I do like the spears.

The missile launcher are all nice, but I think I have a preference for the last one.

Mace-spears look good. Kinda clunky, but different enough from almost everything else and that's a good thing. In fact, if you just want short maces, instead of a hybrid weapon, that would be great!

I like the heavy weapons, but underslung under one arm seems a bit over the top to me and done to death--maybe resting on their shoulders instead.

Gimme some initial vibes on this "sketch" I'm playing with - that base is 20x40mm - focusing on really basic shapes and concepts at this point...

Looking for a mass-produced, no frills APC for the sisterhood. It's got enough room for 10 passengers and 2 crew, front and side exits.

Might have different versions with turrets, etc.

How about bigger diameter wheels ala Aliens APC?

Luv your designs. Will be ordering soon.

Like it overall, but...

It seems a bit tall; could it be flatter and wider? I think it would look meaner that way... It looks like it's tall enough to stand inside, which is unrealistically comfortable for a military vehicle.

Perhaps some armour on the outside of the wheels? They look vulnerable to small arms fire.

Also, the front turret has very limited traverse; If the vehicle gets flattened, but the turret stays at its current height, then it could have 360 or at least 270 traverse.

The rear cupola/hatch is where the driver would sit, right? It gives the vehicle a nicely distinctive style. Perhaps adding a pintle-mount gun, or a missile tube, for the driver to operate when the vehicle is stationary?

I like it - it looks a little cute, kinda boxy with big round wheels - it fits the rest of the range (o:

Also, I really like the 'bulldog' kinda look to its front

I was going to say the same thing regarding the front turret, doesn't seem practical given the small angle.

It looks like it can fit at least 30 soldiers easily. It is also too tall (specially for a military vehicle, most try to keep as flat a profile as possible), and the turret should be either offset or on higher, in between the ridges it cannot rotate.

What about lowering and lengthing it and adding one or two more axles? That door looks built for an NBA team right now.

Concept scatter shot! Any of these stick? I can adjust scale still, just playing with shapes:

6 wheeled, truck like:

Quad Tracks:

Stub nose with fenders:

6 wheeled "landing craft":

Reverse Half track:
