I realized that after I posted but I was too lazy to edit :oops:
I would reduce the size of the firing slit on the bunkers though, I have two stud high ones on mine so gun barrels can fit through but grenades can't. You don't want some attacker to clear an entire bunker by shoving a couple grenades in do you?

Unfortunatly the need to depress the angle of the guns dictates the need for a wider firing slit. I could re-do but it looks pretty good as is.

Couple of FELCian Guard Gravitic Arrest Bunker Arrays[GABAs] will clear that up no problem. Rebounds any incoming projectiles from one specified direction and gives ones coming from inside the array a bit of a boost. Gravity Propelled Grenade, anyone?

The FELC's still allied with Warhead at this time so that's a viable option, if it wasn't completely ridiculous and made up on the spot..

you could semi-multicolor it to save on bricks, (i.e. designs in the walls of a different color to make it look like it has been painted in a certain way, or something like that.)

Isn't the entire reason that we post stuff here is so other people can steal it?

I don't mind people using a design but it doesn't fit in.

Very un-original.
Exactly. Why not read Elmagnifico's description of the sword he wanted, I think it's pretty accurate to what he got.

Will the UPA or 45th Union be present at all?

Nope, sorry, but I can represent one enslaved/or volantary UPA Gladiator like everyone else's faction and you can control that unit and attempt to escape or whatever.

Exactly. "Luz" (light) is feminine. "Espada" (sword) is also feminine. Therefore, Santa instead of Santo.
Not to dig up an old debate here, but Santo Luz is, in fact, a boy sword, hence the male adjective. "Luz" is just part of the sword's name, and a noun besides, and therefore does not change gender.

Also, loving the sword, the battlements, the whole shebang here, Warhead! Too bad my conniving Irish half-cousins have already found your house and plan to steal the lot when you turn your back...
