  Electric Car TL8

       This vehicle was designed sheerly for experimental purposes with the
  rule system. If anyone actually wants to use it, you can invent your own
  description of what it is for...at the cost of it, I can't imagine why anyone
  would buy one, even if electricity were virtually free.

    CraftID: Electric Car, TL8, Cr20,623
       Hull: 1/2, Disp=0.5, Conf=4USL, Armor=1B, Loaded=0.46t
      Power: 1/2, 0.024MW-hr battery (0.009MW draw), Dur=2hrs 40min

      Other: Cargo=0, ObjSize=Small, EmLevel=Faint

  Electric Motorcycle TL8

  Actually, more like an electric bicycle.  Given the fact that the empty
  vehicle weighs 34 kilograms, this design points out the fact that for very
  small vehicles, the weight of the people should figure into the total loaded
  weight.

    CraftID: Electric Motorcycle, TL8, Cr812
       Hull: 1/2, Disp=0.007, Conf=0USL, Armor=1B, Loaded=0.034t
      Power: 1/2, 0.0008MW-hr battery (0.0002MW draw), Dur=4hrs
       Loco: 1/2, Wheels=2, P/W=5, Road=72kph, Offroad=10kph
       Comm: none
    Sensors: none
        Off: none
        Def: none
    Control: Electronic*0.1
      Accom: Seats=Open*1
      Other: Cargo=0, ObjSize=Small, EmLevel=Faint

  Myrmidon Grav Tank TL15

       The Myrmidon is a heavy grav tank.  It sacrifices mobility for protec-
  tion, and is equipped with armor that will prevent penetration by anything
  short of a starship weapon.  Its large size permits long endurance.  Its
  sensor and communication suite is equal to that carried by most Imperial
  warships, which enables it to be readily integrated into any sort of combined
  arms operation.

    CraftID: Myrmidon Grav Tank, TL15, MCr26.21
