Mister Monkey Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Fair enough then...... going with Panzer III's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Dunno. It'll be a while before I do much with tanks, honestly. But it'd depend on what I was aiming for. Panzer III's would be great for Leman Russes, though. Maus for a basilisk or a medusa. Panzer IIs for Hydras? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Maus is going to be pretty big...... probably more a shadowsword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Hm. Fair enough. Don't know armor all that well, honestly. Planes were my thing to study as a kid, lol. As an adult, I've studied armies, not the individual components as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The Maus had only a couple of prototypes made, they were so big they could not actually cross bridges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 ... Gotta love the German engineering process for armor... why would you make something that big... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 You should see the plans for the Ratte....... it had the same turret they mount on ships!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Monkey Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah some of the last ideas they had were a little off the wall...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 No kidding. Sheesh. Still, I suppose I shouldn't be allowed to give my perspective on engineering too much, lol. I'm a fan of battlecruisers as a concept and good lord aren't those a bad idea... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Oh, not too bad. How are you, Steam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 In need of a weekend. But I did at least finish that Elizabeth Moon book last night. How's things with you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Not too bad. Also in need of a weekend. Picked up a hardcopy of Words of Radiance and Elantris last night. This book is fething huge. o.o The story is 1080 pages. Absolutely insane. How was the Elizabeth Moon book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Good, I wonder how many are in that series as that was book 4. Seems like Guild Ball has stalled but it's more than met the target goal so all is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I'm hoping it picks up momentum, I really want Mist and Gutter, but sadly those are at the end of the pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Would be nice. It's a shame non-US ones always do so badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Part of it is the conversion price, sadly enough. Chipping in for three resin teams, rules and an influence token set to be shipped here is 153 pounds. That works out to about $255 at current rates. Not that it's any less expensive for you, admittedly, but that sticker shock still does a lot of damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah, I've not backed some US ones due to shipping costs and fear of any customs added on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
