Anarchy Offline - Coloured streetlights + a portal to the Shadowlands (Page 37)

Looks nice.  However, whenever I see that VTOL model I can't help but thinking it should be painted up like a classic winnebago.

Yeah, but don't you then have to add the Eagle 5 logo, and the 'I (heart) URANUS' bumper sticker?

If it ends up not being licenced I will re-write the Anarchy Online specific sections and release the rules as a stand alone, small unit, skirmish/campaign game. Maybe the Frostgrave crowd will like it.

...and Osprey will release it with all your fantastic pictures. Your book is ready to release, I think. Sometimes I think you are also a german.

That's what I was hinting at.  It's like the designer was watching spaceballs and said "I can do that!"

[Mad Mecha Guy]

I suppose people will want a MDF Winnebago now?!!!

Site is back up, had to alter ISP set up & added an off site e-commerce system.

Nah, we're saying you already have.

I know, but I'm nothing if not Captain Obvious.

Half German, myself; I've even seen a picture of the house  where my Great-Grandfather lived, in Hannover(?), though when his family moved here, Germans were one of the 'immigrant hordes' Americans are repeatedly trying to repel. I assume my British half is repulsive enough without declarations.  Oh, wait, the Native Americans did that.

Hopefully you got the good half of the germans. The house of Hannover was long time the great ally of the british kingdom . But I think your british half is not really at the right place in america, I think. They tried to throw you in 1776, I think. Heard something about a tea-party. In germany or britain we solve such problems with football (soccer) and beer. Native americans? You think about the vikings, I think.

AFAIK the were the kings of Britain for quite some time.

Praise to Wikipedia, if not always right, always there:
>It succeeded the House of Stuart as monarchs of Great Britain and Ireland in 1714 and held that office until the death of Queen Victoria in 1901...

Queen Victoria was the granddaughter of George III and was an ancestor of most major European royal houses. <

Of course, then her husband gave them the name 'Saschsen-Coburg und Gotha', which the unpleasantness of the last century required a change to 'the House of Windsor.' Interesting.

And even less pertinent than my own Hannoverian heritage. (You do understand they were dirt farmers running from starvation and veritable serfdom.)

Although it's quite boxy, which is to be expected given the material, it just looks right. I really like it and may have to get one. Is the elevated track stable enough on its own?

[Marine0846]

Looks like the monorail fits in perfectly.
Very cool.

[matakishi]

Is the elevated track stable enough on its own?

Yes.

[Malebolgia]

Yes.

I wasn't really impressed by the rigidity of the whole thing, so I added magnets to the underside of the upper rail. Two magnets, one on each side. Now it's superfirm, especially with a bend in it. Very hard to topple!
And love your monorail. Great moody painting. Mine is on the list to be done, but first I need to pimp the raised rail pieces more to make them less flat and bland.

[Elk101]

Yes.

Excellent! It really looks useful for Judge Dredd or for an Aliens colony.

The monorail reminds me City of Heroes !
