The '''Blisterback''' is a hexapedal heavy air vehicle designed and used by the [[Banished]].

The Blisterback is designed to alternate between two modes: On the ground the Blisterback enters a lockdown mode, stabilizing itself before

its carapace splits open, revealing a battery of long range Anniilator siege missiles for ground targets. It can then

exit lockdown mode to become airborne, closing the rocket carapace and tucking its legs underneath its body to perform a vertical take—off and enabling the use of its medium range plasma cannon to bombard enemy ground and air targets.<ref name="PL"/>
