STRENGTHS

• Vroom vroom: All TIE Uniwheels have been designed to be as fast and agile as possible, allowing them to run down fleeing foes or escape danger
• Small: The TIE Uniwheel is a relatively small target, making it more difficult to hit with enemy fire
• Gyro-Servo: Each TIE Uniwheel contains a Gyro-Servo, allowing the vehicle's "cockpit" to remain stabilized even under the most intense maneuvers
• Cheap: Perhaps most important about the TIE Uniwheel is the fact that the vehicle is extremely cheap and easy to manufacture in large numbers

WEAKNESSES

• Fragile: All TIE Uniwheels are lightly armored, forcing them to rely on their speed and maneuverability to survive in combat
• Wheeled: Though they are capable of reaching high speeds, TIE Uniwheels generally cannot match the performance of dedicated repulsorlift craft
• Vulnerable: Should the TIE Uniwheel's support arm become damaged, it can lead to the vehicle's cockpit becoming detached, effectively destroying the vehicle
• Tricky: Driving a TIE Uniwheel requires a fair amount of practice to get use to, as the vehicle tends to operate more like a spaceship then ground craft

DESCRIPTION

The sudden collapse of the Imperial Confederation only served to underscore the Mahporeem Imperial Remnant's need for inexpensive and easily produced ground vehicles, leading to the development of the so called TIE Uniwheel. Quick and inexpensive to manufacture, the TIE Uniwheel is expected to see widespread service within the next few years.

Equipped with a variety of different weapons to target its foes with, the TIE Uniwheel combines high speed and solid maneuverability with a good mixture of firepower, allowing the vehicle to overwhelm enemy assets with its laser cannons, AFT- 14.4000B FLAK Cannons and NZ IPC-1 Ion Pulse Cannon. Anything that the TIE Uniwheel cannot overpower can instead be outrun, thanks to the vehicle's large Run-Flat Tire and the NZ C.H.A.R.M.01 Reactor powering it.

The TIE Uniwheel must utilize its speed, maneuverability and firepower properly if it is to survive on the battlefield, as it is only lightly armored and vulnerable to most forms of attack. A rather curious feature of the vehicle is its Gyro-Servo, which allows the TIE Uniwheel's "cockpit" to stay upright and forward facing even when the vehicle is moving at high speed or performing complex maneuvers.
