        and drive them? First, they're cheap. Second, reverse
        trikes have excellent handling properties. Third, they have
        access to a wider variety of power plants and engines than any
        other vehicles. Fourth, their side mounted weapons have
        overlapping fields of fire. Fifth, their small size makes them
        difficult to hit with most weapons. 
     
Do
        they have drawbacks? Of course. Their compact size provides a
        very limited amount of space for weaponry. Additionally, they do
        half damage and take double damage in collisions due to their
        light weight.

        Notes: The Mosquito is fast, maneuverable, hard to
          hit, and inexpensive. Its ram plate is best used against other
          cycles, as the vehicle is too light to do much damage to cars.
          Its ice dischargers pose a threat when combined with the
          driver's vehicular shotgun and the passenger's submachine gun.

        Notes: The Fulcrum is designed to use its ice gun and
          ice dischargers in combination with the passenger's submachine
          gun to turn other vehicles over (thus, "fulcrum"). Its ram
          plate is best used against other cycles, as the vehicle is too
          light to do much damage to cars.

        Notes: Trikes have never gotten much respect . . .
          Until now. While the Swarm is neither agile nor fast, it packs
          an earth shaking punch. Since trikes' side mounted weapons
          have overlapping fields of fire, the Swarm's twin V.F.R.P.s
          can unleash an unholy salvo of TWELVE rockets in a single
          shot. These rockets are guided by a military targeting laser,
          allowing them to hit on a 4 or better with no range penalties.
          The rockets themselves do 1d6+1 each. That's an average of
          about 45 points of damage per salvo.
