[Silent-sigfig]

The United Systems Alliance



Diplomat
Main Battle tank



The latest in the Diplomat family, the M1A6 possesses intimidating firepower.





























Design notes: I really wanted this iteration of the Diplomat to have 2 things: A sloped turret and more play features. I'm particularly proud of the turret on this one.

Statesman
Infantry Fighting Vehicle



The little brother of the Diplomat trades armor and firepower for transport capacity.













Design notes: This is one of the two vehicles that I did not disassemble (thus the old pictures). There have been minor changes: There is a new targeting panel in the interior and the missile pod currently isn't attached.

Ambassador
Attack VTOL



With enough firepower to start and end a small war, helicopters don't get more intimidating than the Ambassador.









Design notes: When I started to redesign the ambassador, the only thing I knew was that it would be able to fit two pilots in an opening cockpit.

Consul
Strike Fighter



The small size and vtol capabilities of the next-generation of Consul fighters greatly expands its versatility.











Design note: I liked the last version of the Consul--I just wanted to build more.

Chief
Light VTOL



With heavy firepower and a snazzy paint job to match, the Chief should not be underestimated.





Design note: An alternative stub on the side could hold some figs.

Messenger
MRAP



Mine-Resistant. Armor-Plated. Super-Stylish.











Design note: I wanted 2 things: An opening hood, and to change the frond windows to the ones currently used.

Envoy
Internally Transported Vehicle



Small enough to be transported in a Dropship, fast enough to be worth carrying.









Design notes: I think this one is much better built than the previous one. Also, I designed the trailer after seeing War for The Planet of The Apes.

[BriksKrieg]

These are cool!

The Celestial Kingdom



Iron Mountain
Heavy Assault Walker



The ability to carry two plasma cannons across any terrain makes the Iron Mountain quite the threat.







Design notes: The legs a re much more stable than on the old Dragon Lance

Brazen Sparrow
Light VTOL



Simple and small, the Brazen Sparrow is better suited to policing and scouting that open battle







Design note: Both this and the Iron Mountain fit pilots, but they do not open up at all.

War Bear
Hardsuit



The War Bear is an armored exoskeleton given to the Kingdom's Blademasters.







Design note: I like giving my factions multiples of one vehicle. For this one, it was designed for the Hundred Piece Hullabaloo, so making multiples wasn't that difficult.

Oh wow! That United Systems Alliance tank is gorgeous. Im always a sucker for a good tank. The turret especially.

[RedRover]

Everything here is too knotch, though I do miss the CK Dragon Lance

[TheCraigfulOne]

Cool stuff.   Infantry photos?

[Silent-sigfig]

Eldorria



Infantry



El Capitan, the brave hero.



Fusiliers (Commandos) and a Scout



Marines

Diablo
Light Support Drone





Design note: I had the idea of using the baskets in such a way for a while. Otherwise, it is a cheap, simple build.

[Zupponn]

I like the Diablo.  Has that derpy steampunky look to it.

[sahasrahla]

i like how all the mails have little purses on their belts. lol

[Omega Prime]

The diablo looks so flimsy it's funny. Are the barrel bits actually supposed to be wood? If so, then their greatest enemy would be wood-eating grubs and woodpeckers. Just imagine that.

Totally missed your Diplomat update - looks excellent!
Would you mind if I gave the Diplomat a formal wiki page? It rather deserves one after these years of service

A little late, but go for it!

Disassembly and photography, part 1:

Immortal Empire:

[Cakeman]

Nice! Efficient colourscheme, good shaping. I liked the hoverbike and dropship the most, and also the assorted accessories. Could we have an arranged picture with everything in it, like a snapshot from a busy base?
