The [[ | The '''Barug'qel Workshop Attack Bike''' is a variant in the [[Chopper]] line of vehicles, used by the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | ||
== | ==Overview== | ||
===Design details=== | ===Design details=== | ||
The Baruq'qel Choppers are much in the same vein as their regular and [[Covenant]]-era [[Barukaza Workshop Chopper|counterparts]]. They consist of two massive wheels on the front, and a driver located at the vehicle's rear - protected from enemy fire. The flanks of the vehicle leave the driver exposed to enemy fire. The vehicle is equipped with two [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker]] autocannons, which in themselves are capable of being upgraded to fire explosive shrapnel rounds.{{Ref/Game|Id=PL|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Chopper}} | |||
The | |||
The front of the vehicle is equipped with heavy armor plating and massive spikes, capable of allowing the vehicle to ram enemy targets and punch through light vehicles such as [[Warthog]]s. These blades form the Chopper's namesake, and a reflection of the Brutes' savage culture.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} | The front of the vehicle is equipped with heavy armor plating and massive spikes, capable of allowing the vehicle to ram enemy targets and punch through light vehicles such as [[Warthog]]s.

===Development history=== | |||
The Barug'qel Chopper was developed by the eponymous [[Barug'qel Workshop]], and is mass-manufactured through the [[Armory of Gethrog]]. It was designed to be a much more heavily-armoured vehicle, designed to plow through fortifications and enemy vehicles with ease.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |||
===Usage=== | |||
The Banished Chopper variants are extremely coveted and popular vehicles. Troops under [[Atriox]]'s command often compete with each other to become a Chopper driver in the Banished outrider squadrons, with these competitions resulting in many deaths and injuries among Banished personnel.{{Ref/Reuse|PL}} | |||
==Operational history== | |||
In [[2559#March|March 2559]], the Banished used their own modified version of the Chopper during operations against the crew of the UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'' on Installation 00.{{Ref/Game|HW2|Chopper in-game unit}} [[Blue Team]] later encountered Choppers deployed by Banished forces on [[Reach]] during [[Operation]]: [[Operation: WOLFE|WOLFE]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=SOR12|HSoR|Chapter=12}} | |||

In ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'' Choppers can be built by all Banished leaders besides [[Let 'Volir]] and [[Ripa 'Moramee]] at the [[Banished outpost]]. As a scout unit Choppers can gather resources. Choppers do well against infantry, okay against vehicles, and poorly against aircraft and structures. | In ''[[Halo Wars 2]]'' Choppers can be built by all Banished leaders besides [[Let 'Volir]] and [[Ripa 'Moramee]] at the [[Banished outpost]].
