Well it has been a while, and things have gotten quiet around here, dispite having stuff on the forums, we seem dead only because noone visits the forum anymore. However, we are breaking out of our isolation with a bang. also check on the site, as thing may be added, changed and replaced.

This time its time to bring in the heavy hitters. Today we have units, and thanks to some extra work from our modelers, we also have some shots of them in action. Also note that you might see one of our signs that show everything from warning signs to crossing signs. they might look odd, but are funny to see sometimes.

Tanker bug

This flame-spouting, ground-burrowing beast is a force to be reckoned with. Cumbersome and slow, it still packs quite a wallop if you get in its way. Its bio-chemically propelled flame-blowing stunt has considerable range and should be avoided at all costs. It has thick armor all around except on its belly and at a weak point on the back, which the MI quickly used on every chance it got. There have been rumors of a form of "King Tanker" about that is worse then this. Just the rumor is enough to make you wet your pants.

A Marauder Suit is essentially a tank on legs, a 10 ft. tall mechanical exoskeleton which moves slightly faster than a human and can carry a wide range of ammo (including nuclear weapons). The Duck comes standard with a 8 barreled chaingun, a back LRM launcher and a side launcher. The only bad thing about the marauders is their maintenance problems. Each maruader requires 26 hours of maintenance to go from "cold" (storage) to "hot" (operational). Despite such preparations, Marauder Suits only have about an hour or so of active flight time before winding down.
Despite these setbacks, the marauder is a fearsome machine that, if not for its fighttime, would win the war for the Federation.
