VASS - The Victorious Adygean Star Soldiery

Post by Sir Sporktimus » Wed May 20, 2015 6:41 pm

Adygea is but one of many thousands of planets united under the banner of the USSSR. However, as Adygea lies on the back side of the space republic, and its forces and firepower cannot be deployed towards the main body of the Nehellenium without great expense in transport across the entire USSSR, Adygea and many other planets have been given a different directive - to monitor, maintain, and if necessary, pacify the countless fringe worlds who drift across the edge of the republic.
Although there are thousands of larger planetoids whose technology has begun to reach threat levels, one retains Adygea's attention in particular. The Royal Azure Imperium, a burgeoning empire whose attempts to achieve interstellar travel have kept it on Adygea's lists for some time now, has only become more of a target as their dealings with the offworld Blue Heliad Sciences Corporation become more and more frequent. Now, the time has come to bring Azure and other worlds back to the primeval status it retained for a thousand years, and to stop Blue Heliad from ever meddling in the fringe worlds again.

Image

In order to begin this operation, a new model of Military Walker has been employed; the VASS-1 Iron Razor. This towering monstrosity, utilizing both Green Transparent and Red Transparent it its weaponry, is a force to be reckoned with.

Image

Constructed with two spinning razor blades, one of which is powered by GT, and a Mark II RT Cannon, the Iron Razor tramples all in its path, and ensures victory and glory for Adygea.

I'm in the process of building twin mechs with the same cockpit but in BT. Great work!

Nice mix of bricks and CCBS parts. Also like the use of GT. Do you plan to add more vehicles or maybe infantry?

Indeed! Those were just all I had at the moment, but more units will be on the way. I intend to get a Blue Heliad vs. Adygea forum battle running sometime soon; maybe in a few weeks. I'll most likely set the stage with a Magic Soap or two first, though.

And yeah, the builds themselves are a little heavy on the bionicle pieces for my taste, but doing larger mechs without them can be tricky without the right parts. Even the Daedalus has a skeleton made of those Hero Factory bones. The rest of Adygea will definitely be heavier on the traditional bricks. And I know it's a different color scheme than the USSSR things you've been working on, but I think it's a big enough empire that different countries probably have some variance. Looking forward to seeing the Intermarium Coalition's progression.

I also have a faction for the coalition to fight that I have been working on. They are more of a space Piltogg theme which may or may not be a good fit

Transmission Incoming

Origin: VASS HQ, Adygea, USSSR
Destination: Central Military Command HQ, Tsarvia, USSSR

Accept Transmission:
Image

"This is Admiral Ignatov Borgadef of the Victorious Adygean Star Soldiery, reporting in as scheduled. Good evening, commander. Six months ago, you announced to Adygea and several other nations within the USSSR that those who could prove their worth as a military power would rise to become part of the USSSR's mighty star army, while those who failed would be forced to economy and labor. The very idea of this shames Adygean pride, and so we have assembled this demonstration of the Victorious Adygean Star Soldiery's might."

Image

"Joining me for this production is VASS Colonel General Kilalov Demded, who has kept the fringe worlds under control for several years now. General, show me what you have created."

"It would be my pleasure, Admiral Borgadef."

Image

"Here we have a variety of VASS soldiers. On the right you will find the Privates, equipped with chainblades and barbed shields. To the left are the Efreitors, with laser cannons or alternatively the mobile artillery suit. These troops form the body of our ground forces. Now, if you would accompany me."

Image

"This VASS-2 Bystro is a wheel bike designed primarily for scouting purposes. While not particularly durable, it moves with remarkable speed and its single-wheel design eliminates turn penalties for better maneuverability. It also carries a Mark III laser cannon so that, in a pinch, it can still deal significant damage."

Image

"The VASS-3 Palemask, on the other hand, serves as a perfect balance between speed and firepower. On its relatively small chassis are mounted a large cutlass and claw attachment, along with a pair of Mark II Spectral Cannons. However, the weaponry can be easily exchanged for specialized equipment to make the Palemask suitable in any situation."

Image

"We found, then, that our army was still lacking in flying vehicles, and to this purpose we designed the VASS-4 Fearsparrow. Its small size allows for tremendously swift movement, while being quite deadly in combat with a pair of Mark II cannons. The Fearsparrow is heavily armored, ensuring that it cannot be brought down with any ease by the enemy."

Image

"It is with great pride that we present the centerpiece of the Adygean army: the VASS-5 Thunder Pig. Our engineers strove to load a relatively small armored vehicle with as many lasers as could fit, and this was the breathtaking result. The Thunder Pig has been created with the intention of taking out even the largest of targets in one or two devastating hits from its Mark V Thunderdrums, but it also carries twin mortar launchers for routing enemy fortifications, and double machine guns for the elimination of ground forces. It is truly the most beautiful of our death-reaping creations."

Image

"But we have decided to save the largest for last. These VASS-1 Iron Razors fulfill a crucial role in any star army, which is to crush the enemy underfoot in the most literal fashion possible. Not only this, but the Razors carry large razor blades capable of ripping apart lesser vehicles, and Mark II lasercannons for the targets yet out of range."

Image

"Thank you for this demonstration, General Demded."

"It has been my pleasure, Admiral Borgadef."

Image

"And it is with this transmission, commander, that we hope Adygea rises to join the might of our glorious USSSR in victorious combat! May our flag fly over all Nehellenium, and our empire live on forever."

End Transmission

I kinda like the rather unconventional style of the Thunder Pig and the Bystro. Very creative.

Cool stuff. Looks like they do some dealings with the ZMC.

TheSovietNinjaWaffle would like to bring his army of rage-induced Bionic Commies to avenge the death of Super Josef.

I also translated the first two paragraphs into Russian. I toiled for 7 days and nights, waiting for my damn internet to load. Here is glory:

Адыгея является лишь одним из многих тысяч планет, объединенных под знаменем USSSR. Однако, как Адыгея лежит на задней стороне пространства республики, и его силы и огневой не может быть развернут в сторону основного корпуса Nehellenium без больших затрат при транспортировке по всей USSSR, Адыгея и многие другие планеты были даны другой директиву - контролировать, поддерживать и, если необходимо, успокоить бесчисленные миры, которые бахромой дрейф по краю республики.
Хотя существуют тысячи крупных планет, технология которых начался достичь уровня угрозы, один сохраняет внимание в Адыгее частности. Королевский Лазурный Империум, бурно империя чьи попытки добиться межзвездные путешествия сохранили его в списках Адыгея в течение некоторого времени теперь, только стало больше цели, как их дела с offworld Голубой Heliad Sciences Corporation становится все более и более частыми. Теперь, пришло время, чтобы привести Azure и другие миры обратно в первобытном состоянии она сохраняется в течение тысячи лет, и, чтобы остановить синий Heliad из когда-либо вмешательство в бахромой миров снова
