Order of the Equinox (new ship!)

Post by BrickSyd » Wed Feb 10, 2010 10:56 pm

I finally got better pictures of my army. so here they are again
Their number increased a little since the initial post.

The Order of the Equinox, a faction that really like money and power related stuff, are from the planet Noxar. Noxar is not really their homeworld since they invaded it but still, they call it "home". Here you can see the Honorable Karl Kashnick, ruler of Noxar. The minifig on the left is Kashnick heroic first Officer which is currently equipping a 66-pistol and a portable shield generator.
Image


An Order of the Equinox base on Noxar which include a security station leading to living quarters. There is also a repair bay and a crew to operate it. Two landing pads are present.
Image


A quick view inside the base.
Image


The Infantry section wear light armor and is made of two groups. Two squad leaders are in charge of each group. The assault squad is made of five man that use submachine guns. SMG are not that good in combat but they are great for mass production.
Image


The second squad is a six man one. They use pulse cannons that stun targets instead of killing them. This as proven to be the more productive way to recruit new soldiers. Of course some brainwashing is required but it's still a very inexpensive method.

Pulse cannon and SMG close-up.
Image


The Demo Heavy Troopers are deployed to support the Assault squad. They use mostly rocket launcher and heavy explosive. DHT wear heavy armor that tend to slow them down.
Image


The Tactital Heavy Trooper are deployed to support the Recruitment squad. They carry assault rifle, tranquillizer dart, scope and shock injection.
Image


The Medic Squad can provide most medical treatments on the field allowing some lucky minifig to be beaten again.
Image


The Order of the Equinox use a small fleet to move between their different bases and to other planets. They have trained a number of pilots to maneuver their ships. Theses pilots receive a full training that teach them everything from planet surface movement to intergalactic maneuvering as well as the use of force if necessary.

One of their ship, NSS Fearless (NSS NF-I). A complete description of this ship can be found here: http://www.brikwars.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4094

NSS Challenger (NSS NF-IV).
Image


NSS Justicar (NSS Eagle-IV).

That was it! I hope you liked it

That base would be the location of an insane forum battle, as it is AWESOME. Oh, and the rest of the stuff is AWESOME. Did I mention this is AWESOME.

Yep, as mentioned before every army should have its own base. The weapons you built are awesome AND you made some good quality pictures!
I hope you have someone to play against.

Why can't I have an army this detailed?

Oh, that's right, I don't have a million dollars to spend on myself like that. But still, awesomeness!

Why is it Equinox though? Just wondrin'.

Nice weapons. The rocket launcher in particular is pure win.
The troops themselves are nicely done without seeming overly expensive or hard to acquire. I like your use of trans blue visors.

The vehicles are pretty cool, but Eagle-1 looks like the back half of an even more awesome ship. If you replaced the big front window with a sleek nose section it would be amazingly cool. Maybe you could replace the window with a docking port to let the white escort ship dock with the front?

Thanks for the comments! Unfortunately, I'm still looking for opponents. Maybe I'll try to make a forum battle some day.

About the name, I just liked how it sounded.

Interesting but I would have to redesign the interior too because at this time, the controls are behind the front window but most of my fleet have some docking capability.The escort class consist of a small fighter locked on a specific module. Escort-11 and Escort-44 are both locked on cargo modules but I have more ships with different configurations. Some prototypes of modules that could be loaded on an Eagle have been produced but R&D have a lot of work to do before those kind of modules can be seen on the field.

This is an Overwatch of the ship interior. You can also see a prototype module loaded on Eagle-4.

The Order of the Equinox fleet has been updated!

After the lost of their flagship the Justicar, the Order of the Equinox acquired the Noxarien Spaceship Conqueror (NSS EE-IV).

One of the compartment hold water and air supply for basic survival needs. This picture also provide a better view of the laser gun mounted in front of the engine.

A view of the interior. The Conqueror can carry up to 18 passenger and have a lot of space for weapons and equipment.

There is an airlock between the main deck and the cargo bay that reveal additional storage.

1 First officer (hero)

Friggin. Awesome. I love the way your ships all look like they belong to the same fleet.

New challenge! BrickSyd and Natalya battle to the death to determine the ultimate fleet builder!

I love how roomy you make these ships! The shapes of the noses on the two smaller ones are so good, too. Great job.
