Really Exceptionally Deadly. I made the people mower first.

Image
The full crew of the RED militia together, with their vehicles in the background. I need to make a vehicle for the guy in the middle sometime. Maybe a sort of hardsuit?

Image
The People Mower. The plow on the front is so bits of people don't get stuck in the front wheel, and plus it looks awesome. Victims are either cut to pieces by the giant blade or squashed by the rear tires.

Image
Rear view. Ignore the dust, I left it on a shelf for a few minutes and the shelf was really dusty.

Image
The controls are pretty basic, with just a steering wheel and a throttle thingy.

Image
Underside. Here you can see that it does, in fact, have a front wheel.

Image
The second-to-last thing you see before you die. The last thing you see is blood. Everywhere. :twisted:

Image
The PlaneCopter. I need a better name for this. Well anyways, it's basically the front end of a car welded on to the tail of a plane, with giant prop engines on the sides. Also helicopter skids. And guns.

Image
Rear view.

Image
The cockpit just has a comfy chair and two joysticks. And a tiny windshield, mustn't forget that.

Image
VTOL!

Image
:csi: Robotic Raptor! Large, very sharp claws on hands, feet, and tail, jump jets, and spikes on the shoulders.
Not sure if this actually belongs in the RED militia, it just has a similar color scheme.

Image
:silva: They aren't spikes, they're guns!

I see these guys as a communist force(because of the name and colour mostly, but also because of the vehicles(they look like cheap yet effective soviet vehicles).

@Silverdream: Sure, why not! When I was making them, I kind of saw them as rednecks, though. Maybe Russian rednecks?

@Colette: Yes, yes, but I don't have either of those. Does it matter?

No, but when people post people mowers I think of them. I own the Power Miners one and used it in a forum battle. It only mowed two people but those were probably my most satisfying brikwars kills ever.

I actually scrapped my Indiana Jones people mower for parts (mainly treads) to build my RIN tanks. Now to find a use for those sawblades... :twisted:

It's a bit too crude for advanced star empires, though.

If I get to work on a spider tank, I'll make sure to incorporate some saws though.

Also,

Perhaps Red Georgians? I've always thought that Georgia was the European equivalent to Texas.

And those sets are all war crimes. Keep up the good work. :twisted:

Well the middle guy reminds me of the Steam Engineer guy the used in some of the old LDD starter models, so maybe something like this:

It also comes in red:

I sorta tried it with the Death Bikes, but I'm up for it. Some sort of arms race for the "lesser" builders.

Back to your force, red as always given a distinctive character to pretty much everything IMO, and you used it well on these dudes. The People Mower is :666: But what's with the blue guy anyways?

I had him, and didn't know where else to put him. He's named Crazy McPhee.

If you want a new name, come up with a cool word and I'll make a name out of it.
Everyone knows you make the name out of the acronym and not the other way around.
