Review - Warmonger MBT (Grav Variant)

Image
From the same order as the Bastion APC comes the Warmonger MBT (more main battle tanks from different producers will follow in the future). Essentially, it is of the same quality as the Bastion, although there is a small residue on the back of turret which was left from the casting process. Nothing too difficult to remove, though.  As the APC it is offered in two variants (tracked and grav). It's much larger than the Bastion, though. RPE was nice enough to sell it with two different types of big guns and a small machine gun. A big plus in my book. One seems to be a conventional gun while the second one fits into the category of plasma firing cannons.

Review - Bastion APC

 Reinforcements have arrived ... finally I would like to add.  Ral Parther Europe has re-released a couple of tanks from the Critical Mass range after many moons of absence. In this case we got the Bastion APC in the grav vehicle version. There is also a tracked one which looks quite nice, too. However, I am more into the sci-fi space magic trope; so here we are. Both versions are very similar to the IRL german Marder IFV in appearance.  The details are excellent. There is some small flash at the bottom from the casting process but nothing that is very obvious. The miniature is made up of the main body (hull) and four metal parts for the turret. The assembly should be very simple and straight forward.
