"The Warlord provides a mobile armored command vehicle for Cobra battlefield leaders. Based on the Maggot artillery system, the Warlord has excellent terrain going capabilities and protects its valuable and highly trained crew against incoming fire up to and including 30mm cannon shells. The tractor unit has a driver and commander, while the rear command unit seats three battlefield tacticians."
Cobra's battlefield HQ vehicle needs more space in the back than I could fit into a HISS tank, so I went with the Maggot chassis as a base. The Warlord carries a small radar as well as lots of computers and communications equipment, allowing whichever Cobra officer is in charge on the ground to deploy and coordinate all their assets, while keeping up with all their forces. Bonus point to any sharp-eyed ARAH comic fans who can make a guess at what inspired the details on top of the command unit.

Great looking vehicle Stormgard, it fits in well with the rest of your Maggot style artillery. I'm probably way off but the top of the command unit looks like some type of field bunker with a radar dish and what appears to be a hatch.

You could make a not-Lego version using a Maggot front and a modified Mobile Batter Bunker. That's what I thought this was at a first glance!
Nice work! |
