MAX-97 (Mobile Armored eXo suit)



The MAX-97 Exo-suit was intially designed to suppliment an individuals strength and give them additional armor and firepower to help push through heavily defended choke points or to smash thier way through urban environs. BUilt upon a super strong frame with hydrolics and galvanic motors providing the power the suit is loaded with heavy weapons and thick plates of Adamantium and Plasteel plating alongside a void sheild generator in the back pack unit which makes them as durable as the Tactical Dreadnought armor (Termiantor) of the Space marines dispite the holes in the armor like around the joints. Thankfully the operator often wears armor underneath the plates to compensate. The weapons built into the are usually a Storm Bolter build into the right arm of the device and a powerful melee weapon is integrated into the left. Others can have a Heavy Flamer or a Assault cannon integrated in place of the Storm bolter. The Melee Weapons vary but often each trooper takes their own choice, and only the Sergent takes an integrated power sword.





Only the most seasoned and strongest soldiers are picked to wear the MAX-97 the applications number in the thousands but only a 5% are choosen based on mental and physical abilitys and even then only 1% make it through the training and get to wear the suit. Section 9 doesn't trust any idiot with an Exo-Suit. (last time that happened the suit went through a building. the Seciton 9 Commander wasn't happy at all)







The others (T95000, Warp Wasp, Servitors, etc) still being painted.

Still, wicked cool looking suits

Those are badass! What bit did you use as the torso frames?

For the Sergent its 2 thin wire-like plasticard pieces connected to the back unit (a vox caster) to make a harness

for the heavy flamer and the guy with a Aircraft helmet the harness is the same harness as the one in a Drop pod.

The last 2 are actully the frame that goes around a model tanks head lights. (the frames came from the War Wasp Sherdinan tank)

im assuming thats what your asking.



The Armor itself is a combo of Sprue (like the sections infront of the hands and on the legs), plastic pipes and plasticard pieces.

Each guy also has a back pack (like a power, shield and control unit).

1 is a space marine pack, 3 are Vox packs, and one is the back pack of a Servitor model.

If i ever extend the squad (or make a second squad even) ill make a short Lego-ish thign that shows what i did.


Its very simple construction actully. the suits are built around a Guardsmen model for the most part. They will eventually get a 1 and a 1/2 inch circle glued to the bottom of their bases to simulate the proper base of a terminator.

Love those Mk1 termies even more now they're painted.

You painting seems to have improved aswell.

Keep it up.

D

The MAX-97 Exo Suit Terminators now have the proper sized bases.. they are just glued straight down, nothing really special. but i knew if i tried to remove them from their origional infantry bases it might cause severe damage so i did not even bother to try to remove them.




As for the T95000 Super Heavy Assault Tank "Engine of War"
Its still in the process of being painted and it no where near done. but this is what i have so far.



the Mechanicus shrine on the rear still needs a bit.



Top deck/front



several gauges on its side. need a bit of cleaning up and more detail.



Left side.



Right side.



As for the Wasp Wasp, Vulcan Macharius. its still mostly black with some yellow on it now. not really much to see


Automatically Appended Next Post:
WIth the new bases for my "Terminators" came a bunch of other bases.

a legion of infantry bases with those little slots in them (for metal models). whcih im sure ill find a miriade of uses.of which I cannot think of immediantly the uses seem to come in the heat of the moment during construction of things.

several of the long bases (i think for units like Rough riders and such). im sure i can configure some motorcycles should i see fit, with of course my own flair and modifications.

A proper Dreadnaught base came in the bag as well so instead of the ultra thin base i located (which is similar to the same base i used on the Hell WHeel, Scout Bike/ Sentinal) so i can actully have potentially 2 Golem Suit "Dreadnaughts".
One will be the standard Dreadnaught with varriable weapons (plasma cannon, las cannons, assault cannon and whatever plus giant face crushing fist), the other will be an iron clad dread design with increased armor and such.

You appear to have an infinite amount of money, yet absolutely zero modelling and painting skills.
You should really try to hone some skills and develop some technique, then perhaps your ideas could be executed much better than they currently are.

I have redacted this comment, and simply put the user on ignore.

I suddenly can't remember what he even said. geez that ignore button is strong.

The OP did invite comments in his first post of the thread, surely one can't be expecting nothing but praise?

And if my comment is read properly, you would understand that I like the ideas behind the conversions and some of the home brew rules, yet I feel that the execution is somewhat lacking and could be carried out with more care.

Never actully hit ignore.

I don't actully have an "unlimited budget". im cheap to say the least and seem to end up with everyones bitz and peices. I buy models from freinds (good one would be 3 Leman Russ for $40. all built and in good condition, each was modified), and for non-gw models i go for the cheaper ones. like a $30 Maus Super heavy tank (which is as long as a bane blade and as wide with sponsons attached)


At the local store. more often then not if someone is giving away parts. I end up with the entire box should they need to get rid of them all for good, even after i've picked out a few peices.
So i have a good bunch of bitz.

to be exact. 1 Leman Russ box and 1 battle wagon box are compeletly full of "Large Bitz". Such as vehicale peices, guns, wings, whatever.
then i have 1.5 small boxes (that attach to the top of my black toolbox/transport case) were one is soley used for infantry parts. from lasguns, to Rokit Launchas, its all piled in this one box. then another has a few setions of tank tracks and a bunch of bases.


I know my modeling skills are not A grade, but the current models are only a small begining of the more scratch built-ish builds. hell the first was a Basilisk that was carved from flat slabs of plasticard, and a few models from there, the plasticard was merely used for patchs or small structural pieces. But all i really care about is having fun at it. im slowly improving.

As for the paint. I've never been a good painter, sure improvment with practice and all but at the same time i don't want to take an eternity with a model (especially an infantry model, i dunno why but the idea of taking a day or more on a single little guy i cannot fathom, but i respect those who do it). That and with the IG there are alot of dudes to paint.....


As for the ideas.

From concept to construction to completion.

In my head i can see the blueprints and the idea for a machine/weapon as if it came roaring out of a movie/ viode game or even if it was real. As for transfering that to paper (or in this case plastic) it doesn't always turn out the way i want.

For example. The Tesla Tank on page one.
I wanted it to have loads more wires and sparks arcing off of it and all sorts of crazy things. (hell i even had the idea to get a miniature tesla coil and stick it in a future Storm Blade to give a "Tesla BaneBlade" real tesla sparks), obviously it did not turn out that way. But I like it anwyays and in battle i can see all of the electricity arcing off of it and it unleashing lightning bolts into the enemy (in my imagination anyway. Thats whats unlimited in this scenario, not my budget or resources).


If someone takes fault with my models.
I Shrug and move on and build whats next. (The models will never see a tourney anyways. Or at the very least play in one, im sure a tourney guy would flip seeing the modifications)
As for physical characteristics of the models against the Rules. Well... i actully use the standard "shape" of the unit to determine the range/armor hits/ and so on.

Example: was playing a game against a Dark Eldar player. the Reaper (the 4 legged tank) was going to fire at some enemys (i forget the unit). and the Dark eldar guy says soemthign like "Yours not gonna fire from that hieght right?" when refered to the Reapers tall stature and the gun being physically above that of a normal Leman Russ. I somply say "No" and i put the tape measurer's end int eh genreral location of a normal Leman Russ tanks gun (underneath the Reapers gun, approxamatly where the turret ring is hieght wise) and measure from there.



If there was a way to download your thoughts into one of those 3D printer style devices. All manner of weird and awesome machines would be spit out of the device. But for now Im slowly working on improving both, model construction and painting. Slowly but im doing it...

The T95000 im gonna try and get detailed and painted well for all i can do.

You have 3 mediocre paintjobs at best in the gallery. What exactly qualifies you as an expert on such things? You don't get to be a troll, then try to explain it away as "not reading the post correctly" or "I feel that the execution is somewhat lacking and could be carried out with more care". What you said is "...yet absolutely zero modelling and painting skills" You are NOT providing constructive criticism, you are just simply being a prick.

Moving on.

i don't dwell on BS.

Anyways. on my local stores website i've offered to build some emplaced weapons (like battle cannons, bolters, and so on). Should I get some requests ill put together some weapons for my store.

the Battle Cannons will be built like old WW2 Anti Tank guns mounted to large turret mounts or wheels.
Bolters, and other automatic weapons will be on tripod mounts or similar mounts to the battle cannons (like a trailer or something)

Quad guns or hydra turrets even.


I was thinking on making the emplaced weapons very powerful (to give a good reason for someone to get to the weapon and use it)

Like an Emplaced Quad Heavy bolter giving 6 shots that are all TL. thats a real hail of lead and a normal army cannot bring such a thing so that firepower would give a good reason to actully march troops out to operate the gun.

Also a new misson could revolve around an extreamly powerful emplaced weapon.
the deployment would be on the furthest ends of the table possible.

in the dead center of the table could be a giant weapon that would normally be mounted on a Super heavy in an apoc game. like a baneblade cannon or a turbo laser or something. the actual object in the center could be a giant abandoned tower or a wrecked super heavy (with only its main weapon still operable) or something.

there would be 5 objectives. 4 smaller objectives and the giant weapon in the center. the weapon would be worth more points then 2 of the objectives. so the main gun is a very contested place and whoever hold it can use it to blast a giant chunk out of the enemys army.

the center gun could have armor 13/13/13 with 5 hull points. and from its large size, cover saves are 3+ and it can block line of sight. should it be destroyed it explodes with a ST 8 AP 2 blast that goes 5 inchs around it.

objective points.

1 small objective. 2 points
the Main Gun. 4 points.


needs more tweaking but I think it would be cool.

Planet: Mekiera 9 (Hive Planet); Ultima Segentum
Situation: Chaos Warband attack, Dark Mechanicus Titan Forces detected, Demon incursion imminet.
Space Marine Chapter "Blood Blades" Deployed, condition unknown
Impeiral Guard Regiments, 91st Experimental, 107th Cadian Infantry, 504th "Roaring Tigers" Artillary, 764th "Sledgehammers" Armored . condition: In combat

Location: Hive City, IronCliff
Status: Heavy Urban Combat, Chaos Titans detected.

The giant Dark Reaver titan "Infernum Bellator" strode through the wide streets of the Hive City, any and all loyalists it found it incinerated with no mercy. Turning a corner and smashing through a spire with a crash, it came upon a small fleet of tiny Leman Russ Tanks and chimeras. The Demon within the Reaver belowed its name through all loyalist comm channels and through the speakers embedded in the metal hide of the titan. The men below immediatly bailed from the chimeras and the little tanks opened fire with all their might. The shells pings harmlessly off the titans void sheilds as it systematically blasted each tank with a searing beam from its turbo lasers. As the huge titan searched for the infantry and chimeras its senses were alerted to the buildings flanking it. the little insects had set up lascannons and were aiming at it! the buildings on either side became bright with bright blasts of las cannon fire and the Reavers shields began to flicker under the assault. In a deafening roar it swung its arms into the buildings at the pests hiding within them, smashing its arms through the solid ferrocrete sending chunks of it everywhere along with the bodies of the guardsmen. As the dust settled and the Demon controlled war machine paused to find any who survived, crushing several guardsmen underfoot, a pair of las cannon beams blasted into the Reavers back and the void sheilds finally gave out for good. Infernum Bellator turned around, hatred and anger burning through its hydrolic fluid and warp twisted circuitry only to see a lone Baneblade of some sort many meters away. The "Baneblade" had an incredibly long cannon mounted in a flat super structure and it was aiming for the Dark Reaver. Both war machines stared each other down until an angry hiss of the hydrolic legs heralded the Reavers charge. As the massive Reaver titan charged at the baneblade its cannon let out a blast, blue flames of plasma vomiting out of the gun barrel as the hyper dense round roared through the air. The shell smashed into the Reavers leg joint disintigrating it. the great beast fell face first into the ground screaming in agony and rage. The titan tried to push itself upright for several minutes and when i managed to look up the Baneblade had moved its gun to point blank range. As the Titan screamed its name for the last time the Baneblade fired and blew the titans head into a thousand peices.

I belive the T95000 Super Heavy Tank "Engine of War" is done.


















It may not seem "better" then previous paints. but i feel like its better. Still needs a big Muzzle Break but right now. im just enjoying my tank fluff and all lol.

Fluff wise the T95000 now is the main command tank (it used to be the Thunderfury) but in force the Super heavys crush everything before them!!


I just gotta paint the War Wasp now. along with a few infantry and servitors. the Medusa project has stalled for no reason in particular, ill probly make something else then complete it.

But what to make?

I like how you added the touch of road dirt on it.

All the other super heavy tanks have black tracks. so i thought a bit more detail would be good for it.

I got myself a small aircraft for a Stormtalon. a F9F-3 Panther. Its easily a good size to the little flying brick of a Stormtalon and i can attach lascannons and all the other weapons i need to play as a stormtalon. I can get a flying base (aka the monster creature base or whatever) from a freind and possibly use a old coat hander or whatever to supsend the aircraft above the base. ill figure that out later,

Also. Out of boredom im adding to fluff of mah regiments planet.


Classifcation: Death World
Tithe: Refurbished weapons and Parts. Guard Regiment.
Gravity: 1.3 Terra Gravity
Climate: Temprate to Arid. Massive Gamma Storms scortch the planet frequently (mega lightning storms) can vaporize a human being instantly, Massive Dust Storms can rend flesh from bone in 3.27 seconds (according to the Mechanicus). Acid rain is incredibly toxic.
Water: All water on the planet is toxic and full of metals due to the massive amounts of wrecks and scrap metal littering the planet
Human Lifestyle: Ever played the Game RAGE? And seen Mad Max? its a combo of the 2 in terms of civilian life.
Traditions: each village has minor variations or additions but the primary traditions are.
1. By age 7, the citizen must assemble their own weapon (such as a salvaged Lasgun, very common)
2. By age 16, a Citizen must construct their own transportation. Car, Bike, buggy whatever.
3. Entrance into the Imperial Guard (The 91st specifically, it works similarly to the Vostrorian, in terms of all recruits are funneled to the regiment), requires assembly of all their equipment.
Ex: if entering the infantry one must assemble thier armor, lasgun and magazines, and so on. If entering the Mechanized or Armored aspect (tanks) you must gather the crew and build the machine. The Machine must be scrutinized by the C.O through trials. If failed they are sent back to build again or modify the machine. if failed 3 times they are rejected and forcfully assigned to the infantry.

Technology level: Forge World Grade.
Food Production: Farms established inside wrecked space craft. able to sustain the planet if nessasary.
Water: Filtration systems established, able to sustain planet if rationing is established.

The "Engine of War" is looking really great.

D

Well.
The little fighter plane is about the size of a StormTalon. least thats what im guessing. I have not seen one up close but those i've seen on the web and such are not very large at all.

Its not done but my little StormTalon should fly just the same. Its armed with the Assault cannon and the lascannons and such.

Ill get it a flying base and such soon after its fully painted.







Apparently with some effort i have just enough to use my Section 9 units ("Allies"). Im hoping to get to use them this thursday. Im going to attempt an Airbourne blitzkreig with my Venddettas and this little Stormtalon escorting them in.

Ill also use this new mission type i designed.
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/469132.page

Called the "God Weapon"

Ah, that is one thing my Guard do not yet have models for, air power!

I've got 3 aircraft now. all of which are unique and able to tear open the enemy!

the Vendettas are on page 1 of the Blog.

named the Tornado and the Sky Hammer.
Tornado is the Helicopter and the Sky Hammer has a pair of predator las cannons on its cheaks with captured rocket racks on top of its wings (the name of them escapes me)

Apologies, but your logic is awful. By that logic, someone couldn't be an expert on politics save for being a Senator/President. Nor could a football coach be good unless he was in the NFL. You lack the understanding of what we in the 21st century refer to as "careful study and research." I cannot convert to save my life, but I can most certainly recognize a good conversion, and a bad one. Neither am I a musician, but I can for sure pick the good songs on the radio from the awful ones. This is due to exposure. I have seen great conversions, I have seen crappy ones.

I understand ryanroberts' post may have come off as mean, but that does not justify your post being illogical.

Jet "Stormtalon" is ready and only needs a base and a stand. I can get the base from a freind but then ill need to find some sort of stand for the jet. I might order a flying stem and base from my store if i can't figure something out.





I've also ordered a Panther Tank (Panzerkampfwagan 6 Panther) for my Section 9 "Land Raider". Origionally I concieved the Land Raider as a giant 8 or 6 wheeled APC but the armored hull of a tank like the Panther will do fine.
Remove the Turret, add an upper super structure, give it an assault ramp along with sponsons for the Lascannons and a mini turret for the assault cannons and so on.

Bob and Steve my Tech preists finnaly have their own Servitors.

3 each, i know they can have 4 or so but i traded 1 and can't find the others that i got from the Tech Marine boxs.

i kinda rushed with them. I was more happy that i actually got them done then anything else. having then in pieces for a long time, until building them and they were based for a long time until i finnaly painted them and i just wanted them done.

plus i figured somethign out and the guy i outiftted with terminator arms can be my Captain for my SM allies and the HQ unit with a storm bolter and powerfist.



For now hes named "Iron Sides" and im still trying to find a non-cliche name. but for now it works.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I actully got around to finishing the Medusa.

Instead of the whole "Energy Cannon" idea. I just have a Salvaged Chimera with a Medusa cannon in the top. The top is enclosed and armored (for what armoring a Chimera is worth )


Instead the vehicale only has 3 Crew instead of 4 (or whatever the standard crew is for a gun such as the medusa)

The crew are the Driver, Vox operator (radio man) who also operates the bow heavy bolter, and the gunner. The gun is loaded through a autoloader mechanism built into vehicale.

the ammo is stored in the hull while the loader system is behind the gun.

Behind the gunner is the coginator (for assisting in aiming the gun) and the Air filtration system as well as the access tunnel where the crew can preform matinence to the loader system or reload the system


I've named it the JagdMedusa for now. might even be given the Sturm (assault) section of the name at some point. It should get a good name soon.

I knew if I built somthing else i would get the initiative to build the rest of the Medusa. From here im gonna try and work green stuff around the cannon to cover up the hole behind it.



Whats Next would be the Land Raider for my Terminators and obvioiusly some modified troops for my Allies Troop choice. I've already order a panther tank from my local hobbytown so as soon as I get that i can start working on it. Of course a Space Marine codex would be a good thing to get to help with points and kitting out my Ally units.

I finished my little Medusa Siege Cannon.



Named the Sturm Natter (i dunno, it sounds neat to me) I completed its painting and construction much eariler today but then i got side tracked and instead of posting about it. I played World of Tanks and RAGE for a while.

Fresh from the wastelands of Schrott the Medusa Siege Gun known as the Sturm Natter was once used by the local law enforcement to deal with Marauders. Marauders are bands of utterly mad and savage humans (some belive they are abhumans) that have a blood thirsty demenor and have the craftmanship of Orks (but don't need to belive it works. their equipment actully works), and they travel in bands that kill whoever they come across and steal their belongings. Sometimes when a Band gets large enough the "leader" establishes a fortress or some other semblence of a base to direct his minions from. the Sturm Natter was used to smash these shoddy forts down while the other members of the Enforcers deal with any Marauders that move to attack the cannon. The Imperial Tithe granted the Sturm Natter a life of galactic combat alongside the 91st Experimental Regiment. It was quickly replaced in the Enforcers and they still continue to keep the Marauders in check in the scrap covered wastlands of Schrott.



Now im just waiting for the Panther Tank to arrive so i can begin construction of a Land Raider.

My Panther Tank arrived and its the perfect size for a Land Raider even if its a fraction of a inch longer (its hardly noticable) in the hull. Its not as tall as a standard GW Land Raider but im going to add an upper superstructure to it anyways. Its also a fraction of an inch wider then a sponson-less land raider but Its going to need sponson lascannon which i have plenty of room to add some.

So soon
This (or a 1/35th scale model of one anyways)


will become equivlilent to one of these.

minus the Spehess Puppies driving it or the Romboid Shape.

It will gain the Assualt Ramp on the front. the Lascannon Sponsons. Heavy Bolter front Turret (or if possible assault cannons, i need to get a hold of a Space Marine codex for more details), and a Pintle Weapon (hopefully a multi melta, if not a standard bolter would work). and whatever else is nessasary to be a proper "Land Raider".
it will also gain turn signals (100 points to those who get the reference)

But of course instead of Space Marines in the drivers seat. It will be highly trained crew men of Section 9 who will transport my "Terminators" into battle.

Speaking of Terminators im going to need to construct another. Turns out i can't have a Heavy Flamer and a Assault Cannon (once again. i don't have the codex yet). but that doesn't matter as i can whip together another MAX-97 Suit soon as i get around to digging in my bitz to find a Storm Bolter, and a Guardsmen to put in the suit.



Im headed to a small game day at my local Hobbytown (they decided to get more into 40k recently) so i should get some good fun and possibly even win something should i do well. So that should be fun. In the mean time. Panther to Land Raider and another MAX-97 Suit.

More thoughts about Planet fluff. boredom does this.

Wildlife: Many of the local wildlife before Schrott was turned into a Machanicus Vault was decimated and what was left of that was killed off during the 500 Year War as the mountains of vehicales, bodies, and equipment piled up all over the planet. What is left are spare populations of a few creatures. None are edible without preperation due to their adaptations to their new evironment.

Razorboar: large pig like creatures that wander the wastes in small family groups searching for edible fungus (one of the few plant life to still live). Their name comes from the evelutionary adaptation of hair on their back that through out the boars life acumulates metals the fungus contains turning them into razor sharp metal quils that make the boar very hazerdous to approach. the meat requies preperation before consumption or the consumer will come down with what is esentially Lead Poisoning. The beasts are very protective of their heards and will attack unprovoked.

Lightning Tigers: large feline creatures that can gained the ability to discharge electricity to kill prey from a distance. Even without this ability the beasts have large claws and fangs that can tear a man to shreds. Usually solitary and avoid human contact. Some have been tamed to be used as hunting animals but this is considered foolish as the creature could turn on its owner should it choose.

Zoa: flightless birds that stand 5 feet tall and run at high speeds. their feathers are infused with steel to create a shiny tough layer of armor. the males feathers are expecially shiny and are used to attact mates. The Zoa are incredibly stupid as well and they have a tendency to eat anything, there are reports of small flocks consuming grenades thrown at them... only for a resulting boom and shower of metal feathers and bird guts (to which the other Zoas do not react to with any alarm, that their breatheren have detonated!). It is considered a hillarious endevor for youths to hunt Zoas in this manner.

Iron Eagles: Famous birds of prey that resemble the Imperial Aquilla in flight (minus the second head). their diet has them feasting on small mammels and their feathers glow bright gold in the sky (which is why they are so famous and prized creatures). It is illegal to harm one (by penalty of execution), but there are methods of moving nests that have been built in incoveniant places. their fallen feathers fetch a very high price to those on Schrott or those in the rest of the Imperium.

Blast Rats: Small hated rodents that if hit with great force can actully explode. The blast for is equivilent to that of a frag grenade (must less yeild then the Catachan Barking toads) but they congregate in large clans and should an infestation be found within a structure, great care must be taken to remove them otherwise a series of explosions could obbliderate the building and its occupants.

Rust Fish: one of the few species of fish that survive the metal rich waters on Schrott. They make use a chemical reaction to gain energy using the metals in the water. They are named for their rusty red coloration. They are totally inedible due to the total saturation of their systems with heavy metals.

amoung other creatures. Such as the common livestock from around the Imperium which are housed in safty in the agricultural based settlements

Plantlife: Few plants live on Schrott and those that do are small and often shelter themselves inside wrecks or alcoves to hide from the harsh weather.

Gamma Blossom: a rare flower with medicinal properties. It hides inside old reactors and other wrecked power generators and blooms during the Gamma Storms that scortch the planet. Its theorized the plant blossoms due to some magnetic disturbance made by the Gamma Storms.

Bore Grass: a simple grass like plant that has roots capable of boring through solid steel plate. It is mostly relegated to being a lawn grass aboard the crashed Space Craft citys that litter Schrott. It mostly does not exist in the wild as the Weather blasts it out of existance.

As well as a few others. including the few sustinence plants imported form other planets that are secluded to Agricultural settlements.

And the Legion of Guardsmen plus the Tech preists and the MAX-97 Terminators.

an update. finnaly.

the "Land Raider" is coming along. I've yet to figure out some sort of side doors. but im not done so i have time to get around to them.







Im probly going to magantize the las cannon turrets when they are completed.

Otherwise the "Invasor Assault Transport" is still being built.

Heavy bolters in the front. Lascannon sponsons, hunter killer, and a "pintle mounted" multi melta.

XLR-82 "Invader, Armored Assault Vehicale.

The Invader is an offshoot of the Land Raider Design, When it was first built it was deemed too far gone in terms of the normal Land Raider design. Its creator vanished from records everywhere along with any and all data on the machines construction and the Invador itself vanished until it turned up on Schrott when a group of local boys were hunting for parts for their weapons as part of the tradition upon Schrott where children by the age of 7 must assemble their own personal ranged weapons. The armored behemoth was found lieing on its side with its internal components scattered about it, like a great beast that lay dieing. Section 9 Tech Preists quickly came upon the scene and whisked away the machine and its parts. It quickly reappeared on the battlefield, where its transports Section 9's heavy MAX-97 Exo Suit troopers, while supporting them with its heavy weapons. The sponson lascannons were heavily damaged from the time it spent out in the wastelands and both the sponsons and the guns themselves are different from one another. Its heavy plasma reactor powerplant puts out more power then the traditional Land Raider power plant but governing keeps it moving at approxamatly the same speed.




Also I built a 6th MAX-97 trooper to get a proper set of "Termiantors". so i can switch between a squad with a Assault cannon or Heavy flamer. He just needs paint and a proper base.... maybe i can get one from my little brothers tyranids. one of his warriors fell apart and its only a pair of legs on a base. I could possibly get that from him.




Ill get these painted soon.
