Unified Republik of Poland [Old Pre-Ragnablok Thread]

Any relation to the Polish stealth tank IRL?

Yes, of course. I wanted to integrate the PL-01 in my army, although there are clear differences between both tanks, especially regarding the stealth aspect:
- The IRL PL-01 is supposed to deliver direct fire support and the stealth aspect comes from eliminating the tank's infrared and radar signature.
- The Confederate Żmija (Serpent/Snake), however, possesses actual cloaking devices and is mostly designed for hit and run attacks. Thus, it got a lower hull and a smaller turret than the Smok Medium Tank, so it will be hard to hit, even when the cloaking device fails or the tank gets detected.

As for the actual stealth tank, I have no idea, if such a concept works IRL. Still, many people seem to be quite sceptical about it.

Wojownik (Warrior) - Heavy Gunship
Originally based on a civilian transport craft , the Wojownik has been improved by adding more armor and lots of guns, two laser cannons on each wing and two autocannons on it's front. With such an armament, this thing will fuck up any ground target and even some low altitude aircraft.

Nice. I didn't think this set could be used well for any military vehicle, but you proved me wrong.

[loafofcheese]

I think it would work better as a VTOL.

Słoń (Elephant) - Self-Propelled Heavy Artillery
In order to make up for the lack of heavy ordinance weaponry in the Confederate arsenal (and the arsenal of most intergalactical greater powers), the Polish ministry of defence decided to mount a Heavy OT Mortar on a truck, to deliver additional firepower. It might no be as durable as an artillery tank, but is cheaper and faster to produce.





I've decided to rework the design of the Smok to be wider, longer and lower, than it's predecessor. I've ditched the tracks in favor of a wheeled tread build, like the "Król Sobieski". Still WIP.


I've also planned to biuld a third Bocian from the Stunt Plane, I had left, although I have not the parts to build it in the same colours as the two other ones.

[Theblackdog]

You could just leave the fighter in those colors and say it belongs to an ace. I think the alternate color scheme is pretty cool.

I love these, especially the dropship... although I do wonder where its jet exhausts are. Regardless, it's quite an imposing design.

Another overview update is due:


(Also made some minor changes on existing units and Smok MK. III is still WIP)

Damn, that is one imposing overview. The Confederation of Polonia has truly established itself as a powerful force in the Brikverse.

[cleanupcrew]

I'd call it a superpower by STD and train.

Being one of the most effective and well-known combat vehicles in the Polish arsenal, the Archanioł Heavy Warwalker is constantly improved and upgraded by Polonia's finest engineers to keep up with other Greater powers. As of recently, it recieved an improvement, in it's armarment variety:


The OT Bolt Thrower can now be fitted with a long barrel, that combines all OT chuncks into one big burning rod , piercing through the thickest plates of armor. That add-on has been specially made to hunt down any mech or tank, that is bigger than the Archanioł, itself.


In order to increase melee capabilities, a giant BT Kopia has been developed, dealing massive damage to both, smaller and bigger targets alike.


Optionally, the spearhead can be wielded as a sword ...


... or fitted underneath a standard.

Like the standard you got there. Is it custom made speccifically for the mech or is it just a non-toy related item that you just stuck on there?

The standard pole is made from technic beams, while the banner is fabric with the paper Eagle glued on it. It actually turned out quite good.

The design of the final version mech is really impressive. I really like the smooth surface of it.

I would suggest to cover the knee and elbow ankles somehow because the hinges there are exposed. If this small problem is solved the mech will be perfect.

The banner looks impressive as well by beeing made of fabrik and huge. I think the banner itself should have an extra ability on the battlefield. For example an increase in skill roll or something because it can boost the morale of the polonian soldiers.

[Silverdream]

Very nice. I especially like the spear/sword.
