8-Wheel WCD Drivebase Design

The west coast drivebase (WCD) is an upgraded tank drivebase that retains the defensive capability of a tank with the added ability to turn. For a more indepth discussion of drivebases, including the design of a WCD, refer to Macro Design: Preparing for the Game Drop chapter 2.

Showcased here is an 8-wheel WCD that can be purchased from Andymark.

See Ref 3 for an introduction to a 6-wheel WCD.
