(...) Having just scoured the net, I can't find any pictures of a GEV. I will have to recheck my game box, but I thought I recalled a turret on the GEV. I have a hard time imagining the GEV being effective without a turret, and the targeting (...) (24 years ago, 9-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.gaming)

(...) Very nice! I wasn't aware there was an actual turret on the SJ games version, but it looks great! I'm looking forward to seeing more of the engine detail--having been an avid fan of Winchell Chung's renderings, these are all the more cool to (...)

(...) Oh, that is *SO* unfair! Only 2 pictures? More pics! More pics! :-, It looks pretty cool, and I like how you've handled the camo color scheme. Can't wait to see more. Of course, the minifig-scale Ogre Mark VI would be cool, too... ;-) Cheers, (...) (24 years ago, 7-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.gaming)

Hello, I put up two pics of my interpretation of a GEV from the Steve Jackson games Ogre/GEV, at (URL) . I'm working on my troopship GEV, getting the doors/hatchways right for the troops is a little tricky. Thanks, George (24 years ago, 7-Aug-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.gaming)

To whoever asked who did the special effects, it was me. It was done in about 5 seconds in a freeware verson of Photoshop 2.0. I hear 5.0 is really spiffy. (...) Do'h to both of those!
