Chill, that is one wicked lookin' war walker!

- a very impressed soldier

ooc: where did you get the pic from. Appears to have some sort of RPG origins, possible Japanese related (ie, anime, PS game, etc)

And at over 400 mph, can that thing fly.....erm.....run. A misplaced decimal point maybe?

Wow, quite impressive. How'd you find it? I waste countless hours scouring the web for stuff, and yet I always come up empty handed. Perhaps you can guide me. I have a particular item that I'm looking for, check TGs plz.

:shock:

Anyway:

- What is the BDI?

- Isn't that Walker extremely vulnerable on the flanks and rear? Doesn't look like the weapons can rotate much, save for that machine gun on the chin.

It looks more like an artillery platform than an MBT-alike, so you'd be sticking it behind the front line where it would be unlikely to face a direct attack, I'd assume.

OK I'm fuzzy. Thanks for the explanation.

But what is the BDI?

OOC: BDI = Black Diamond Initiative. Also known as Nations Against Terrorism Organization, or smth. :?
Created by Ruhr.

The BDI was once NATO. The BDI is made of good RPers. We have such members as Ruhr and Amerigo.

(Also I changed it WAP-1. It was very late when I made that, and was very tired.)
