Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Strogg Vehicles
soldierDesecrator
Long, low, heavily armed and heavily armoured, the Desecrator is a floating nightmare on land, resembling a loathsome segmented insect-turned-weapon.

Mounting a devastating Rail Cannon in its turret and a Heavy Lacerator in its hull, the Desecrator can also hunker down in siege mode, sacrificing mobility for increased firepower.

While the Desecrator can be operated by a single player, maximum effectiveness requires both a Pilot and Gunner.

covert opsCyclops
The massive Cyclops walker is a terrifying sight on the battlefield – its articulated legs afford it excellent mobility over all surface types, allowing it to traverse difficult, sloping terrain and make sudden, unexpected, lethal appearances.

At a distance, the Cyclops is a lethal opponent with twin plasma cannons and a Heavy Lacerator, although its slow rate of turn leaves it vulnerable to determined short-range attack.

The Cyclops can also hunker down in siege mode to form a turret, reducing its silhouette and offering a smaller target.

engineerHog
The Hog is a powerful Strogg wheeled reconnaissance/light attack vehicle. it carries a driver and optional gunner, and is armed with a rapid-fire plasma cannon.

The Hog is also capable of a devastating "ram" attack. Turbo-boosting allows the Hog to generate a highly absorptive/destructive energy shield around its nose, allowing it to crash into enemy units and inflict massive damage while suffering relatively little harm itself.

field opsTormentor:
A nightmarish, buzzing peril, the hovering Tormentor is a heavily armed threat to infantry with its Heavy Lacerator, vehicles with its “Strocket” missiles, and aircraft with its Light Plasma Cannon.

The Tormentor is only lightly armored, however, and while the four vectored anti-gravity repulsors let it hover over a target, they also make it a conspicuous target.

The Tormentor can be operated by a single player, but is most effective with a Pilot maneuvering it and a Gunner operating its weapons.

medicIcarus
The Icarus is a wearable vehicle - an anti-gravity backpack that allows a single player to fly for short hops, clearing all but the tallest buildings. The Icarus can also drop Stroybombs - lethal explosive devices that pose a threat to both enemy infantry and vehicles. The Icarus is slow and relatively noisy, and offers a fairly easy target while airborne - experienced Icarus pilots often restrict themselves to rapid low hops, maximizing their use of cover while still allowing sudden demoralizing aerial ambush attacks.
