OK, so you've seen this guy before. But what happens when he and his handfull of other sushispacemarines need heavy support..? They call in these guys!

… yeah, yeah, you have to go to the blog page to see what they look like. And no scrolling down to the bottom until you read the whole article! :)

I'm pretty sure sushispacemarine is a vigorously defended Games Workshop trademark, so you'd better beware mister!

Very cool though, very clever. Well done!

Now they need to add some water inside.

Fish in space…. Who cleans their tanks though?

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER07 Jun 2013 12:42 p.m. PST

That was very creative!

Thanks!

Now they need to add some water inside.

I really need to take a few pix of my bad ideas, too. I agree with you that water in the bowls would make it look cooler. The two (abysmal) ideas I tried were: (1) blue hilighter on the inside of the bowl to make a waterline (It looked silly and didn't add anything), and (2) clear hair gel (which has made a nice ectoplasm suspension for other projects, but refracted so much light that the fish were no longer clear). Anyone done anything like that with clear acrylic, maybe?

The walkers have automatic filters to clean the tanks (like the one in <U>Finding Nemo</U>). I toyed with the idea of a twist tie plant or two in it, but things got too crowded very quickly.

What rules?

I mostly use my own ruleset, QILS.

I used the sushispacemarines in playtesting the Soylent Green scenario at the WGV link above. (I just thought there was something poetic about the big secret of Soylent Green being that fish were making food out of people.) And I use them off and on in various game, especially against many of these guys.
