The Combat Cycle was capable of traversing cliffs and mountains, making it an effective unit for hit and run tactics. Any GLA infantry except the Angry Mob could take over as driver of the Combat Cycle, which also changes the Cycle's weapon. For most GLA factions, the Combat Cycle emerged from the Arms Dealer driven by a Rebel, but General Rodall Juhziz's Arms Dealer and General Leang's War Factory produced Combat Cycles driven by a Terrorist instead.
