Damn son, these are really excellent. You really captured Warhead's essence with these, while using your own original ideas and building style.

Dammit Colette, I literally finished that damn book yesterday and know you're giving me flashbacks. :fist:

Great work on everything though!

I like the Immortal vehicle shaping but please give them some sort of accent colour (maybe white but preferably orange). Looking at an all black block can be quite irritating at times.

Very sexy. I like the red ring motif a lot.

United Systems Alliance

Image
Freedom* and demockracy** for all***.

Image

Image
USA super-soldier Captain Murica serves as an inspirational role model and war hero to the troops, wielding a shield enchanted with PATRIOTISM and riding a motorcycle into battle.

Image
Standard USA troops led by a Red Beret. The USA hasn't levied a draft in several decades, resulting in a military force filled entirely with the most hardcore, diehard 'Murican patriot volunteers.

Image
A USA recon drone being controlled by a soldier. Lightly armed with a small machine gun, its main purpose is to scout out enemy positions.

Image
A USA hardsuit, for wielding big weapons and lifting objects too heavy for infantrymen. This design was mostly taken from Silent-sigfig.

Image
The USA Attaché mech is a complement to the existing Emancipator platforms, designed for infantry support and anti-vehicle roles.

Image
Its guns can rotate up and down to switch between infantry and aircraft. It also mounts missiles as additional armament.

Image
The Attaché also has a grappling hook (as opposed to a slash harken, because the USA military is not full of weebs), for pulling down statues of dictators and other purposes.

Image
It also has a pair of jump-jets in the backs of its legs, for short hops across impassable terrain.

Image
The USA Commissioner hover-tank. Although it never did end up replacing the Diplomat, the latter receiving several upgrades instead, several Commissioners are still around within the USA armed forces.

Image
The rear, with a hatch to the interior. Clips on the rear of the turret allow for interchangeable modules, such as an antenna or a missile pod.

Image
The turret can seat minifigs, who can man the mounted machine guns. The main gun can also move up and down, but IRL it's really fragile so I usually don't.

Image
View of the hover engines underneath the armor skirt.

Image
The USA Counsellor transport helicopter is designed to deploy and extract troops from the battlefield.

Image
Side view.

Image
The front and cockpit. Armament is light with only two machine guns, so usually an airstrike is called in to soften the landing zone first.

Image
The interior has room to seat 5 standard USA troops.

Image
The dual tiltrotors can swivel and move around for enhanced maneuverability and allow the Counsellor to turn on a dime.

Image
The F-61 Demarché-class fighter-bomber is one of the biggest and heaviest fighters in the USA. These big boys are usually called in during airstrikes and can level good portions of cities in a bombing run.

Image
A closer view of the cockpit with the pilot.

Image
The Demarche mounts big engines to maintain an amazing speed for its size, both in atmosphere and in space.

Image
It carries an impressive array of missiles and guns, including size-4 Peacekeeper missiles and several strafing guns that wouldn't be out of place on a tank.

Really dig the high-tek hover-stuff feeling on the immortal vehicles.

M-Throne Empire

Image
Whatever greater good the M-Throne Empire mysteriously pursues, its intergalactic army might be practically speaking the greatest "good" the BrikVerse has ever seen.

Image
Once an extragalactic curiosity, small detachments of M-Throne troops are now an increasingly common sight throughout the Nehellenium Galaxy, for better or worse.

VoL

Image
As the rest of the galaxy slowly traded in their armor for suits, their weapons for money, and their wars for diplomacy, the VoL nevertheless persisted.

Image
The VoL are among the few pure warrior cultures left in the BrikVerse, a fact in which they take great pride. Viewing the rest of the galaxy as having betrayed their true minifig roots, the VoL continue to raid and pillage their neighbors as they have for hundreds if not thousands of G.R.'s. A largely decentralized faction with little notion of diplomacy or economy, most of the major developed superpowers choose to ignore them, except for occasionally condemning their raids at AN meetings that the VoL almost never attend.

Image
Each VoL warrior fights with the strength of 10 minifigs, a fact they credit to their harsh upbringing, emphasis on martial skill, and training since birth. These particular warriors wear the sigil of their king, a scorpion.

Image
King Sigmund, the leader of this particular band of VoL, is said to be a little mad owing to his past as a berserker prince. He relishes the feel of cutting his enemies open with his OTCs and bare hands so much that he relegated ranged weapons to robot arms on his armor.

The little cockpit details are great inside the USA fighter
