We've seen it all before. maybe DSMK2 should just make it do what everything else does in a cooler way. smoke on the bullets (trails), steam from joints perhaps, just make something more aesthetically cool and people like it. cool explosions with smokey emissions never go astray either.

Re: Diemos Federation UPDATED: 12/10/08 (The diemos cyborg = chinese bootleg of a DSTech robot)
I'm going... Or rather working on a fire support system that'll make the diemos faction more unique. This fire support system packs a punch but...
I'm going to need a dropship for this faction.

Re: Diemos Federation UPDATED: 12/10/08  A bit of an update of what I am working on... Having trouble with the dropship design. The Diemos Federation just can't always rely on foot soldiers... They're semi-permanent stationary defensive units that can be deployed anywhere. The fire support units I mentioned...

Re: Diemos Federation UPDATED: 12/10/08 Hey DS, for the fire support unit deployment, how about using some kind of drop pod with a similarly shaped sprite (maybe with thermal shielding?) that gibs darkstorm pod style and deposits the turret?
It seems that risking a dropship that's easily blown to bits (unless you're armoring it Tantus style) to drop an expensive piece of hardware in a combat zone doesn't make a lot of sense.
EDIT: Irregardless, awesome turrets, they'll be great for defense.

Re: Diemos Federation UPDATED: 12/10/08 Those things are awesome! But I thought they were going to be tanks, or walker turrets. They really have a really strong impression of a tank (which would be even awesomer).

Bump for small update: Just want some word on the cannons, it'll be a good idea to preplace them as of now. I'm stuck on one thing though, for some reason it takes one penetrating bullet to kill the turret, can't figure out how to fix that. So currently they're in a somewhat invincible state. A heavy duty dropship is being worked on...
