  1. It's common to add names like "Koenig" (or other terms) to things to show an improved model. Since the VB-6 is a variable Monster, it's thus the "Koenig Monster", meaning "King Monster." That's all it is. It's like in World War II, the PzKpfw VI Tiger I tank was replaced by the PzKpfw VI Tiger II (nicknamed Königstiger).

    Incorrect. Learn German Koenig Means King or Royal. The Tiger II aka King or Royal Tiger was a whole new machine inside and out.

    Here is complete History and developemt from Achtung Panzer website

  2. Try doing this in Photoshop, it'll make your colorings look 100% better.

    Put your lineart on the top layer. Set the Blending option to "Multiply". This will make the blacks stay black but the white transperant.

    Make a second layer and put that underneath your lineart layer. Use the marquee select tool to add in blocks of colors in this layer.

    Now you're coloring in Photoshop without having to redo lines over and over again :)

    Actually I just use the paint bucket tool mostly

  4. Hmmmmmmmmmm nice choice but remember a star ship is minus -10 to hit Valkries. and against that thing the squadron would first fire off a volley of 5 RMS-2's from each Armored VTF that would be...on average...lets say...3 on a d6 so that would be 9x1000+ 9,000 mdc x 5 = 40,000 mdc x 5 armor units firing...=200,000 mdc = BOOM no more ship since even a Zent Flag ship has a total of 33,000 forward 1/3 33,000 mid ships 1/3 and 36,000 aft 1/3. for a total of 102,000 mdc. Ok next victim? LOL

    But seriously these units were simply ment as Ship killers. BTW here is a newer and Updated version of the VTF. there are minor changes

  5. Here's my two cents about the VTF-2SS-U...

    This is the kind of stuff I imagine gets produced by raw, hungry, imaginative engineers at then gets widled down to size by the finance branch of the munitions company as well as laughed at by trained, experienced pilots who immediately intone about how "all that extra junk" would be useless in combat...

    In fact- it kind of reminds me of the Empire, in Star Wars, which seemed to be hell bent on the idea of building huge, practically static or at best extremely slow, weapons of mass destruction that took a long time to float up to their target before firing their short-range melee attack which, granted, was devastating, but - once you knew the weapon existed and was lumbering around out there - it really wasn't a problem to devise a counter-measure...

    I don't see how this Mech can be an effective star ship boarder - unless "close range combat" with Zendradi means doing what the destroids did in the Dadelus Attack melee - but then why have a lumbering Valkyrie do this?

    All in all - I'm an opponent of over-armored Valkyries because I believe that Destroids are built to be armored attack units meant to serve as artilery and close-range high destructive force release vehicles, while Valkyrie are meant to be arial combat machines with the capacity for space/underwater operations in different agile, versatile configurations...

    VFTF1

    Yes but remember In Macross II destroids are used Planetside and not in space. this unit is ment for space operations...Remember this is FOR MACROSS II in 2089, not Macross in the early 2000's

  6. I'll do my best, but my gang would pound your slow moving beast with dozens of missiles and hundreds of rounds of 55mm loving from several different directions.... :p;) You see I never fly without my wingmen... B))

    Actually you and your wingmen would be facin 5 of these and with their CCs. since each unit could see what the others see giving them 360 degrees of vision your squad would still be toats. It's simple... two would counter launch mini and micor missiles in intercept to your missiles, and the other three would open up on you at 10,000 feet with short bursts from their dual 2F-SS super heavy coil gunpods and shred your fighters.
