Resistance Ski Speeder
Craft: Modified Roche Machines V-4 series
Type: Low-altitude assault airspeeder
Scale: Speeder
Length: 7.33 m (strut deployed)
Skill: Repulsorlift operation: ski speeder
Crew: 1 pilot
Passengers: 0
Crew Skill: Repulsorlift operation 4D, vehicle blasters 4D
Cargo Capacity: 40 kg (survival pack & tools)
Cover: 3/4
Altitude Range: Ground level up to 60 meters
Cost: 28,000 cr (military surplus; rare)
Maneuverability: 1D+1 (see notes)
Move: 95; 285 km/h
Body Strength: 2D+2
Weapons
2 Laser Cannons (fire-linked)
-- Fire Arc: Front
-- Skill: vehicle blasters
-- Fire Control: 1D
-- Range: 10–100/250/500 m
-- Damage: 4D
Game Notes
-- Stabilizer Strut: When the outrigger ski is deployed (normal mode), the speeder skims 0–4 meters above ground and gains its full Maneuverability. Retracting the ski allows up to 60 meters altitude but introduces heavy wobble: Maneuverability becomes 0D and all Piloting difficulties increase one level (e.g., Moderate becomes Difficult). Deploy/ retract is a free action but takes effect at end of round.
-- Skimming Kick-Up: Pilots making Difficult (20) Repulsorlift checks may rake debris and dust toward ground targets; on success, enemies without sealed helmets within 5 meter suffer –1D to actions next round (visibility).
-- Structural Limits: The V-4X-D is lightly built; if it takes 12+ points over body strength in a single hit, roll an immediate Difficult (20) Piloting check to keep control or crash.
-- Maintenance Hogs: After 30 minutes of continuous top-speed flight, engines overheat; make a Moderate (15) repulsorlift repair roll each additional turn or Move drops to 60 (180 km/h) until cooled.
-- Altitude beyond 60 meters without the stabilizer imposes Very Difficult control each round; failure equals uncontrolled spiral. |

Don't you mean a ski speeder? That's what it's called on the Wook.
It should be vehicle blasters, not starship gunnery. |

You are correct.

Correct again. Stats adjusted. Also, made the lasers linked.
