Maraudeur II

The first Marauder, a 10-tonne 4 × 4 created by the South African Paramount Group, proved to be a highly effective vehicle in the continent’s clashes with Eurocorps. The UAN decided to invest in the group’s flagship product to keep it up to date in these trying times.

Prototypes were in the testing phase when the Anathema came, and the UAN changed its requirements accordingly. The Marauder II became the first vehicle created with the Anathema in mind, and is equipped with ultraviolet headlights, sliding windows, pneumatic doors, etc.

Its crew consists of one pilot and a copilot or gunner at the front, and it can transport eight soldiers and their equipment in the back. Its huge, tear-resistant cellstructure tires and massive, nigh-indestructible chassis allow it to travel over bumpy terrain, creatures, and abandoned cars alike with the same ease as a tracked vehicle. Its roof-mounted automated turret can be fitted with a variety of heavy weapons. In addition to armed troop carriers, the Marauder II can also serve as ambulances and mobile command vehicles.

An important detail to note is that while the Marauder is one of the most common combat vehicles in the free territories, its use in some arks is widespread too.
