The disc-shaped blades are oriented horizontally, much like a thrown frisbee. These discs will rebound off of the first hard surface they hit. However, when there is a player in the gunner seat, primary fire will launch three horizontal blades at once. The gunner can also trigger the secondary fire mode, which will throw the discs on a vertical orientation (like wheels), which strike the ground and roll forward in a straight line following the contours of the landscape. The secondary fire mode make engaging ground-based targets easier, as the discs follow the contours of the ground thus eliminating the need for up/down aiming. Both attacks deal the same amount of damage to any foe struck by the sawblades, which will be visible sticking out of any target that is hit. The barrel catapult launcher is a mechanical throwing arm that hurls explosive barrels that explode on impact, with the entire assembly mounted on the rotating turret. After each barrel is thrown, a new barrel automatically digistructs in its place, therefore reloading the catapult. The barrels arc with gravity, necessitating some skill on the gunner's part to compensate for gravity, and to lead moving targets. However, it causes heavy damage with a significant splash damage radius. If operated from the gunner seat, the secondary fire is available which allows the barrels that have been fired via primary fire to be detonated mid-air. The Bandit Technical is a significantly more durable alternative to the Outrunner, and importantly, it can carry the entire party of four players at once. Aside from the driver and gunner, two additional characters can sit in the rear truck bed, and can fire their conventional on-foot weaponry while on board. It is, however, significantly slower and less agile than the Outrunner.
