The Soviets once pondered on creating a subterranean troop transporter which will be able to stealthily infiltrate enemy bases and send out kill teams to wreck havoc or outright take control of the base. The idea was scrapped though. Fortunately, the late Master Yuri was able to recover the blueprints for the project, knowing that it will serve his successor's army well. Fast forward to present day where the Chimera has since made this very vehicle, which they call 'The Worm', their main method of transporting infantry. It is not that fancy, having only a robust body but lacking any armaments whatsoever, but it gets the job done efficiently. Able to carry a five man squad or a single Brute under the cover of the earth around it, the Worm can single-handedly become the most dangerous weapon the Chimera can field. When underground, nothing can touch it or even see it. Sensors can reveal it's position though, but so long it stays underground it is safe. It is when the enemy turns a blind eye where it's notoriety as a dangerous weapon comes into play. It can suddenly pop out in poorly defended areas of the base, sometimes even in the middle of it, and unload its troops which may vary from Technician capture teams to elite Executioner squads or even a hulking Brute. When going up against this adversary, always keep your eyes peeled. If it helps a bit the Worm crews need proper info about where they are going. They do not drive into uncovered terrain for safety reasons such as avoiding enemy fire.
