This is my Rebel Angel fan fiction collection of customs. Each one has a story per link below.
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...lance858a.html My Joeverse Summary - 200-300 years in the future, Cobra, a ancient secret society whose list of historic leaders/Cobra Commanders include Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Ghengis Khan, and Hitler, finally succeed in taking over the world through the massive use of nukes. Survivors of that nuclear holocaust find themselves cast into a future dark age under fuedal law with Cobra dominating every aspect of their lives. It's a high tech cyber punk industrial wasteland world. For those who choose not to live as a subject of Cobra, their only choice is to escape into the Badlands, vast areas of nearly uninhabitable wasteland, where they live as outlaws, bandits, pirates, and or freedom fighters. Create your own band of outlaws/freedom fighters/mercenaries/pirates or your own Cobra strike force for this world! You can even have your own Sector, name it Sector WHATEVER YOU WANT, or you can be a Cobra Noble with your own land to rule. Rule it however you want. Create fantastic background stories and post away! Choose your side and let the creative juices flow! More pics here: https://picasaweb.google.com/1041224...lMightyDestro#

Part 131: Prometheus Burning
"For the grateful father and his glorious struggle, honor in blood, and the Iron Grenadiers." These are the words every Iron Grenadier swears his allegiance to Mighty Destro. His Royal Majesty, the Lord of Lords, King Mighty Destro has arrived in the Iron Grenadiers flagship, the IGS (Iron Grenadiers Ship) Bahamut, and he intends to envelope his enemies in ruin. During its construction, the mighty IGS Bahamut showed no signs of becoming what it is today. Like all Cobra factions, the Lands of Destro had to adhere to strict limitations from the Cobra United World Government (“UWG”) regarding the construction of battle cruisers. This was the UWG’s way of limiting an arms race among the different Cobra factions. So during construction, the IGS Bahamut began as 2 different Ticonderoga class sister ships. Mighty Destro even allowed UWG inspection teams to confirm that these battle cruisers did not violate the arms treaty. The UWG never suspected that these ships were intended to become one massive air battle cruiser. It wasn’t until the last moment before completion that Destro’s intentions became apparent. When they were near completion, the 2 supposed sister ships were combined into one. The result was a floating gun platform that was nearly twice the size and had twice the destructive power of the next largest ship in existence, the HMS Alexander, her Royal Highest, the Baroness’s flagship. The HMS Alexander was the national symbol of pride for the Cobra Immortals’ (Cobra faction fanatically loyal to the Baroness) and the IGS Bahamut was designed with the single purpose of destroying it. And today, both the IGS Bahamut and the HMS Alexander arrived at Prometheus (Cobra Commader’s secret nuclear warhead facility, it was disguised as nothing more than a refinery colony beyond the frontier near the Badlands of Sector 858A). They burst from the clouds with their anti-gravity engines roaring. The Bahamut hovered far from the range of the massive defensive guns placed all throughout Prometheus. Field Marshall Collin O’Hara, codename the Matador (the eldest and last surviving son of the O’Hara clan and the brother of the Rebel Angels leader, Shana O’Hara), was in charge of all Cobra forces defending Prometheus. He ordered the Alexander to remain near the city where the massive guns in place around the city could support the Alexander during the inevitable battle to come. Field Marshall Collin O'Hara below: But the Baroness flatly refused. She appeared intent to face off with the Bahamut alone. To the Cobra Immortals, it appeared to be a matter of pride. They refused to cowardly remain within the range of Prometheus’s defensive screen. If the Bahamut didn’t come to them, they would go to it. Field Marshall O’Hara – “Your Majesty, this is suicidal. The Bahamut has nearly twice the firepower as you do. If we lose the Alexander, we lose Prometheus and all of Sector 858A to Destro! You cannot engage Destro on his terms! We must hold our position until Cobra Commander’s Viper SS (State Security) arrive to reinforce us.” The Baroness – “I don’t expect you to understand the honor of the Immortals. We will face Destro and we will be victorious. You can either support us, or stand aside.” This was the first time the Matador heard the voice of the Royalty. Before this, today’s Baroness had not made a public appearance. She was raised and trained in the secret traditions behind the veil of the Cobra Immortals. The Baroness was the last known direct descendant of the first Great Cobra Commander, Alexander the Great. And since the reemergence of the Cobra Immortals (sworn protectors of Alexander the Great’s bloodline), each Baroness (cloned from the original Baroness who lived and fought during the second world war of the twentieth century), generation after generation, was raised in the traditions of the Immortals and declared a Demigod due to her royal bloodline and lineage to Alexander the Great. To hear her voice or gaze upon her face was considered a great honor. But to the Matador, her voice was one of foolishness. The Matador immediately realized that the Baroness was blinded by foolish pride undoubtedly instilled in her by the Immortals and their belief that she came from some Godly providence and would lead them to glory. The Matador knew that the Baroness could not be reasoned with. And as he stood in their underground command bunker, the Alexander was already advancing overhead towards the Bahamut. From above ground, the Royal Crimson Guard Dragoons, entrenched to defend Prometheus, saw the gleaming white ship pass over them headed for a collision of unprecedented destruction. These troopers have never witnessed an air battle with such potential for devastation. The Matador immediately ordered fire control to target and launch their long range missiles at the Bahamut. He knew that the Bahamut’s electronic counter measures and defensive screen would knock his missiles from the sky, but at least it would serve as a distraction and allow the Alexander to close on the Bahamut and fire its guns. Fire Control immediately launched a volley of missiles. The televipers gave an exact account of what ensued next as the Alexander came closer and closer within range of its guns to fire on the Bahamut. Televiper – “Range: 157 miles, target locked, battery 1, 2, and 3 firing, estimated time before impact, 11 minutes, 30 seconds. Estimated time until the Alexander is in range to engage the Bahamut, 15 minutes 20 seconds (by now, the Alexander was far from Promethues, almost in range of its guns, the missiles travel a hell of a lot faster).” There was nothing left to do but wait. It was the waiting that tortured the Matador most. Deep underground in his command bunker, he worried that this could be the death of one of Cobra’s most sacred leaders, the Baroness. Most of the population under the Cobra flag nearly worshiped her as a living God. Without the Baroness as a symbol of Cobra’s divinity, their authority may be challenged. It would be years before the next cloned Baroness would come of age and complete her training to take her place as ruler of the Immortals. This would allow all the rebel freedom fighters the time they needed to gather even more supporters. But these were long term concerns. For now, Collin O’Hara realized that he needed to focus on the immediate battle. The Televipers continued their account of the battle as Collin O’Hara focused on the monitors. Televiper – “Range: 50 miles, estimated time before impact, 3 minutes, 30 seconds (THE MATH WORKS!).” The timing of the missile launch was perfect. The estimated impact was just about the same time the Alexander came into range to fire its guns upon the Bahamut. But just as Collin O’Hara predicted, the Bahamut’s electronic counter measures and defensive screen knocked the missiles from the sky. And now, all there was left to do was to watch the Alexander’s battle. The Matador’s heart pounded as he watched the monitors. The entire command bunker fell completely silent as all eyes were on the monitors. You could cut the tension in the air with a knife. Field Marshall O’Hara thought this was the moment that would change the course of history. This would be the first large scale battle in the first large scale war to be declared since Cobra had taken over the world. Until now, only limited skirmishes were fought over minor territorial disputes between the Cobra factions. And now, fate had determined that he would stand guard on the cusp of history. He stood over the large battle field monitor and watched as the Alexander approached closer and closer until it was finally in range. The single moment in which the Alexander finally passed the demarcation of range seemed to take an eternity to pass. And what came next shook him to his core. He was horrified at what he saw. His heart and spirit sank into the basement of his soul. His morale sank lower than it had ever been before. He suddenly doubted the survivability of all his forces in Prometheus. He realized immediately what he should’ve known all along. But it wasn't really what he saw that horrified him so much. What horrified him was what he didn’t see. He expected to see massive explosions at 10,000 feet. But there was nothing. Not a single shot was fired between the 2 massive ships. Instead, the Alexander turned towards Prometheus and began heading back. Collin O’Hara immediately picked up the direct line to the Great Cobra Commander and with a somber voice, he said to the Great Cobra Commander, “Betrayal . . . The Baroness is in league with Destro.” It was now evident that the Bahamut and the Alexander were alongside with one another and on an assault course with Prometheus. They would be in range within just minutes. Collin O’Hara then turned to Major Natasha Belov, codename the Rain Spider, of the Royal Crimson Guard Dragoons. Major Natasha Belov, codename the Rain Spider below: He ordered, “Release Captain Shana O’Hara (M.I.A. from the Rebel Angels since their famous charge on Prometheus), allow her to rejoin her forces trapped in the city, deliver to them as many nuclear warheads as you can, escort them to the edge of the city and tell them to take the warheads into the Badlands to keep them out of the hands of Destro and the Baroness. The fate of the world may now be in the hands of the Rebel Angels. We will stand our ground here to the last man and burn to ashes with Prometheus. Destro is calculating indeed.” Captain Shana O'Hara, codename Scarlett, below (she's still alive!!!!!): Enjoy pics.

that is one of the most original Destro designs I've seen. have no idea what you used for his tassels and arm band but it looks really awesome. the sash and extra shoulder armor really push him over the edge. |
