". . . we call it the Last War, not because it was mankind's final battle, but because the world which started the war no longer existed by its close. It lasted forty years, and it saw the destruction of four mighty empires. Two generations never knew a world without conflict; few were not personally touched by its ravages, and fewer still remembered a world without Ogres . . ." – from "After the Long Winter: Roots of the New World" University of Melbourne, 2250

New Combine Units

Another article from the old site relocated here, this time by Warner Airey whom I recently got back into contact with after 20 years or so. 

Warner and I first started corresponding when OGRE Miniatures was first released, so its great to be chatting once again!


New Combine Units
by Warner Airey
LT TNK-B
Attack/Range: 1/3 M3 TNK
D2 Size:1 VP: 3
Variant Light Tank used both as a scout and a cheap defensive unit. Can carry 1 INF squad.


MBT-105
Attack/Range: 3/3 M3 TNK
D3 Size: 3 VP: 6
The "105", is a formidable tank. Similar size and appearance as a heavy, but cannot handle tough terrain. Mobility type is only TNK so cannot perform the same tasks as the heavies. Can carry 1 INF squad.


HVY TNK-B
Attack/Range: 3/2 M3 HVY
D4 Size: 3 VP: 6
A modified version of the standard HVY TNK. Can carry 1 INF squad.


GEV-TD
Attack/Range: 4/2 M4/3 GEV
D1 Size: 2 VP: 6
Upgunned GEV Lightly armoured Tank Destroyer. Packs the same punch as a heavy tank.


ICEPICK-SHVY
Attack/Range: 3/3 M3 OGR
D4 (Special -1) Size: 5 VP: 12
The Icepick has one 3/3 main and one 1/1AP. In addition to heavy armour, carries virtually every defensive system ever made.
Because of the Icepick’s arrays of point defences and extra electronics, it’s very hard to hit. Subtract 1 from any die roll of any attack made against an Icepick except by infantry in overruns.
Unlike other tanks, the Icepick does not carry Infantry squads during combat as they would clutter its sensors and get shredded by its own Close-In Weapon systems.


Hammerhead HGEV
Attack/Range: 2/3 M3/2 GEV
D3 (Special -1) Size: 3 VP: 12
Combine heavy GEV. Very agile. Very expensive. Includes evolutionary developments of earlier Attack Helicopter, AEGIS and JSF Electronic-Warfare technologies. The ultimate synthesis of hardware add-on's, software upgrades and nanotechnology.
The Hammerhead has an extensive dual sensor array linked.
