Modern wargaming isn't my cup of tea at all but actually that could be a nice car for the Future Wars.

Same here! In fact I was already eyeballing it for 'future' duty....

Very cool, great looking kit.

I agree it looks really scifi, just the job for alien bug hunting.

Oooh, I definately see potential for that APC in a Post Apocalypse setting as well

Great job there, CompanyB!

One reason I green lighted doing the Stryker, and taking the time to sculpt all the variants (no more sleep for me!!!) is that is has great potential for future war scenarios, zombies, horror, etc. I'll be outfitting one with a squad of hazard suit copplestone troops, to rid the streets of the zombie menace (or be eaten, depending on the die rolls...)

If anyone cares to see the new Hollywood remake of "I am Legend" they will use Strykers during the evacuation of New York sequence. not sure if they will be fighting off the cannibal/vampires (or whatever it turns out to be...)

As is, it works and a good standard troop transport for any troops. Stargate anyone?

Yes, it will go very well with my Copplestone Future Wars troopers.

Would it be feasible for you make a couple of futuristic turret variants to add a little variety?

Very nice and the general concensus seems to be great for future wars

supervike · « **Reply #12 on:** November 30, 2007, 06:45:34 AM »

Any hint of what the price may be?

CompanyB · « **Reply #13 on:** December 01, 2007, 07:56:37 AM »

Pricing...well that's still to be determined till I get back the casting quotes. I'd expect it to be similar to our other larger models like the WW2 LVT's, or Brigade Games larger WW1 tanks.

Although, with the dollar dropping like a stone, it will probably be cheaper for anyone outside of the U.S.

And yes, there will be some metal crew and soldier figs as well. Just waiting for some buddies and relatives to send me photos of themselves in their Stryker gear.

First release will be both the command and troop versions. Slate armor will be an optional add-on kit.

An alternate "Sci-Fi" turret sounds interesting. I'll have to see what I can drum up.
Maybe a condensed version of the "Rail Gun", or one of the weapon systems that is in development (real , but futuristic looking.)

How about this thingy as a scifi weapon?
