We are very pleased to release the next generation of armoured warfare for our 15mm Nova Respublik range, the Drakon tank and Grifon IFV.

Built to supplement the vast fleets of Red Banner tanks and Hedgehog IFVs, these vehicles represent a significant step forward in technology, matching that of federal vehicles.

picture

The base tank, the Drakon-T, may be armed with either a plasma gun or a railgun and has a robot self defence system to protect it from both close assault and missiles.

picture

Still experimental but fielded in one company, the Drakon-G is the first Nova vehicle to employ grav tech, copied from captured Federal vehicles.

picture

To provide vital infantry support to the new tanks, the Grifon IFV, a development of the Drakon hull, can carry a full squad of infantry and has a rapid fire mini-railgun for anti-personnel or light anti-tank work. Against heavier targets it may have disposable missile boxes added to the flanks.

picture

The experimental Grifon-G employs the same grav propulsion system as the Drakon-G and these vehicles support the Grav tanks in battle.

For all of the above vehicles, platoon sets are available at a discount. The models were designed by Steve Tyler. Our own dwartist provided the amazing paint jobs -- thanks David!

These are available now, comrades, at the link below.

Nice models and paint jobs !!!!

Heinz Good Aryan30 Jul 2014 8:27 a.m. PST

glad to see these out, i have some of the red banner tanks but i like these designs better……

Personal logo javelin98 Supporting Member of TMP30 Jul 2014 8:38 a.m. PST

Those look great!

I like the APC with the grav tracks!

khurasanminiatures30 Jul 2014 9:57 a.m. PST

The theory on these aryan is that they are from the same force as the red banners but using federal tech, so they have the shape of the nova vehicles but the detailing of the federal vehicles. I think they complement JBR's original designs well.

Saw these this morning and my wallet has filed a lawsuit against me. I forgot to mention that when you click on the APC links at the site, you get the tank's picture.

khurasanminiatures30 Jul 2014 10:36 a.m. PST

Works ok for me.

Any Update on 6mm Jasmine Aliens ? Please ? TMP link evil grin

TK 42130 Jul 2014 2:11 p.m. PST

It does now though earlier it didn't. I even closed the browser and tried it again. I'm torn, like an old sweater! I want to get those as they are the first run and that's always the best but I'm just buying too much right now. Decisions, decisions.

Stealth100030 Jul 2014 2:14 p.m. PST

TO nice. How do you do it.

kallman30 Jul 2014 3:56 p.m. PST

Well damn! I will have to add these to the growing red army of the future. Sadly I have too much to work on at the moment and too little money. Ah but at some point these will be MINE! MURAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

khurasanminiatures30 Jul 2014 5:23 p.m. PST

Legion I put in an email to the caster and will update as soon as I hear back.

khurasanminiatures31 Jul 2014 7:00 a.m. PST

Ok guys, the HTML is fixed on the ordering for the platoon packs. Thanks to everyone who pointed it out.

Heinz Good Aryan31 Jul 2014 7:47 a.m. PST

U DA MANN K !!!! A bunch of us seem to like those little Xenos ! thumbs up

khurasanminiatures31 Jul 2014 10:36 a.m. PST

Legion their response was "we haven't started them yet but we will put them in the next mould." frown

This is why things take so long! (Or one reason.)

TK 42131 Jul 2014 10:37 a.m. PST

Payday is the best day, specially on Friday. Got and itchy finger on the trigger. I can't resist the temptation!

Personal logo Legion 4 Supporting Member of TMP In the TMP Dawghouse31 Jul 2014 4:28 p.m. PST

Sales of the MDMS vehicles have really shot up so it seems people are getting ready for the JTFB by buying their rides!

Heinz Good Aryan01 Aug 2014 7:06 a.m. PST

ordered two platoon sets of the grav tanks and two platoon sets of the grav apcs. that will keep me busy for a while!!! when are the strafbat coming out???

TK 42101 Aug 2014 2:20 p.m. PST

DAAAAMN! I'm torn, like an old sweater! Tracks or grav?

khurasanminiatures03 Aug 2014 9:56 a.m. PST

By the way, just wanted to clear something up -- the Grifon-G comes with the dual purpose mini-railgun, not the mini-plasma gun shown in the image. That appears to have been a field alteration. grin

wminsing04 Aug 2014 5:52 a.m. PST

A little late to the party but EXTREMELY NICE work on these. The models are great and the paint job really makes them stand out. Really need to start that 'Space Commie' force I'm thinking about….

Those look great, though I got to say I prefer the look of the tracked versions. Any word yet on the airfan/rotor versions of the Phalanx gunship? I want those SO BAD :) :)

khurasanminiatures04 Aug 2014 11:47 a.m. PST

Im waiting to get more in stock, because I think when I release the rotor set there's going to be a run on the kits.

Bob Runnicles06 Aug 2014 7:01 a.m. PST

I would say so lol.
