From Russia with Love - AlbinoRaven Miniatures.

Last I talked about the "I had these ages draw", this week a package arrived that I really had forgotten about.

I have been on the look out for a CHAS proxy for the Starship Troopers project for some time, I wanted mine to have a more retro feel than the original model from the Starship Troopers game and spotted these guys on TMP a few months back and figured the Firestorm Heavy mech from Albinoraven Miniatures would do the trick.
 

It makes it perhaps the largest piece on the table and is quiet imposing when compared to the 25mm Infantry from 1st Corps, but it is only armed with two chain cannon's so could still be easily overrun if the bugs can mass enough warriors.

 

I went for a similar scheme to the other Mobile Infantry, here the CHAS is compared to the M9 Chickenhawk.

It's been a while since the Federation took to the table.
This could be just the launch pad they were looking for.
