It depends on rounding decimals to some extent; he seems to be rounding up rather than down.

Speaking of the stat card, it's kind of awkward to call it a "carbine" and a "rifle" simultaneously...

- SCYTHIAN PROTOTYPE SKUNKYARDS -

- MANTOROK SYSTEM - CO-ORDINATES [DATA EXPUNGED] -

- COCKROACH PROTOTYPE URBAN SUPPORT VEHICLE -


Image

Designed to compliment Scythian marines and Black Widow IFV's in tight urban conditions - the Cockroach is a one pilot high-speed suppression unit.

Making use of an anti-matter generator on-par with that of the Tarantula MBT and a new wheel/leg actuator system, the Cockroach is capable of extreme speeds and maneuvers to bring its main guns to bear.

Its thick front Armour is designed to take extreme damage before faulting - while the Cockroach lays down extreme firepower from its front mounted Laser Gatling cannon and its turret mounted Laser cannon.

Image

The rear view of the Cockroach - showing the shorter leg design and placement, as well as the Antimatter generator.

Image

A cut away view of the Cockroach - it is just large enough for a single minifig pilot within, who would climb in the front - and then the Armour would fold downwards into place.

- - -

As for the Laser Carbine Rifle - I may choose to name them LCR's in future - but it is a carbine version of a rifle, so I'm keeping it. :P

On the subject of the UR of two an the +1 skill - the general idea is that the troops are well trained but expensive, and their weapons are idiot proof, so the only things that could go wrong would result from rolling a critical fail.

I have a few more things up my sleeve before too long, so stay tuned and as always, comments an criticism would be appreciated.

Neat design but... an antimatter generator with no armor plating? The first time one of those things gets taken out, it's going to take the entire battlefield with it. Good incentive not to shoot them I suppose...

I like this. I can see how in an urbin setting one of these combined with some troops would make for a great patrol or assault force.

Yeah, she's right. Is nothing like D7. Don't think that's what he was trying for either. It's in keeping with the other ships of this race is all.

- SCYTHIAN PROTOTYPE SKUNKYARDS -

- MANTOROK SYSTEM - CO-ORDINATES [DATA EXPUNGED] -

-PROTOTYPE/WORK IN PROGRESS UPDATES -

- FILE 1 OF 3 - MAMMOTH CLASS ASSAULT WALKER -


The Mammoth class assault walker is a stand in between the Orpheus SHDT (Super Hover Death Tank) and the Behemoth CSW (Command Super Walker) and is designed to compliment both in the battlefield - either as a heavy support unit for Orpheus formations, or as part of an escort group for Behemoths as they lead entire armys on a planet wide basis. It utilises the same Anti-matter system as its bigger brother, but is more focused onto firepower than as a command and control platform.

Image
(The Mammoth on its own)

Image
(The Mammoth against its bigger brother, the Behemoth)

It's primary weapons consist of two SHIP class mounted super-lasers and and a 30 stud long dual mounted Anti-matter projector - the very latest in Scythian weapon design, and thier first true innovation in over 250 years.

Image
(A view of the two weapon control stations and the primary cockpit)

The core basis of Scythian technology was taken from an ancient super-dreadnaught class SHIP that had crashed into the side Blade, the second moon of Scythia (their homeworld). Since then - thier design ethics have been based around continious miniaturisation and improvement of existing technologies - rather than wasting the effort in creating anything new. This is why Scythian Anti-matter generation systems are the most advanced in this (or perhaps any) galaxy, thier laser weaponry so efficient, thier robotics technology is a light year ahead of anything thier closest competetors can bring to bear - but with the Immortals bringing an entire galaxy of hurt to thier doorstep, it has been shown that simply improving what they already had was no longer sufficient, and so Scythian scientists and engineers set to work with scientists and engineers from the Gamma Corps, the HURT, United Systems Alliance and Genoan Republics in order to build an entirely new breed of weapon.

Image
(A view of the multiple Antimatter generators at work within the Mammoth)

The Antimatter projector is in effect - a railgun tied into the dump valve system of an Antimatter generator, the railgun elements project a tight magnetic cone at thier target, which is then filled with volatile Neutrinos in an exotic super-cooled mixture, which acts as a transmission medium for room temperature Lithium based Antimatter.

The effects of this are sudden and catastrophic, this weapon melts through anything known to brick kind in microseconds, shields are eaten away by massive power overloads, Armour is simply catalysed and melted, minifigs are incinerated instantly - and then once the entire target is catalysed, it then violently explodes with the equivalent force of a small nuclear blast - only serving to spread the destruction as the blast destroys surrounding targets and then showers the survivors in deadly Neutrinos and left over Antimatter particles.

Image
The Assyrians thought they knew the meaning of "Technological Arrogance"? They knew absolutely nothing . . . nothing at all.

- FILE 2 OF 3 - UPDATES TO "ORPHEUS" SUPER HOVER DEATH TANK WORK IN PROGRESS -

Still a work in progress, the Orpheus has been going through two new design stages with Scythian AI's working day and night at improving the design, by including the newly developed Antimatter Projector into a dual turreted mount and re-working the Gatling laser turrets.

Image
(The first digital build of the Orpheus, still being constructed - with the Gatling lasers mounted in two rows of four in large sub-turrets)

Image
(A re-build of the digital version of the Orpheus, with the turrets now moved forward and more in line with LCR style designs, and the Antimatter Projectors installed. Note the infantry load/unload door in each side and the rear of the SHDT)

- FILE 3 OF 3 - RIGEL KENTAURUS SHIP WORK IN PROGRESS -

With recent updates - the older style of Scythian SHIP's have been forced out of service in favour of newer, more advanced designs - one of the most advanced being the Rigel Kentaurus class destroyer - named after the Rigel Kentaurus shipyards with funding and research aided by [DATA EXPUNGED] it is proving to be one of the most deadly Scythian warships ever designed.

Unfortunatly - it is still in the design phases - with only the barest bones of its super structure in the stages on completion.

Excellent updates scythe, but I noticed something, it is very likely that some pesky infantry can try and sneak their way under your walkers. Have you ever thought of mounting small caliber weapons on the legs or other weak spots?
