NiM-8 Jetcycle


The NiM-8 Military Cycle is standard issue to officers. With the quickness of a jet and the weapons to match. More heavily armored, and equipped with larger engines than the Ni-10 the 'Nim' has proven it self to be a tough and combat worthy vehicle and is sometimes used in special forces for quick strike missions.

The riders legs are enclosed in the vehicles sides and armour is required to pilot the cycle. The pilot must be locked into the cycle, with a suit of MPA that has special 'docking ports' that hold the pilot in place and sonic speeds. *Not this makes the pilot harder to hit.
