Mechs and the big tank = win. The dropship needs a couple of rotating thrusters on the side to make it look more "dropship-y" -- at first I mistook it for a bunker. Overall, though I love it.

I like it, but I would like it more if you changed those Stormtroopers and other things that are straight-out-of-the-box built and mix it up a bit. Buy some different legs, heads, and helmets on Bricklink and it will make it so much cooler. Instead of people looking at it and saying "Oh look, an army of Stormtroopers" they'll look and say "Oh look, an army of bad-ass guys who killed Stromtroopers and took their breast-plates".

the army is a c+ and ships are a bit better but man do i want that AT-AT the army is a c+ because the storm troopers are mixed with half rate mercenaries or at lest i think thats what they are any one can get a storm trooper army and unless you have a ton of them or specialized stormy there is nothing amazing about a stormy army

nothing wrong with that. I use clone and storm troopers in my armies.

Something I did to make em all look a little different though is just switching around helmets, chest pieces, and legs to make individual soldiers. You've got a scout trooper wearing a storm trooper helmet and clone trooper legs, while the storm trooper's got scout trooper stuff. and that clone's got stormtrooper gear. Alone, they still look more or less the same, but in big groups the differences are subtle enough that it really makes them pop.

Im planing on buying more armor for the from brickforge to make ranks like blue pauldrons for corporals then white for privates. Sergeants get TLC Samurai armor. Captains get Gray segmented pauldrons. and so on i am working on making them more individual. more to follow
