The Storm in ground combat

The Storm brings the one bespoke Size 3 repeater on a fast tracked chassis to nearby ground units, protecting a site, supporting nearby vehicles, or engaging the threats it was built to face. It employs a proprietary track system in combination with a robust power plant, enabling it to approach its targets with a speed that astonishes the adversary.

The Storm's handling

It employs a proprietary track system in combination with a robust power plant, enabling it to approach its targets with a speed that astonishes the adversary.

Storm's secondary weapons

The Storm has a bespoke turret-mounted Size 3 'Reign-3' Repeater, designed by Hurston Dynamics, which can effectively destroy targets significantly larger than itself.

Simple single-seat controls

One operator drives the Storm, controls its turret, and reads the battlefield from a cockpit built around direct single-seat command.

Storm's driver and gunner awareness

Driver and gunner share target calls, terrain information, and the position of nearby friendly units.

Weapon coverage on the Storm

Terrain and hull position determine which threats the gun battery can reach without exposing the whole Storm.

The Storm light tank's main weapon

The single-seat Storm carries Hurston Dynamics' turret-mounted Reign-3 Size 3 repeater. Speed, responsive controls, armor, and shielding let the pilot scout with nearby ground units and apply meaningful fire without operating a full-size battle tank.

ChassisTracked light tank
Mobility Use the Storm's speed before the repeater

The compact tracked chassis can scout, relocate, and support larger vehicles without committing to the slower rhythm of a heavy tank.

Firepower Bring the Reign-3 onto priority ground targets

The bespoke Size 3 repeater gives one operator enough firepower to threaten vehicles larger than the Storm itself.

Survival Move before concentrated return fire arrives

Armor and shields provide balanced protection, but the Storm's strongest defense remains its ability to change position quickly.

Protect nearby troops and vehicles

A combat deployment in the Storm begins with a useful firing position and keeps another covered route open when enemy fire reaches the first one.

  1. Unload the Storm with its weapons ready

    The driver and gunner prepare the Storm to move and fight as soon as it reaches the ground.

  2. Leave the Storm room to relocate

    Good cover lets the Storm support nearby troops without presenting the whole vehicle to return fire.

  3. Use the Storm's weapons

    The Storm's operator aims the one bespoke Size 3 repeater on a fast tracked chassis at the threat that poses the greatest danger to nearby troops or vehicles.

  4. Plan transport, ammunition, and repairs for the Storm

    Vehicle condition and the terrain ahead decide when the Storm should leave for support.

Storm's armored package in detail

The Storm brings its one bespoke Size 3 repeater on a fast tracked chassis to nearby troops and vehicles, with armor and mobility to fire from cover and relocate when needed.

Easily accessible components provide confidence in the event that repairs are needed due to damage.

03 Store equipment aboard the Storm

Cargo or equipment remains organized aboard the Storm through storage.

04 Targeting and visibility on the Storm

Aboard the Storm, clear sightlines and target calls help the crew bring the gun battery onto the greatest threat to nearby units.

One operator drives and fights the Storm

Driving, terrain awareness, target selection, the one bespoke Size 3 repeater on a fast tracked chassis, protection, and the route back to the carrier all remain with one person.

One operator controls the Storm's movement and weapons

The operator keeps the one bespoke Size 3 repeater on a fast tracked chassis aimed at the threat while using terrain and nearby units for protection.

Position Put the Storm where its weapons have a clear view

Aboard the Storm, terrain should provide protective cover and clear sightlines without trapping the vehicle away from nearby vehicles.

Weapon Weapons aboard the Storm

The Storm's crew keeps its weapon role tied to the needs of the nearby ground force rather than fighting as an isolated vehicle.

Recovery Keep the Storm supplied and recoverable

For the Storm, ammunition, damage, fuel, and access to the carrying ship determine how long the vehicle can remain in the field.
