BMP-88

The backbone of the 45 Union's mechanized infantry. Capable of carrying a 6 man squad. This fully NBC (Nuclear, Biological & Chemical) protected carrier can take them through any environment and against most hostile threats. It's automated turret is armed from flamethrowers for dispatching enemy bunkers to missiles to take out anything bigger than itself.

This was my first effort trying for a BMP, hope I did it justice. And I didn't give it a nickname on purpose, for some weird reason, whatever I gave it didn't feel right.

*The cannon cover I used was taken from Natalya's idea.

Very nice would be better if it ran over a few Peach heads but i guess you can't get ever thing.

I love your entire army.

Do you have stats for things? How about another army a small force of these guys can scrimmage against?

Sorry no stats yet, I still need to do them for all my vehicles. I'm still working on my Main Battle Tank. I'm going to post my old one soon before I scrap her. I'm actually going to start working on an unit for my army to fight with, it's going to be a fair size unit.

Yea. All of the PRA that I have so far I just put stats to last night. It's around 350CP without the Ursa because I scrapped it.

So the cannon rotates and everything?

Post by **RoC77** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 7:35 pm

Yup, rotates, elevates, & 360 degree clear line of fire.

Why did you scrap your Ursa? You going to show us something new soon?

Eh, not soon, maybe in some time. I just didn't like the way the minifigs fit inside and the cannon looked kind of tacked on there. I tried again, but it just wasn't working. I just don't have enough pieces to make something big that doesn't look all raggety.

I will have some more stuff for them though. I would like to build a couple more Kommondors and another Badger as well as a transport or two, but that's dreaming.

Nah, the PRA doesn't have anything alien-like in the... Setting is what you could call it I guess. Post genetic apocalypse in 2013 and a small group of people doesn't have much room for aeroplanes.

Yea, I guess I did?

Hahaha, still have no idea what you're talking about then.

I don't get it either.

But RoC77 will.

A fine addition to the already-grand army of you.
