Maggot Driver

W.O.R.M.S* are self-propelled artillery specialists of the Cobra ground forces and are cross-trained within their blanket specialty. Any single W.O.R.M.S can man any position on a Maggot, be it driver, gunner, loader or diesel mechanic.

Under optimum conditions, a Maggot is manned by a crew of four; commander, driver, gunner and loader, under battle condtions, it is possible for a Maggot to stay in action, maintaining fire capability with its crew reduced to two.

"A battery of Maggots can recieve target information from a central fire control vehicle and is capable of firing guided and brilliant munitions, some of which are ECM** resistant, fire and forget, self targetting proximity fused HEAT*** rounds.

A Maggot's crew doesn't have to think too hard, which is why the only requirement for being a W.O.R.M.S is the ability to walk while holding a bogie wheel under one arm and a 155mm shell under the other"
