Posted February 29, 20169 yr Date: 28 Fabrarali 3816 Location: E-01 Dowarr Tags: Engineering, Spying, Land/Water Vehicle, Piracy Covert Mission: To install advanced long range listening station hidden in water extraction and purification site B. Secondary Mission: To inspect/repair water extraction and purification equipment. Engineer's Log: ORB and I have arrived at site B. The MantaRaySpeeder was amazing. So smooth, so fast.....I need more transportation like this now that our missions have taken a more military direction. Ok ORB, this is site B. Ok, the larger dinosaurs should be in the middle of the island. If we just stick to the outer edges we should be fine. We will do half of the ......wait What?! Dinosaurs.....you said this was site B! Haha, very funny. This is M.A.N.T.I.S. site B.....not that site B.....I wonder if I should restrict the amount of time you watch old movies..... Dinosaurs would be nice though....... We will do the half of the equipment inspection first, install the Tower, and then finish with the inspections. So far everything looks to be in order. All equipment appears to be in good working order....except for the very out dated Moisture Evaporator 2000. We will inspect all equipment more closely. <covert log:> I have located the installation site for Microwave Tower X. We will proceed with installation while inspecting all the other equipment. The latest advanced long range listening station designed to look like an ordinary microwave tower will blend in amongst all the other machines. This Moisture Evaporator 2000 will need to be removed. ORB, we will take it back with us for refurbishment. OK, Moisture Evaporator 2000....just follow me. .............. My Lady, this is just a machine....why are you talking to it? Do you actually think it will move on it's own? Yea, well, after the last time...I just assumed it was an old Octan robot trying to follow us home. Please remove it ORB. Let's get that 'microwave tower' in so we can finish the inspections. Now we can listen in to Octan and pick up any data transfers remotely. Looks good.....hmm...it kinda does look like a microwave tower...Inspection time. Water extraction looks good, all gauges normal. Pumps all online. Next.... Dinosaurs would have been nice, something to follow us home...... ...,,,<<<.... Water purification working, all gauges normal. How does it look on your side ORB? Everything appears to be normal, sort of...... ....<<<<....>>>>>..... Good, now onto the communications array. Wait why did you say 'sort of'? My Lady.....look over here.... What is it ORB? Everything looks okay to me....why are you acting strange......WHAT, WHY,.... It Is Following Us......you said it was just a machine.....ORB....ORB...., why are you looking intently at the working perfectly fine communications array..... .........<<<<<<.....>>>>>!!!!!!!! My Lady, I suspected he might be....actively....alive when he moved from where I carried him. He says he wants to become a valued member of M.A.N.T.I.S and he will be no trouble at all.....he has traveled a long way just to meet us.....and.... ORB.....he ran away, or rather flew away from Octan didn't he? Yes, My Lady. Can we keep him? Please? Please? Since there are no dinosaurs here and he is rather out dated. Of course you can keep him......I really need to find a home at HQ for all these robots that keep following us home. YES! Thank you!!! Next time we are at HQ, I will help find a good place for them to live! Come on you two, lets go home! You are so going to love it, there are so many old movies to watch and so many adventures to go on! ......<<<<<....>>>>....!!!!!!....:):):) I am so going to restrict your movie watching........ Thanks for looking and reading, hope you liked it. C&C always welcome. I was particularly pleased with this build as I tried to fit as many pieces of equipment as possible while still looking functional. The MantaRaySpeeder is my favorite land/water vehicle built yet.
February 29, 20169 yr Awesome build Lady K! I keep spotting cool new details and NPU every time I look at it
March 1, 20169 yr Impressive array of machines here! Funny story as well. Edited March 1, 20169 yr by Mr Greeble
March 1, 20169 yr I like how you used the shield on the communications array. You also managed to use the new crutch piece in several places. Great build this week.

I really wanted as many different kind of machines as I could reasonably get with the story still making sense.

Thanks SpacerSteve. The communications array turned out well, I was very pleased with how it looked. I really love the new crutch piece, it has great potential.
