So, I've been itching to pick me up some of the Infinity Nomads Tsyklon Sputniks ( link & link ) and I'm wondering who they'd go better with as walker tank types: Khurasan Felids (Cats) or CMG Protolenes (Dogs)? I'm thinkin the Felids would fit better myself. But, I do love them Dogs, and I'd love to get them something cool to drive! Of course there's still plenty of Transformer AT-TEs out there for $17 USD at Walmart I can get for the Dogs if I need to. I dunno
what do you guys think? I know I'll be getting both of them anyway, but, I need to build some support gear around them- AFVs in the tune of tanks, personnel carriers and, maybe, artillery pieces. |

Look at some of the other remotes from the other Infinity factions. Got some nifty ones, |

I'd go with the Felids myself – it has a 'cat-like' stalking feel to it. The other remotes really don't do it for me for either species. Cheers Mark |

The Pan Oceanic Dronbots look sort of catlike, like they're about to pounce on someone. A better way of distinguishing them might be to use larger single units for your feline force, since big cats have a reputation as solo hunters (prides of lionesses notwithstanding), and packs of smaller units in wolf- or hyena-like groups for your canine forces. |

"since big cats have a reputation as solo hunters" well yes but these are evolved creatures, so i don't see what the primitive ancestors have to do with anything. it's like saying "put the terran infantry in trees because monkeys like to climb around." must say i like the cmg humans but the dogs don't do anything for me, too rigid a posture. look like they are having their temp taken anally. you're going to put that WHERE? lol |

good question! Hadn't thought of using those for 15's but they'd work. I kinda of get a protolene feel for them. Hyenas stalk like cats in some ways but it's silhouette sort of reminds me of a hunched, skulking hyena. |
