1st Royal Cavaliers

 o/

Conformity is not a requirement for membership.

Why yes, I did need yet another faction to add to my ever growing list of miniscule armies. The Fed Suns' 1st Royal Cavaliers were chosen more or less on a whim. Their color scheme is red & grey applied however the Mechwarrior/vehicle crew prefers. Thus their varied appearance. Prior to inking the color scheme looked so flat that I was contemplating stripping them and doing something else. Luckily my AK streaking grime saved the day! 

Much like the Dragon in the DCMS, I don't think you can have a proper force in the Federated Suns without at least one Enforcer included.

The new Jagermech sculpt looks pretty good. Luckily this unit was created during the civil war, all but guaranteeing that I'll be fielding this as one of the upgraded variants.

The Fed Suns have some fun variants of my beloved Urbanmech. The MRM equipped R-68, UAC-10 toting R-69 and the one that I am most excited to try out, the RAC-5 armed R-70. Sure they have the base model R-60 as well, but I think at the least (unless I'm really scraping for points) the canon armed Urbie below will be an R-90 Suburbanmech at the very least. 

The scuffed up, 40k caution stripe decal came out really well I think.  

I'm quite certain that the building on the base was destroyed long before this R-68 knelt down on it.

I love the pose on this mini!

I'm thinking that this lance will get a second one to go with it (possibly some armor). Given the era, I am thinking that the 2nd lance may include a salvaged clan mech as well.
