The Qavardu Workshop war-skiff is a transport vehicle employed by the Banished.[1][3]
Overview
Design details
The war-skiff is a versatile transport vehicle with a design descended from raiding vehicles used in the post-immolation ravaged landscapes of the Jiralhanae homeworld Doisac. The skiff bears broad resemblance to the Prowler and Marauder war-sleds; however, rather than a heavily armoured hull, the vehicle has large seating spaces for several passengers alongside the driver and gunner. The gunnery port is situated at the vehicle's front - featuring a modular port that allows for a diverse array of cannons to be installed (though generally restricted to lighter weapons).[1]
Usage
The War-Skiff is a transport vehicle that was used by the Banished to ferry prisoners of war from the Redoubt of Sundering to Chak 'Lok's Tower during the Battle for Zeta Halo.[3] The vehicle's design almost resembles the Qavardu Workshop Prowler with huge spaces in the center of vehicle. War-Skiffs used in the conflict were manufactured by the Forge of Raansek and developed by the Qavardu War-Forges.[1]
Production notes
The Skiff was unveiled as a MEGA Brands set in 2020, with the ability to be rebuilt in two other forms. When transformed into a fortification wall, anyone shielding themselves with this will be protected at a huge height and almost 180-degree with the turret mounted on the top, when transformed into the walker, the walker has 4 legs for mobility and two fang-like in the front. The walker is granted two new weapons not present in the transportation mode.
