The Tumor Boomer (Icey's name, not mine) is good in TDM and certain DM situations where there are a larger number of lights or tanks. Be aware that while this vehicle can go head-to-head with an Exec and walk away, the second Exec (or other heavy) is almost guaranteed to kill it. Use this vehicle as a support Herc.

Tanks and lights only require a couple hits from either weapon, but the limited maneuverability makes it a challenge.

Swapouts: To gain weight: switch engine to equivilant human engine, switch computer to Cybrid Enhanced. This will provide enough weight for uranium armor if needed.

A variant on this vehicle uses blasters or heavy blasters in place of ELFs. Also, one may switch the Shrikes to Minions or Sparrows to fit PBWs, rails, or similar.
