VOID VEHICLE STATS FOR UWZ - HELP!
« on: December 30, 2007, 05:24:21 PM »
Hey all--

just picked up some nice painted void vehicles and was looking for UWZ stat suggestions as well as ideas as to which army you all think they'd best be suited for (you know to use in scenarios and non-official type play).

I have--

The Vasa Riot Control Ronin

The Tak MK III which has a changeable missle launcher turret and gatling gun type turret

I also have a whole mess of (6) Kryomek Walkers with HMG's, LMG's and AC mixed - which look like heavy Start Wars At-At types.

Looking forward to your input

D

The Ronin would work for a Vermin APC for Imperial - I have the one with the chaingun I intend using. With six wheels its the closest representation I could find locally. Bear in mind that the actual model is pretty small to give a scale representation. Going to be the transport for my Rams.

The TAK could work as maybe a necromower proxy or Death Angel proxy I think.

Don't know about the Kryomeks - maybe stinger Hurricanes or Orcas?

 The Kryomek ones would be best used as Imperial Hurricane walkers.They may be too big for Orca's.The smaller Kryomek ones would make good Cybertronic additions(the Ed 209 types).

Yeah - Thing is I have a bunch of necromowers and Death angels, and orcas, etc.

Wanted to get creative and make some new ideas - esp. for a vehcile based scenario (kind of a battle for Endor type fight) I'm working on.

Occurs to me that the TAC could be a Cartel vehicle of some sort. Or possibly the Cybertronic robot scout tank - I cant remember what its called, had three wheels and a revolving gun turret in the Beasts of War booklet from Warzone 1st.

wzD: Let me sit down with a pen and my designers crap and I will look at setting up something balanced for you.  Knowing what they look lkike, it will help.

Initial looking has me thinking this...

tracked vehicle: Cybertronic TA 7500 series Light Assault/Support Tank
  *  Gatling turret would be mounted MG like Ed's
  * Missile Turrett would be like Scorpions's launcher BUT a max of 20 shots.  (I would not expect this tank to live that long, in any event)

Statline something like this... cc -/rc 10/Ac 3/Wds 4(2)/ Mv 5 / Armor 23 Size 4 with Impenitrability.  AI Level 4

  I'll take a stab at points in a bit... but I am betting it comes back at something around 85-90 for the Gun variant and about ten to fifteen more for the Missile

Walkers...  One on Left

Sung-Po Industries Tactical Walker Model 4 Golf  (guess points are about 110-120)
 *  Statline as Ronin but Wounds 5/3 Armor 23 Size 6 & Impenitrability
 *  Weapons are two Kensai Lmgs (one per side arc) and twin mounted Dragonstorm out the front
 *  Crew of Three (driver/gunner/ Commander)

Middle Walker...

Sung-Po/Tambu Industries Siege Walker Model 2 Charlie (guess points are about 100-115)
 *  Statline as Ronin but Wounds 5/3 Armor 24 Size 6 & Impenitrability
 *  Weapons are mounted twin Dragonfang Cannon
 *  Crew is Two (Driver/Commander)

Right Walker... Lemme think on this one and I'll get back to you.

Use the Imperial APC's stats, rename it and make it available to everybody.

wzD:  I try.  I really do try. :)

Brother Jim:  It is a thought... but I am thinking of adjusting a few things to the statline...

Change troop capacity to six, crew of two, wounds to 4/2 cost 103 points.  Open Availability though I would think it a Cartel/Merc piece primarily.  Gun is Ultra-Charger as on the Vermin.

Call it the GM-Daimler Weasel Rapid Assault Carrier (WRAC).  I'd experiment with it be available as a single model per Support slot or Up to Two per, able to operate independantly.

  If you go the latter route, add five points to the Cost. :)

I promise.  Walker points up soon.

well ok- the track first.

Missile Tank.  74 points.
SSW4200p Mounted carrier: 67 points.

Tank was compaired to the TA6500 to get the feel right... the 6500 has the sensors and Recon training ,which is what drives the points up on it. :)

As Promised.... the walkers. Well, at least two.  Right walker is still in thought.... as I need to hunt down a better picture.

Sung-Po/Tambu Industries Tactical Walker Model 4 Golf  ( points 110)
Cc8 rc9 pw4 ld10 ac3 wd5/2 st10 mv5 ar23 sz6 
 *  Impenetrability
 *  Weapons are two Kensai Lmgs (one per side arc) and twin mounted Dragonstorm out the front
 *  Crew of Three (driver/gunner/ Commander)

Middle Walker...

Sung-Po/Tambu Industries Siege Walker Model 2 Charlie (points 95)
Cc8 rc9 pw4 ld10 ac3 wd5/3 st10 mv5 ar24 sz6 
 *  Impenetrability and Ambush
 *  Weapons are mounted twin Dragonfang Cannon (cc - pb +1 (2)sr0 (3) mr -1 (2) lr -3 (1) Dmg 13 x2 (Ballistic, Concussive Rending))
 *  Crew is Two (Driver/Commander)

Not too over the top I think.  Psuedo-Mishima Metal at its finest... and needing support to protect them from Auto Cannon/can openers.

Some Questions:

1 - Is the tracked vehicle called a TAK MKIII or does it go by another name?

2 - Is it an I-KORE vehicle and if so which faction?

3 - Is it still avialable from anyone?

I looked on ebay and a few places I thought it would be if it was an old I-Kore or Urban Mammoth fig, but didn't find it anywhere. I wouldn't mind having one to use as a Cybertronic APC for some scenarios.

Urban Mammoth still sells Void stuff on its website-you just have to click around to get to it.  [correction-it looks like they are no longer selling Void stuff-I guess we are stuck with NobleKnight for our stuff] I think the thing in question is a VASA vehicle, but it looks suspiciously like a Mishiman cardboard vehicle that I saw in one of the old 1stEd Chronicles magazines.

VeezCon products:  Not as good as if they had been actually produced by a real figure company, but better than using your shoe to proxy with...sort of!

@topkick - Yes a Vasa vehicle Tak MKIII - I got lucky enough to buy that one from Markus!  ;D

@archer - Karma to you for the stats and ideas!  Cant' wait to see the last one - It's armed with two MG's like on the one ont he far left, and its main armament appears to br some kind of autocannon.  Interestingly I was also thinking they were good for Mishima! :)

Funny enough I have TWO More unpainted Kryomek walkers - I'll need to put up some pics of those too.
