I worked overtime on this one. The UFO section is now 90% complete. I'll finish the rest tomorrow. Add this to the M-tron section, and it's the single largest overhaul I've ever put together...and I'm not done yet. ;-) Enjoy the pics of Equinox, (...)

I've done some fine tuning to the site. It is still best viewed in Netscape, as IE screws up the formatting of the page. The M-tron section is complete, so now you can see what the Overkill Mech gets to work with. The other sections of the site will (...) (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
