Forces of the Tharaskian Wars

Post by Skutan » Mon Feb 13, 2012 3:54 pm

Hi everyone I used to be a huge fan of LEGO in my younger years, a passion that was revived when I found LDD and started on this little project. Anyways these are my first MOCs featuring a Pesconian Patrol Ship:

Originally the Pesconian Patrol Ships supported a light VTOL-aircraft for reconnicance and light combat support. These where however discarded when the Pesconians hardly could reach Tharaskian shores due to the Aquantian League blokade.
The Solution to Pesconian Patrol Ships being easy prey for the strong and predatory Aquantian League submersive-navy was the devlopment of the Pesconian Light Naval Mech aswell as upgraded under-water weapons for the marines onboard.

The Pesconian Light Naval Mech has been specifically designed for fighting both under water and on land, making it perfect for not only spearheading landfall and securing a beach foothold but also as a close-support for the navy against attacks from submarine-crafts.

It carries a rapid-fiering harpoon gun that also has an integrated lance-gun aswell as mounting two torpedoes. This coupled with its energy-sword makes gives it both strong mid to close-range fire aswell as the ability to simply cleave through enemy vehicles and shields flooding them instantly.
The Mech also caries all the wargear required for its marine pilot to function at full combat capacity in case he need to leave his vehicle.

The crew

The crew consists of one captian, one hand aswell as four marines of wich one operates the mech.

The under water combat force

All marines are trained in warfare under the surface aswell as on land, the dual-purpose lance-gun is a fairly new weapon that quickly became standard for these elite troopers. It can either fire a heavy harpoon or in its normal fiering-mode lash out conventional lance-beams.

Well thats it for now! I am curently working on a Hunter-Submarine of the Aquantian League that I intend to get up in this thread in the future :)

Why is the thread name all messed up when I actually named the thread "Forces of the Tharaskian Wars"? doesn't seem to work to edit it either :S

*edit
Oh, now it happened again! the forum somehow turns "F-O-R-C-E-S" into "Feces", whats up with that?

The mech is pretty good, you just need to build it. also a lot of words are buttplugged, simply because they can be.

Welcome to the forum! I like seeing some normal-non pirate navy involved in brikwars. The color scheme is pretty good, but a cynical part of my mind says they fight an army that is identical to them, but with a red coloration.

Well I guess feces will have to do then :)

Fun to se such a lot of replies so quickly!

And regarding the enemies of this army they won't be anything similiar at all, especially not red! ;)

Well you could always learn Alt Code and give your Förces a heavy metal umläut.

Love the boat and the mech is pretty cool too, but I have to ask...
What mode of LDD did you build this in?

Because while you have a nice color scheme, I'm not quite sure some of the pieces you used actually come in the colors you have them in.
For instance, I'm not sure if that printing of torso comes in aquamarine, the aquanaut armor only ever came in white, and I'm pretty sure the "blaster rifles" are only in black (I'd switch them out for the shorter "blaster carbines" anyways, those stupid stocks make the rifles almost impossible to hold right to begin with).

Yeah, I'm sorry to tell you this Skutan, but I don't think you'll be able to use this color scheme...

...He built this in ether LDD Extended or the old Lego Universe mode, and used bricks in colors they never came in...

So it'll be different colors. whatever.

It's always great to see some naval prowess on the forums! Everyone loves doing battles in space, but why can't futuristic ultraviolence occur underwater and on the beaches? I once had a mech designed for underwater/shoreline combat, but I didn't really like it much. If I'd thought of attaching a propeller backpack like you did though, I may have changed my mind!
