Big Sal Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) Location: G02 Freegate Tags: Land vehicle, spying Note to judges: The spaceship is from a previous build and shouldn't be judged Previously... Somewhere in M.A.N.T.I.S. deep space: ... a bounty on the both of them. 20 credits alive and 50 credits dead. The spy will insist that he is the real Big Sal. Don't believe him no matter how convincing he is. Remember shoot first and don't ask questions! Goodnight..... Only 50 credits?! That's just insulting. Nevertheless, we can't stay in M.A.N.T.I.S. space. Someone will catch us eventually. Yeah... I have some... contacts... in Octan. Maybe we should hide out in their territory until we figure something out. Ok, but I need to be able to contact my people in M.A.N.T.I.S., assuming they're still loyal. I know of a remote Octan radar station on Freegate. If we can hack it, we should be able to bounce our comms through it and stay in contact with MANTIS space wherever we are in Octan space. That would be a good idea... if the M.A.N.T.I.S. fleet weren't currently in orbit around Freegate. Relax Long! I told you, this ship is theoretically completely undetectable! We'll fly right past them! I can't believe that worked. I told you! Completely undetectable! If that's true, why didn't we land next to the radar instead of at the bottom of the mountain? Err... never hurts to be careful... So you decided it was safer for us to freeze to death riding the world's slowest lift to the top instead? Much safer! There's far less chance of anyone detecting us this way. I mean, it's not as if this dumb robot is going to tell anyone about us, right? ... ... ... I feel like that was unnecessary... Finally! That took forever. It's getting dark already. Well, how was I supposed to know it had legs?! I thought it would just be at the top of the lift! There, I've attached our comms device and hacked it into their systems. At last. I hope you know how to make the lift work without that robot... Thanks for reading! C&C welcome!

Professor Thaum Posted October 23, 2016 The hacking com device with the scanner is a good idea. The lift is a great built especially with the caterpillar track on the cliff. The robot's fate made me laugh the prof would have had the same reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rodiziorobs Posted October 27, 2016 Looks like Octan has done well converting old Explorien tech. High fives to you for making some of the most awkward (but cool) pieces from that era look seamless. I wondered what Sal would do when the bounty order went out... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodan Black Posted October 27, 2016 The scene on the lift with the robot was awesome. Love the storyline! Can't wait to see where it goes. Should you need a new corporate home, we here at Octan are always waiting with open arms. Octan - "The Friendly Corporation!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boxerlego Posted October 28, 2016 Excellent build. I like the seasonal effect for the build, Feels like I'm out in the cold. Also the picture effect with the robot falling, Looks perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
