heh, I customised my tau xv8 enforcer battlesuit with four burst cannons and two SMS systems XD
And I even worked on my own tau fire warrior commander.

mek'tis xv8 battlesuit is armed with twin linked burst cannons with integrated multi tracker, a sms and a shield gen
she also has iridium Armour and extra jets to compensate the added weight, giving her far better Armour without loosing any of her maneuverabilityΒ

looks pretty awesome, I do like the customisation and the gadgets she used, perfect for Mont'ka.

thanks
well i thought shes going to need extra Armour if shes getting so close to the enemy but doesn't want to lose any maneuverability either
so, extra Armour, extra jets, twin bursters for laying into soft targets and sms for anything heavier
her bodyguards are eqiuped similarly, with a rather multi role setup. better to be ok at fighting everything than to specialize in one enemy and find yourself against another you cant fight

welcome.
true, versatility is the key to defeating large numbers of different enemies.

variety is the spice of death XD

hehe, my Tau Commander is also quite similar, except that the character is a male, and he comes from Virola of the Tau empire.
He specialises in Mont'ka and he also deploys in a battlesuit.
Nickname is BlazeHammer.

my shas'el comes from the vash'ya sept
i havent really given her a nickname... i should work on that
π: 0 β©: 1
I see. what is her sept well known for?
Well, I would suggest WaterStriker. (her attack styles are like water, fluid and seamless)
π: 0 β©: 1
her sept is a well known air cast sept, providing the bulk of the tau space fleets and pilots
it also has a somewhat meager fire cast population, from with mek'ti hails
i like the name, but maybe something more catchy, water striker doesn't exactly roll off the tongue to well XD
hmm...
maybe commander wavestrike?

I see. Well, so I presume fire caste warriors from there must be rare.
she's a beauty, I wonder if she comes from renowned family on her sept world.
waterstrike is perfect!

its a mainly air cast sept, with many shipyards and airdromes
the fire warriors there train mainly as marines, specializing in ship boarding missions and swift hit and run raids
waterstrike is good but i think im going to go with strikewave, it rolls off the tongue better and is a bit catchier
do you have any artwork of your commander?
π: 0 β©: 1
I see. I somehow can see Mek'ti leading a cadre of firewarriors from that sept deploying in a ship boarding action.
strikewave? Hmm...yeah, it is catchy and rolls off the tongue. I like it.
Sadly no, but I had his concept in mind. He is muscular like all the rest of the fire caste from his sept, and has a gruff but handsome look.

i enjoy building strategys and tactics around dense indoor or urban scenery
having so much cover makes it that much easier to surround the prey
shame, id love to see some art of him
im in the middle of coloring mek/ti on her battlesuit at the moment, though its taking a while ...

I see, interesting, fits Mont'ka very well.Β
well, I am looking for someone who can do him justice.
I like her battlesuit, but I would prefer it if Mek'ti is in a pilot jumpsuit.
π: 0 β©: 1
indeed it does
well when im next available to take a commission il contact you
yeah i guess a jumpsuit would fit more, but she likes to.. inspire her men

wow, I see. you like his character huh?
"cough" pin up poster anyone? "cough" That will raise morale lolz
π: 0 β©: 1
lmao i should do a pin up XD
"the greater good needs you and we've got big guns"
yeh i like the character enough, plus i love drawing tau
so yeh when next i have the time il contact you ^_^

I see...

Looks like a burst cannon, with more barrels than usual.
More barrels mean higher fire rates!
π: 0 β©: 1
yeh she has a burst cannon on each arm, i love the idea of her rocketing around the battlfield spraying death everywhere
as for the piture, i drew it mostly from memory

Usually someone thinks of a battlesuit as a big, slow, bulky tank-like thing.
And then there's the Tau battlesuits with just about the agility of a freaking ninja.

nothing says fuck logic like a battlesuit dropkick XD

Tau Battlesuit dropkick!

dynamic entry, who sucks in close combat now o.O

Yeah, from that motivational poster of the Fal'shia XV8 (Yay Fal'shia, that's where Sta'ru comes from) kicking that Space Marine in the face

You mean, the Batlesuit, or Mek'ti?
π: 0 β©: 1
Probably both. Make that suit orky and mount the blue skin on the front like a hood ornament.

I meant less looting her, and more, *ahem*... 'LOOTING' her, if you catch my drift.
