THE CRAWLER'S COMPANIONpatch notes for the apocalypse

Royal Chariot

First seen: Book 4, Chapter 4

A tracked, two-seat dune vehicle built by Carl and Katia Grim at the engineering and metalworking tables, named by Donut before it even had a system description. Officially tagged by the game itself as "Tracked All-Terrain Suicide Machine. The Royal Chariot – Contraption," whose own flavor text mocks its missing roll cage and questionable center of gravity. Quiet, fast over sand and snow alike, and light enough in two disassembled halves to carry in Carl's own inventory.
