Category:Skimmers

Stradling the gap between true ground vehicles and full aircraft, skimmers're machines that make use of an assortment of different technologies of varying complexity, all to achieve a small amount of lift, to suspend them a few feet above the ground. Whether it be by anti-grav, air-cushion, or something even stranger, the end result lets them sail over rough terrain with ease, but generally requires them to forgo heavy armour, in order to remain light enough to actaully take off at all... Y'know, unless you're the Necrons, in which case you can make them as tough as a Land Raider.
