These are made from the Shells of the giant turtlelike creatures on the nearby seas of Lustria.
A Giant Crossbow is mounted on a shell, manned by three crewing skinks,
these skinks are said to be the most psychotic of them all, as they move around at extremely
fast speeds, and often go completely mad at the chaos going onc around them.
They wear warpaint, and harnass the shell to a Team Of Two Horned Ones.
They are effective Missle cavalry, but in a pinch can function as hit-and-run units.

For all intensive Purposes, this counts as a Light chariot;

Special rules: Light chariots - as chariots with the exceptions noted below.
-May form units
-Move as Fast cavalry
-Unit Strength 3
-Add +1 to the armour save of characters riding them, rather than +2

I like the second one, as I can see it working.

But I have my doubts at the first one. Does it have wheels? because those won't function in a jungle.

An upside down turtleshell however doesn't need any wheels, it just slides through the jungle.

I also have a suggestion for the second one. Because it is large, IMO it could be used to "squash" small targets, effectively charging over them but still doing impact hits.

You also inspired me to crate something really nice for the lizardmen. Thank you

Cool, thats great. Glad you found it interesting.

Is there a rule about riding over smaller targets? or would I have to make one up. I do like that idea of yours.

I'm accually interested of what you had an idea to make. Keep us posted.


Well, Rulewise, any suggestions?

Enoshima - May 26, 2006 02:59 PM (GMT)
as far as I know there isn't a rule allowing you to squash small targets, but that doesn't mean you can't create it.

The idea I had was to have a skink priest inside a giant turtleshell carried by saurus/skinks (Haven't decided).
The shell would give protection and have hull points, just like the steam tank (but a lot weaker obviously) and it would only have a movement of 1 or 2.
