Flips Wastelands Project

Agent Tanya is one of the UC's top agents, some say she is the best of the best. No matter the mission, no matter the odds, she has come through time and time again.
She comes from a long line of military service men and women, to be a soldier is in her blood, however she began her career in search and rescue, finding downed pilots during the 2nd Vietnam war (Which led to Vietnam joining the Neo Soviet Empire). During one such mission her chopper was shot down deep over enemy territory, she was the lone survivor and went into hiding in the jungle of Vietnam, cut off from her own lines she resorted to hit and run tactics agains the Vietnamise army. It was reported she was responsible for the destruction of an entire tank column.
She was eventually rescued and during debreifing reassigned to the UC's special forces wing, where she was retrained as an expert in espionage.

Tanya is considered a legend among UC forces, having fought in Vietnam, the seige of Keiv and the liberation of Seattle to name but a few. Though she generally works alone, ahead of any main force, she works well in a team, intergrating into any team dynamic quite easily.

Tanya is often equipped with a unique SMG designed to take any ammo magazines, allowing Tanya to make good use of enemy ammunation, as well as a pistol flare gun, refitted to be a micro grenade launcher.

Due to her status to the UC and her actions against the Neo Soviets, the NSE has decalared her a H.V.T to be captured alive. (Should I ever get to game I will use a rule that states if Tanya looses her last wound she is KO, rather than dead, then its up to the enemy player to drag her back to thier lines as a captive, should make for a fun campaign    )


Now the boring bit. Tanya here is Werner Klockes Army Brat model released by coolminiornot, and was limited to only 300, I snapped one up on pre-order when my works bonus came through. Took about 4 hours to paint.

The original design, I noticed the pictures dont show her cigar to clear, just wanted to stop anyone saying "ew stubble on a girl!" 

[Mancha]

I didn't notice she had a face, let alone stubble.

I really love Werner Klocke's stuff, but I just can't help but think she doesn't have enough... protection?

Nice paintjob, not too keen on the model though. I think it was a good move painting the legs as a legging rather than bare skin as well.

was gonna say she's more of a man than most of us with that 5 o clock shadow, boy she's one scary girl.

A typical squad of CBats, Mark 3 units, lead by a Mark 4 with a drone for recon, armed with Pulse rifles and a Plasma Cannon.

Due to the military build up of advanced weapon systems and genetic enhancements of feild personal by nearly every major power, the UC decided in 2053 to upgrade its war droid program, originally big bulking machines requiring a remote operator, they were prone to being ammbushed easily, or rendered useless from operator assaination. The replacements were deployed with little fanfare in 2059 and proved to be a smashing sucess.

The Combat Droids, or CBats as they became known deveastated Neo Soviet lines during NNWW3, however during the Resource War, a major glitch was discovered.

The Cbats were designed to combat the eneimes of the UC, however they were also programmed to belive that the UC could never be beaten. As a result of the UC's retreat and abandoning of vast territorys, the Cbats computed that the United Coalition was not in fact the true UC, and they declared war.

Now the machines wander the wastelands, attacking any organics they encounter, entire settlements have been wiped out by these machines and no one knows how large thier numbers truely are.



(Void Androsynths, got the box set for £4 on ebay, with a heroclix drone thing)

Where are the EMP grenades when you need them?

The Ford MegaCorporation Heavy Worker.

The HeavyWorker, or HW, was designed as a all terrain armored fighting machine, initially sold to the United Coaliton and fielded during the 2nd Vietnam war. It proved to be a massive failure. For an all terrain tank, it found it self bogged down within the jungles. The UC military order was cancled, the remaining units where shipped to police precints and industrial sites.

This particular model is desinged for the bending and placement of steel girders. It is "armed" with a flame burner for heating the girders, a claw for holding or bending the steel and a heavy rivetter.
