Attention space-citizens,
Our forces searching the galaxy, planet by planet, for the long lost GA. Our moonbases are seeing increased 3vil activity, and there’s rising tension on the borders with the EB and the JE. PCS and the Star Rangers are answering the need to be mobile with maximum fire power with the introduction of the PTL-701 PCS Trooper Lander System and PCS Troopers.

The system is 3 fold. First the Pilot Pod (P’s) that is moonbase compatable:

Then the Carrier Unit Engine section (CUEs):

and finally the Mobile Command Base (MCB)

The craft can maintain long warp jumps and can travel in long range convoys. But, it’s main use is to quickly drop troops in a battle situation or harsh environment and cooridate ground operations. The CUE unit can provide a heavy bombardment of an LZ or give cover to troops from orbit using it’s FREEM blaster: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/legoober/PTL/ptl004.jpg

These craft are operated by Star Ranger support teams and pilots. Docking with the MCB is achieved by 8 MagnaLocks™. Watch your P’s and Cue’s as they connect via moonbase connectors.

Troopers wear high density Reflecto Armor and are armed with various Freem and Frap cannons.

Again, please report any thoughts about the new system and ideas for it’s future.

Admiral Giddens,

How do you do it sir? What does it take for a PCS associate to take action such as myself? A post from yourself perhaps. Or maybe just the realization that time is slipping by and space-time continuum is not reversible. I defintely fit into Ley Ward’s recent dilemma: “So, I have a backlog of posts (ie. comments to make and responses to other posts as well as MOCs to show.) on top of a backlog of things to photograph, and things to make. I get the chance to lurk at times and each time I do, I get more ideas to add to the pile.” Anyway...another excellent creation Chris! I was wondering what you had in store for that angled canopy. The modularity is perfect--it recalls Space Police [I], Starship Troopers,andStarcom for me. I can see the evolution of the Star Rangers (*cough* Where’s that one you mentioned Andrew? *cough*) through the technology, structure, and change in colors. Keep up the fantastic work. Good to know that reality has not kept you from all brickality (© if this is novel ~.^).

Sincerely,
Andrew P. Saada, Encryption Certificator

(...) Hey, sometimes you gotta take a break. I don't know about the rest of you guys but sometimes you don't wanna go in the lego room (cuz if you do you know you need to sort before building.. and who wants to sort?). Sometimes too many ideas and (...) (20 years ago, 15-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
