Name: Chaos Mobile Attack Turret (CMAT, pronounced see-mat)
Look: Long, wide and low
Speed: About the same as hellbender
Health: Bit more than Hellbender
Seats: 3
Driver weapons: Primary: horn, Alternative: Deploy (Big accurate minigun firing explosive/flaming/ice/whatever bullets at very high rate)
Turret1 weapons: Primary: Plasma gun (anti infantry), Alternate: Plasma strip (like scorpian, anti vehicle)
Turret2 weapons: Same as 1
Note: Both turrets are moved to back when the main gun is deployed, limiting their efectiveness. (if main gun is too powerfull the players in the turret could be kicked out)
Movement: Land
Replaces:Hellbender
that is WAY too over powered!

I never said how much damage the weapons do. It could replace the goliath instead if that makes it fairer. in fact there are tons of things that could be changed to make the vehicle less powerfull (Rate of fire, accuracy ect)

Here is my idea.

Take a raptor and make it slightly longer and wider. There are two seats.
The first, and main one is the driver seat. This one controls the movement of the machine and also can fire machine gun bullets. The second seat is deployed on the side. This person has a turret that fires large circular blasts that detonate when they come in contact with the ground. The result is a small circle of explosion.
There is also an optional 3-5 seats which are paratrooper seats. As in these people can evacuate the machine at any time necessary and float to the ground.

The Chaos Berserker
The Chaos Berserker is a Raptor replacement that uses the same control scheme with a somewhat higher top speed. the Vehicle seats one person and has a limited top height . Primary fire is a rapid Shotgun like blast of 6 arrows in a tight spread pattern that can just as fast as a Raptors laers. Secondary fire launches a wide spread of 5 Disruptor grenades on 2 second fuses that fly out in a predictable spread pattern. However reckless flying means that you could hit yourself with your own disruptor grenades.

Ok some one get a trout and slap him!!!! Does he realize how much more work this is going to be for us?

However does he realize that is a pretty good idea! Right now the current plan on vehicles is to get the hoverboard fixed and working. We wanted to use the HoverBoard to learn about vehicles. Once we have that working, it should be easier to add other vehicles...

I was thinking of a ye-olde style catapult. To keep with the chaos theme.
And it will also be an unusual weapon type as it has a trajectory and can shoot over walls etc.
Maybe option of having second passenger sit in the sling shot

Could be a form of fast transport across the map for your teammates too "Weeeeeeeeeee"
But prob confuse the hell outa bots.

Plus it would be a challenge to code it
