Gaiaterra: Elysea's Conflict/Desert Cruiser

"Under my command of Stormrage."

-Desert Cruiser

The Desert Cruiser is the Stormrage Cell epic unit, under command of Malfurion Stormrage. Voiced by Ed Trotta

Tactical analysis

 * King of the desert: A super tank built to compete with the likes of the Elephant. The Desert Cruiser is the heaviest armored vehicle within the MLA arsenal, capable of handling most armies on its own with its array of weaponry and boltering surrounding armored forces with its loudspeakers preaching out Elune.
 * Reuse, reduce, recycle: The Desert Cruiser is equipped with on-board repair kits, spare parts, and a team of engineers to "recycle" any destroyed vehicle, restoring any MLA wreckage to full function that is quickly filled by spare crew members within the Cruiser, essentially reviving downed vehicles around it. Though it only works on MLA vehicles.
 * The alleged tank: While the Desert Cruiser is powerful compared to similar units, such as the MARV, it comes out short. Its weapons are rather weak when compared to similar epics, its armor is on the lower end, and its mortar and rockets have a low rate of fire. Thus its highly advise that the Desert Cruiser fights with an escort to cover its weaknesses and revive any vehicle that falls.
 * Ground anchor: Prior to his death, Huchum had improved upon the Desert Cruiser with sets of A-frame crane booms hinged on the turret to conduct repairs for nearby vehicles, increasing the speed vehicles crews can repair, and refitting autoloaders on the armaments, increasing its rate of fire and freeing up crew space, and had begun entering mass production with the intent of replacing the older model. But with his death and his strongholds destruction at the hands of general Bao, alongside all of his blueprints being burnt in the fire, the newer Desert Cruiser models are now locked in storage, as the MLA currently has no way to reproduce it, with only the most experienced crew being allowed to pilot it.

Overview
Thanks to his new generals' technology, Mohmar devised more plans for a multipurpose tank just like the Guan Yu and the Karakurt. However, he was not impressed by Karakurt's mediocre fire range but he was interested in the Karkadann's chassis design, so he asked Huchum to make him a similar chassis for what he will call the Desert Cruiser, a true multipurpose super heavy tank.

Ground Anchor
Friendly vehicles around the Desert Cruiser gain auto-repair/increased repair rate, and increase Desert Cruiser ROF by 150%.
