Five Parsecs: Denis Denis: Landing Craft

Was really inspired to create a Landing Craft this weekend from an old model that had fallen into disrepair. A long time ago I built an Eldar Falcon, when I used to play 40K. Well I came across the battered piece of space junk in a box and thought I know what that could be used as.

So spent hour rebuilding then another repainting/renaming and the result is the Denis Denis Landing Craft. This will feature as terrain in the next game.

There are no rules for vehicles in Five Parsecs at the moment, but I'm not worried, the intention is just to have it as part of the general fluff of the game.










All made from card, green stuff and a base of MDF.  Added a bottle cork to create the stand for under the craft. The only bit am not completely happy with are the vents, but there you go.

    Nice scratch building there :-) Getting the old "Rogue Trader" spirit for sure.

    Yep, have always loved the whole Traveller, Rogue Trader, small crew actions and your rules really grab the background and feel of that genre. Considering making some floor plans for the SS Sulimann next.

      Traveller, RT and Laserburn were the big inspirations gaming-wise :-) Mix in a bit of Firefly, Farscape and Cowboy Bebop and it's a good 'un.

      That's a blast from the past, Laserburn was the first Sci Fi rules I ever had. Blakes 7 is the TV programme that sums it up for me.
