I was going to post a seperate message but since I don't have any photos,
much less a web-site, here is fine.
After some rebuilding of already completed parts, building of some new parts
and general mess making and lego de-sorting, the dropship Sword of Alexander
is complete. Shipped to M'kwarie staging grounds yesterday it is now taking
up a large amount of desk-space. (I didn't think it was big until I tried to
put in my kit-bag to carry home...).
At 72ish studs long and a width of 24 studs (wingspan 70 studs) it's big
enough to carry a rhydon APC (or variant) or two Archangel HAV-10s. Sporting
three Dilithium Intertial State Complex Oscliator Ball engines (each larger
than a Rhydon) and four SmallRoundThingy(TM) Launch assist jets the dropship
is able to go from cold start to orbit in a little over 3.2 minutes.
Although lightly armed (four PeeWee Laser turrets) the weaponary is mearly
to keep landing fields clear of aggressors during takeoff/landing. The
interior is well.. spartan, something Quirk plans to remedy when next at the
shipyards, although that will have to wait until after the Bricktorian Campaign.
