4 guys.  All armed with SMGs.  And if the car is dead
they are not going to be in the mood to tango. 
Actually, IMNSHO

Medium hover AFV, open-topped, with 3 tribarrels and
gunners in open fighting compartment. Iridium armour,
fusion power plant. Slow GEV, class 3 (medium),
signature = D8. No stealth. PGN/1 x 3 on pintle
mounts, enhanced firecons. APFC.  Armour 3 (Iridium).
FGP. Enhanced ECM. 

Is a better writeup for the Combat Cars.  PGN is a
longer-ranged DFFG proposed (along with that writeup)
in Jon Tuffley's Hammer's Slammers conversion for
DSII.

Has the whole article.	It ain't quite
balanced--Powerguns are NASTY.	But it has the flavor
of the genre.
