First, my new hover tank, which I've codenamed Flanker. If you're interested, it has four Mk.II guns (two in the turret and two on the sides) and six inches of missile payload. Gallery and pseudoscientific explanation of the hover system for IVhorseman to poke holes in may be found here. The T.L.A. is a new faction which I created to mock all of the "factions" being created, and taken way too seriously, by some of Mocpages' younger builders.

Second, the ships from the Jovian Defense Force are online, but under T.L.A. names. Gallery is here. Happy building!

I think I even said in that thread that I'm all for hover tanks.

That use of Technic pieces is brilliant.

Thanks. Crew capacity is one minifig in the front cockpit. The tank moves so fast that only computers can aim the turret guns with any sort of accuracy. On a more practical level, this thing needs a LOT of interior structure. Someday when I recover from building this I'll open it up and show you the crazy stuff I had to do to get that hinge between the body and nose built correctly.

I remember that one thread where we argued for weeks about what was the most efficient and feasible propulsion/generator system for a hovertank.

Sweet MOCs.
I think those stats only apply to non-Mexicans.
