If the M-Tron pieces ever become hard to find online I will probably purchase plain red torsos and use stickers to make more :)

I have really lots of spare torsos and accessories. I would be happier If you use them in your stories and battles but thank you for your interest.

Wow...Just...Wow...
This has to be the biggest Brik army I've ever seen assembled.
You have motivated me to begin straying from just building a straight-up SW army.
This is the coolest! :omnom:

You should have a battle with all your friends defending a fort with their armies and you attacking with this lot, then take pics.

Spotted a hidden M-Throne reference today:



Obvious bootleg M-Throne Assault Mech. Gundam 00 is totally ripping you off!

With all the emphasis on the M-Throne, I kind of wish there was a moc of the Emperor's throne itself. Preferably M-shaped.

I'd imagine it'd be a huge M-Shaped tank throne, maybe city sized so the throne of the emperor could also serve as the capitol city.
The only unflawed system is Lego System.

Nice catch of phrase on that mech packaging :)
I am plannig o build a imperial palace / throne room for M-Throne where I can put the throne of the Emperor. The throne will be golden and it will be large but I don't know how to shape it like the letter "M"

The capitol planet is "Planet M-Throne" itself. The planet supposed to be a megacity like Coruscant from Star Wars.

I imagine you could just use regular rectangular bricks at a 45 degree angle, serving as flanking elements to the throne itself.

In my homebrew M-Tron faction back in the 90s or whenever it was, the M was two giant volcanoes behind the capital city, that supplied the magma for the industrial furnaces.

I'll do my best to build a proper throne for the Emperor ;)
First I got to take new Overwatch photos.

Some fresh photo updates for the army. 1120 regular troopers on baseplates together in the photo. I also use this as my flickr cover photo for now.

At the time when I took that photo I got only 400 regular soldiers. :).

I have only one open personel carrier and 2 armored carrıers (on the rıght upper corner). Maybe I need more flying and land transports to make the army more "realistic". They could simply "walk" to to battlefıeld like WWI. Also Hyperıon could transport more than 60 in its cargo bay.
To be honest, each squad of two fire teams (10 men) should have a IFV, or an infantry fighting vehicle, and that IFV should be light enough to be...yapyapyapyapyapyap
Jesus hard ass over here.

I gotta say though, I love ya Kaplan. You took this guy's critism, and actually went and built stuff to get supplies to the front line, and a small main battle tank, etc. You're awesome

Thank you. Critics are always welcome of course because I try to make my army better as I could. I built 11 tanks, 2 flying troop transports and 3 trucks for the purpose of mechanization of the army but It is still not possible for me to build a IFV for every 10 soldiers which means building around 100 additional vehicles. :)
