Howdy Dakkaites! Would anyone happen to know the rough dimensions of a Space Marine Drop Pod?  I have it modeled in AutoCAD right now and I know height and width wise I more than likely don't have the right dimensions. I haven't modeled anything in a while and thought this would be good challenge. I'd just like the total height and the width from endpoint to endpoint. Not asking for anything specific, although I would like to know if the base of the darn thing is a pentagon in shape. That's it!

I must admit though, that it is harder to translate than the original french...

No politics on the Dakka boards. No matter how funny. The politically charged posts have been deleted (both sides).

But anyone bold or unfortunate enough to locate the OT zone can see it, with bonus features and commentary.

Do not use the CLEAR dice!
Dear Whiny Space Marine Players,
you get 3+ armor saves on all your troops (save scouts), Assault cannons, a huge assortment of vehicles and weapons, arguably one of the best if not THE best tank in the game, funny helmets, and a partrige in a pear tree.
suck it up, space marines. You're the emperor's chosen superhuman warriors. stop whining like a guardsmen and take it like a superman! |

other highlights include
"module of landing"
"furnish then the section"
"We now will add details thanks to some plastic bunches." seems that sprue translates to bunch
"paperboard-feather"
"Saw of model making"
"print the gauges defer them on paperboard-end, strong paperboard or paperboard-feather"
well I guess even google isn't perfect but this was funny and definitely easier to read than french

Well I would just like to say thank you for the translation. I never knew google could do the translation thing. Now I know better.  I've been working on it since the weekend and maybe I can get some progress pics next weekend. I also apologize to you and Russ if my earlier comment offended. It was never meant to start a political war. I was just thanking everyone for their help, even if I couldn't read it. You don't need to know any language to read a picture...
