Serenity Characters in post Apocalyptic World

[sneakgun]

I started this conversation over on TMP The Miniatures page.

What kind of Vehicle would the crew use in the post Apocalyptic World, before
space travel? Serenity was a cargo vessel, so a tank wouldn't work. Maybe a
modified eighteen wheeler truck?

some ideas others posted;

Maybe a train, hauling cargo back in forth or off into the unknown. Having to
repair or reroute or… It would be large enough for the 9 characters. maybe like

How about a Herkimer Battle Jitney?

[HerbyF]

A couple of movie that might give you ideas are the 'Ghosts of Mars' & 'Damnation Alley'.

Just ran across this on another thread here. Very interesting. http://englishrussia.com/?p=1316

Jet trains...
Schienenzeppelin 

[JollyBob]

A DC-10. Those planes could pretty much cope with the end of the world, I reckon.

Either that or some kind of airship.

[Renfield286]

A Crawler?

or an Articulated lorry?

Land trains!





Land trains/ Road Trains I believe these are all Australian but i reckon one these with armour, plough and some firing platorms/ mounted weapons!

Im not crazy about the gun though, its a bit steampunk or something.
