Hedgehog

Hedgehog is a Vanguard unit in Stormgate.

Gameplay

The Hedgehog is the fastest unit in the game. Its closest rival (in terms of speed) is the Fiend.[1]

The Hedgehog is a type of missile-wielding jeep. A fast vehicle with an explosive payload, it can fire off its missiles rapidly, doing a lot of damage, but then it has to reload. Ergo, its effectiveness is balanced out by micromanagement requirements, as it needs to dart in and out of combat while it loads new missiles. The payload is visible on the vehicle to all players.[2] The payload recharges one missile at a time.[3]
