Celsan Motors, Astholm's first automotive company have some breaking news...

Our new military-spec off-roaders, the Militia S4 and Militia S6 have been launched today.

These are designed only for military use, and not civilian use - these have been specificially made for our Army, who have extensively tested them. However, these are export-only vehicles.

They are available in three- and five-door bodystyles, and are powered by a 3.0-litre V6, a 4.4-litre V8 and a 5.2-litre V8.

Militia S4 models come with the 3.0-litre V6 engine in three-door form, in RS trim level, and the 4.4 V8 engine; the Militia S6 is a five-door version, with the 4.4-litre V8, or the 5.2-litre V8 for the HS trim.

Are our prices way too expensive for most nations?

OOC: For a poor attempt to convert a Chevy Blazer into a military vehicle, yes. A simple jeep is far cheaper and proable more effective than this.

OOC: I used a stock photo since my photoshop skills are awful. It's not a converted Chevy Blazer; if only I was better at graphic design. :tongue:

OOC: You have no HP figures, no speed figures, no dimensions, no weight, no armour protection values, no passenger capacity, no weapons capabilities, no performance data, and no write-up to speak. If you want people to buy them you'll need more than a blurb and a pic. Check out this (http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/hmmwv.htm), and try to incorporate some of the information they list into your design.
