The Helicopter cannot be equipped with upward-firing weapons.

Options

You may apply any number of the following options.

Tires (Two on Left Side, two on Right): HP 1, Toughness 4. Tires grant an additional Movement Mode before SlowGround: Minimum Speed 0 meters, Maximum Speed 150 meters, 8 meter Turning Radius, usable only while on the ground. Destroying a tire forces the helicopter to turn as hard as possible in the direction of the destroyed tire. With multiple destroyed tires, the helicopter moves for one more round in a random possible direction before coming to a halt. Tires (and the engine mechanisms which support them) weigh a total of 200 Kilograms.

Extra Cargo: The helicopter's size increases by 4 meters, its turning radii double, and its carrying capacity is multiplied by 4.

Vectored Jets: Instead of a Rotor, the helicopter has two vectored jets, one targetable on every side except Left, and one targetable on every side except Right. Destroying either one causes the helicopter to fall from the sky, with extra spin and force causing the effective fall distance to double. The helicopter's maximum and minimum speeds and climb double for all movement modes. The helicopter can now be equipped with upward-firing weapons.

Components

Rotor (Targetable on every side other than Bottom): HP 1, Toughness 5. Destroying the Rotor forces the helicopter to fall from the sky.
