Title: Okhranka Fire Team, Tsargrad 2391
Post by: V on 18 January 2011, 03:08:18 PM

One of the Okhranka Fire Teams deployed to 'cleanse' Tsargrad of Neo-Soviet insurgents during the rebellion on Mockba.

It is rumoured that Okhranka personnel are in fact drawn from the secretive 'Cossack' cloning programme of the Russian Empire. Anecdotal evidence from the fighting on Mockba comes from a Red Crescent doctor, Dr. Ali Hassan, providing first aid to all combatants and civilians who stopped an Okhranka team from entering a make-shift hospital to search for insurgents. When the troopers stood down, and removed their helmets for a period of rest he noted how all four men looked almost identical. His quizzical looks drew their attention and they quickly replaced their helmets and moved off. Little did he realise it at the time, but Dr. Hassan's curious glance could have cost him his life. The 'Cossack' programme remains the Russian Empires most guarded secret and its existence is constantly denied.

Three of the troopers wear Kolontar system armour and carry AKM-99 or the squad assault weapon, the RPD-88. The final member of the four-man team wears the new Kuyak Battle Suit, which in this case is the fire support variant, sporting twin-linked chain guns and the twin barrelled 40mm PTRD-40 Anti-Material Cannon.

Nice work.  I like the use of the System Trooper head on the big power armor.

Dont worry, Si already knows...  ;)

These are for the Osprey 'Tomorrows War' book and Si is working closely with us.

Extremely well done and an idea worthy of theft. I'm anxious for more System troop sculpts myself.

I've had some masters of the latest sculpts a month or so back:
