Subject: Tau drones as grav emitters
Hey all, I was playing around with some of my fiddly bits while tryign to decide on how to build some grav gunships for my budding 15mm SG2 force and I came upon a kind of cool idea. I blue tacked the plastic top to a Tau (Warhammer 40K) drone to the rotor fixture of a 1/144 helicopter and it looked kind of cool. Give you the impression of a conventional helo configuration but instead of having a rotor up top you end up with a cicular grav-emitter. Alternately you could mount two on the side of a grav where the usual engine exaust ports would be, this produces a sort of hunch-backed effect. Not sure if this is what I'll go with but it has promise. Eli
