Hi all,
I've seen Warmaster Nice's Ordinatus Krieg, and like it. And then I've seen Jok3r's version, and that's great too. And Krooza is feeling the mek-waaaaaghh coming on, I'll bet, as he's already commented on Orky Big Gunz being bigger.... so: anyone in for an escalation - an arms race? I want to see if we end up with something larger than an Inquisitor scale Basilisk.
So far we have the two Kriegs - I don't know which is larger.
Next? All races are welcome.
The rules are:
(1) it has to be a long range artillery weapon of any type.
(2) it should have a clearly identifiable main weapon system (multiple-barrels allowed)
(3) the weapon can be static or mobile, and in the latter case, on wheels, tracks, a walker, a skimmer, a flier (!) or a   floating (i.e. ship or barge) hull.
Here's an old model of mine which I think falls within this category and can join The Gun Club. As an example of rule (2), although my Titan has a mortar on its back, it's clear that the main weapons are the twin bombardment cannon.

The Orks bring on reinforcements, even though they're not painted yet. This one's from L-4' Supagun force.  :D

Ye dark gods.  Don't you boys know anything.  It isn't size that matters, but how many you have. :D

It looks like I have to bring forwards my plans for my ordo reductor army and my Centurio Ordinatus.

By the way, very nice Gargant, Chroma - I recognize most of the Mega-G bits and some others, but what is the lower hull, around the lower cannon? Scratchbuilt?  :cool:

Gah! I just remembered I promised to do some scanning...  :blush:

P.S.
I say one tank gun beats a hundred assault rifles if the rifles are all the oposition has.  :D
