Spice Harvester(Edit)

A large, heavy, mobile factory that is dropped by a carryall onto the desert, where it would harvest a spice blow. Harvesters have tracks that allow them to be driven short distances if required. There are two doors (one on each side), and a few windows at the front and sides. Harvesters are fitted with radios, and there is also a direct communication link to the carryall when it is being carried. They have a crew of four to ten.

Carryall(Edit)

A very large ornithopter, used to carry harvesters. Carryalls are fitted with radios, and there is also a direct communication link to the harvester when it is being carried. They have a crew of two.

Ornithopter(Edit)

The most common small transport vessel in the Imperium. A standard ornithopter can carry 6 passengers, 9 if the back seats are removed.

Most 'thopters are winged vessels capable of flight through jet propulsion, as well as by mimicking the movements of birds. While the jets are the primary propulsion system, the wings assist in maintaining altitude and manoeuvring.
