The Jeep has mobility and moderate firepower all rolled into one. Its only armament is a Browning .50 cal heavy machine gun. It is great for pinning down infantry. As the jeep is one of the fastest units on the field, besides the medic, it is a great crate fetcher.
The two man-crew can be harmed and if one is killed you can call in a crew member to replace either the driver or gunner (gunner taking priority). The Jeep costs 6 TP and comes with a driver and gunner."
Description[]
The jeep is a hulking car equipped with a .50 machine gun that is the same type as the static HMG that you can deploy for 6 TP. The main difference between both guns is that the jeep sacrifices accuracy for mobility.
While the humans can be harmed, the jeep itself can actually take damage also, only from grenades and the like though, because it is a vehicle.
