I've just put up another building in my paper model section.
This one is a complete Moon base type structure. With linking corridors,
launch pad, hangar, hydroponics building etc. Sort of Space 1999 in layout.
Probably a good hook for DS scenarios.
I will have pictures up at some point to help people construct them, but these
are hardly complicated models to start with.
You can get it here (the model that is;)

Now there's synchronicity for you. I was just starting work on a small DS
scenario to be set on Mars. Here's the outline:
Force A - Unamed so far - has a Mars base, this base is well defended
against direct orbital assault, lots of static ADS systems but only a small
ground defence element. The base is some distance from other bases on the
planets so they don't need one.
Force B - Unamed so far - decides that a ground assault is feasible, if
the force size is kept small and light on personnel to minimize life support
requirements.
Force A Orbat (Skeleton) Infantry Platoon
4 Hi-mobility wheeled APC's (HOPLITES?), 8 Infantry teams - I thought of
using Adler Federation Marines for these. Tank Platoon 4 Wheeled AFV's Milita
Platoon
8 Miltia Infantry teams - restricted to the base - they have no suits,
can not fire out of the base
(What are they going to do - open the windows)
2 civilain VTOL's (Space 1999 Eagles)
Objective - keep the base intact and keep force B out.
Force B Orbat (Skeleton) All using MMRAV vehicles Powered Armour Platoon
4 Hi-mobility wheeled APC's, 8 Powered Infantry teams
Assault Gun Platoon x 2 4 wheeled AG's MRL Section 2 Medium wheeled MRL's
'Air' Defence section 2 ADS vehicles
Objective - take the base from Force A intact
Mind you I have the buy the vehicles first, this may delay things a bit. On
the other hand I'll be going to Salute this year.

Well as I have always said, if people need something specific for a scenario
then I am more than willing to give it a go. I still have on my list of things
to do, some futuristic looking civilian buildings (skyscrappers, apartment
blocks etc) which someone expressed an interest in.
