Al-Kind-of was in need of a new armoured support vehicle and they went to the private tech firm Magnus to get the job done. they jointly created a vehicle that would meet Al-Kind-of's needs on all fronts. The result was the Stormshock LAV, a vehicle so capable that the term "LAV" is relly pushing it.

Name: Magnus Stormshock LAV
Armour: 100 mm Aluminum Tungsten Composite
Crew: 2 (Driver, Gunner)
Top Speed: 80 km/h
Weapons:
1x Magnus Armour-Piercing Heavy Autocannon
1x Magnus Autocannon
3x Compressed Air-Launched Fragmentation Grenades
1x Magnus smoke Grenade Launcher (2 Smoke Grenades)
1x Magnus Box-Fed Machine Gun


Image

While the Stormshock's main gun is nothing compared to other armoured vehicle's, it can run circles around them while firing constantly thanks to Magnus's Autocannon technologyk, perfect for Al-Kind-of's guerilla warfare

Image

The 3 Air-launched Frag Grenades really help support troops in a full on combat situation.

Image

The crew is slightly cramped, the gunner sitting sideways, but the ppoint is fast attack, not comfort.

The Stormshock LAV is able to fire where you need it and if its not close enough, then to get it there quick.

From my week-long buildathon I also made a jeep, improved a fighter and finished a robotic tank (all to be posted tomorrow.)

This is one kickass tank, anti-infantry weapons out the wazoo!

Will this be included in 3xl? :D

What do you mean, 'where are my orders?' :roll:

Wow, thats great! The Armory is receiving a truck load of awesome from Cpt. Zipps! :D

I really like this thing, mainly the frontal anti-landmines thing. Also, many interesting guns. Nice going

I have to say, out of the two tanks, this one takes the biscuit - it looks fucking viscous . . . and I would not like to be on the receiving end of this fucker.

Well done sir, additional kudos points earned - you are well on your way to +1 internets.

I will post the matching jeep that makes use of the Autocannon, smoke grenades and frag grenade launchers.

Simply wonderful, you are amazing us with these new units of yours. I bought a load of tan briks for RoC's 45th Union vehicles but didn't like just tan so tan and dark grey is the way to go.

Love the color scheme and the tank itself is one of the best I have seen on this forum.

Why was I not made aware of the awesomeness of this tank earlier!

Great work on the tank though I think this army needs a helicopter
