==Overview:==
Looking very much like an oversized SUV or other such vehicle, the Ironhide
was designed in such a fashion as to tackle any terrain that might be thrown
at it, and so can handle a thick jungle or the urban jungle with ease. 

The vehicle's main weapon is an AC/2, allowing it to snipe at targets from
range. This was selected due to the fact that normal munitions are cheap and
common, while the new experimental munitions can do goodly damage to an
unsuspecting target. Twin medium lasers serve as a back-up in case a target
closes or the autocannon runs out of ammo. 

A cargo bay in the back provides room for a week's supplies for the crew of
two, or space for a few commandos or wounded to be transported. Spot lights
mounted on the vehicle also help the crew navigate and fight as needs be.

==Capabilities:==
In-game rules:

Even though it's an L3 vehicle, treat it as L2. This is because of the
advanced fractional accounting rules. 

For the spot lights, treat them as normal; the modifier for fighting in the
dark or in other low-visibility situations does not apply.

The vehicle can handle rough terrain and rubble due to its rugged design, but
pays two movement points per hex that it goes through.

Interesting little truck. I like the custom fluff that allows it to go where normal wheeled vehicles cannot go.
