My name is Capt. Cooper Anderson. I am Captain of a 100 year old nuclear powered submarine the R.T.S. Virginia that is as my Grandpa used to say is held together with bailing wire and spit. Even as old as she is she can still make 25 knots under water. The Virginia is currently on a survey/recon mission up the eastern seaboard of North America. As we came near to what's left of New York City we began to receive a comm signal comming from old Fort Dix. It doesn't sound like it's automated. I have sent a recon team from Bravo company 4th Infantry to check it out. If there are real people there the power suits those guys wear will probably scare the hell out of them. The did me.

I thought I would start the ball rolling and start a build. I have got a hold of some those sf3d power suit figures in 1/35 scale and thought I could make a neat little scene of them moving through some urban rubble.

Re: R.O.T. RECON"THE TROOPS HAVE LANDED"

Well my little armored suit dudes arrived today and they are neat looking. They are pre-painted and have different arms you can use. They are really like action figures, but there is room for detailing and naturally I will repaint them and make them R.O.T. troopers. I will upload some pictures tomorrow of them before painting begins.
