I'm going to apologize at the start Mladen, I used almost 80% of your ideas
here please forgive me but your MAP's are soooo coool!!!

Inspiration is obviously from Mladen. The moment I saw the latest one I went
nuts and started building my own right away nonstop for three days, every
bit of free time I got I built. I took mladen's ideas in most areas and
changed them somewhat but most of the credit goes to Mladen.

each leg has suspension( one of the pictures shows this)
instead of one hatch into the cockpit I made two, upper and lower to add
extra armour from above. the rail can move up and down somewhat.

there are turntables mounted on either side. machine guns can be mounted
here unfortunately I did not take photos of the one I made. I t can stand
very well
but like Mladen's B-05, it starts to slip one slippery surfaces. It has twin
guns mounted below to take care of any advancing troops.

It is not as good as Mladen's but I still like it. Pleeeeeeeese let me know
what you think I'd appreciate it. any constructive critisism is very welcome

thanks a ton(sorry again Mladen!)
I'll let the pictures speak the rest!!!!!

thanx

Geordan

(...) No need to apologize. 80% my design? No way! More like 20%, most of the stuff seems pretty original (except for the rail gun). (...) Gee golly wiz Geordan!

Geordan, Great job! I actually thought Mladen had slipped another one in on us. And very cool giving Mladen credit for your inspiration. <little snip here> (...) Clean design on the leg suspension. I like that. <little snip there> <here a snip> (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Very nice! It "feels" like a Star Wars AT-AT but this is a much more efficient design. Great work. Bobby (Neo-Oz) (...) (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
  Re: New Six legged mecha!!!!! MAP!! Mladen style
 
(...) Geordan and Mladen, Your MAPs are cool. Are they based on something that I don't know about? I'm not familiar with too many mechs from show, RPGs etc. It sort of reminds me of the Ice Spider Tanks from War Planets/Shadow Raiders. A CGI cartoon (...)
