Notorious for its association with the Faceless Trade, the Wildcat is designed to outrun pursuers rather than fight them head on. It features four wheel-housings that each turn independently of one another, allowing for greater manoeuvrability for any driver skilled enough to handle the tighter corners. Each Wildcat has a turret ring capable of mounting several types of weapons, and many outlaws modify their Wildcats to carry extra cargo containers for smuggling and contraband.

TraitsHighly Manoeuverable: This vehicle is particularly nimble, granting +2SL to all Piloting Tests. Open: This vehicle’s crew and passenger compartments are open, exposing those aboard.
Speed Booster: In addition to its already formidable speed, all Wildcats come equipped with a capacitor coil capable of overcharging the vehicle’s engine for a short period of time. As an Action, the driver may activate the booster. For the next minute, the Wildcat gains the Swift speed, and adds +1SL to Piloting tests made as part of a Pursuit encounter, but loses the Highly Manoeuverable Trait. After use, the capacitor takes 1 hour to recharge, during which time it cannot be used again. | ||||||||||||
