Forward, Dino-Riders! (G: K19 Desert King vs Ulandus)

[Tomsche]

Pharah Ran-Tutnesses overlooked the sandy plains, as he considered the options. He had at his disposal one of his most fierce beasts of war, the golden scarab had been inserted to empower his wand of mind control. The beast would thunder onwards, scattering those in front of him. Today, he would relive his glory of ancient days, today, he would be a Rider of Dino again!

Okay, I admit, this is seriously inspired by the 80s cartoon of futuristic warriors riding big dinosaurs, battling it out with laser cannons.

So when I wanted to build a Guerilla build for the Guilds of Historica Kaliphin chapter of book 2, I had this idea of intermingling fantasy and the cartoons into one.

I had one of the big Triceratops models at my disposal, so in style of the old series, I added some armour to the beast, a platform and a big gun... which in this case is a balista of course instead of a laser cannon.

For the crew, since I`m in the Desert King faction, I went for a mummy wielding one of those typical rods the egyptians carried long ago.

Forward, beast of destruction!!!

Nice!

[Balbo]

Very nice work and story!

The idea you had was interesting but I don't really like the way you executed it. The platform seems rather clunky and the crossbow weapon on the back seems to have elements that are elevated differently.

Neat build, I like the use of that Triceratops

[Captain Braunsfeld]

I was not aware that we had that kind of troops..

[Tomsche]

It was a relic we had somewhere lying around in some old arsenal ;-)

[Adair]

Nice! While I think that a BBF would have gotten you more points, and the whole could have been more polished, but it's a good idea none the less!

[soccerkid6]

That's an intimidating mount!
