state of the art in computerized fly-by-wire flight
control and automated navigation systems (includes both an autopilot and dedicated
navigation system). Additionally, the BMW AV-7 is a hybrid -- not only can it
fly (cruising at a respectable 250mph), it also has a concealed set of roadwheels, allowing the AV-7 to utilize the road for when the engines need to cool down.
Unfortunately, the two control fins at the rear are relatively fragile -- a rear-end
collision would severely damage their control surfaces. The AV-7 also includes
passenger seating for 3 plus the pilot, as well as crash webbing for safety. Additionally, the BMW AV-7 has the best sensory and communications gear available in the civilian sector.
Model Type: BMW/Rolls Royce AV-7
Vehicle Type: Turbojet Hovercraft
Crew: 1 pilot and 3 passengers.
M.D.C. by location
Main Body: 250
Crew Compartment: 100
Main Jet Turbine: 100
* Tail Fins (2): 20
Drive Wheels (4): 5
* Destroying one tail fin destabilizes the vehicle, causing a -15% penalty to the
skill check. Destroying both tail fins will completely destabilize the craft, causing
it to crash unless the pilot is able to land the craft (at -30%).
Maximum Speed:
Flying: Cruises at 150 mph, max speed is 480 mph.
Ground: 105 mph.
Maximum Altitude: 300ft, can handle drops of up to 120ft.
Max Range: Unlimited (20 year fusion plant), jets must cool after 2 hours at maximum.
Engine: The BMW AV-7 is powered by a single Rolls-Royce 2280 ducted turbojet,
using a fusion reactor as the power source.
Length: Body: 14ft, with tailfins: 20ft.
Weight: 1700lbs.
Cargo: Medium-sized trunk, around the size of 3 suitcases.
Market Price: 13.5 Million Credits
Special Bonuses: The AV-7 has excellent handling, even at high
speeds. Thus, it gives the pilot +20% to pilot, +1 on initiative, and +3
to dodge at under 200mph, +6 to dodge at over 200mph.
Notes: Eventhough the BMW AV-7 is a civilian vehicle, it is made in the New German
Republic, an area constantly under threat of attack. As such, it does have defensive weapons
built in. Mounted just above the front headlights is a recessed TX-24 Ion Pulse system
(4D6 MD Short bursts, 500ft, unlimited payload). Mounted in the rear of the vehicle is a dual
vertical launch missile system containing 12 small missiles. The vehicle has all the
features of robot armor.

The NG-Siren was designed as a sporty hovercar. Boasting a set
of powerful duct fan engines, it's advanced control setup gives the
pilot an advantage in maneuverability and reaction time. The vehicle
also has rudimentary cyber-jacking capabilities (gives pilot an
additional +5% to pilot hovercraft).
While designed for civilian use, the Sky Siren comes standard
with two pop-up forward weapon mounts, it accepts normal energy
rifles into a set of custom-control targeting systems. (Equivalent
of making the rifles vehicle mounted and giving them +1 to strike).
Included with the package is a HUD system display, 10 mile radar, and laser-targeting.
Northern Gun Hover A.T.V.
Model Type: NG-UHV400
Vehicle Type: A.T.V. Hover Vehicle
A small well built hover truck of sorts, ideal for the inhabitants
of the wilderness, who need a little utility and raw power. Built in the
traditional rugged-boxy looking NG style, this vehicle is common in the
more well-off wilderness communities of Rifts earth. Used as a "work horse",
the A.T.V. is capable of pulling great weights, and is also popular as a
transport vehicle (it can be given a trailer for extra cargo space).
Crew: 1 Driver, 2 passengers (in front), back can hold 6 more easily.
M.D.C. by location:
Main Body: 90
Hover Thrusters (4) - 30 each
Weight: Just under 2 tons.
Length: 23ft.
Width: 7ft.
Cargo: A 6x8x4ft, maximum of 2 tons, has a covered bed.
Max Speed: 120mph, hovers 3 to 20ft off of the ground. Unladen it can
withstand drops of up to 120ft, fully laden it can only take around 15ft drops.
Max Range: 800 miles on electric or gasoline, only 500 if using sub-standard fuel.
Power System: Electric (most common), or Internal Combustion.
Market Cost: 200,000cr -- It's is not much more than a hover bike, but not nearly as maneuverable. It is mostly just a set of big hover engines on a sturdy chassis.
Notes: Due to it's sluggish nature, it has a -15% to pilot. The controls are also more archaic and less natural feeling, the pilot loses 1 attack while struggling to keep control, and any dodges are at -3.

Speed Notes
1. Maximum: This is the vehicle's absolute maximum speed.
2. Cruise: Safe speed for extended travel (given good roads). The
vehicle should be able to drive indefinately at Cruising Speed.
3. Cost: This is the cost for a combustable-fuel engine/propulsion system, fuel tank, and alignment for the vehicle. Nuclear or electric/solar power systems cost extra credits for the connection (Turbo: 175,000 credits, Jet Turbine: 250,000 credits, Hover: 100,000 credits, Micro-Hover: 100,000 credits), plus the actual cost for the power system (1 to 15 million credits for nuclear, or 2 million credits for solar).
