BOT WAR
Bot War is a 10mm skirmish wargame played on a 3'x3' table. While the scale is 10mm, Bots and other creatures range from 20mm for the smallest Bot to 140mm for the huge combined Bots. The story takes place on an alternate Earth and revolves around two main protagonists: The Democracy, a reflection of 1980s USA, and Atlantica, an underwater kingdom inspired by Atlantis. There are 10 different factions and the game opens after a major, devastating war between The Democracy and Atlantica in which the arrival of Bots saved the Democracy from destruction and slavery. Welcome to Bot War!
DEMOCRACY
Despite the Democracy's three year alliance with the Valiants, they still distrust Bot technology. The Democracy forces are made up of highly trained specialists working as a tight-knit team. They excel in stealth tactics and guerrilla warfare. They rely on regular tanks, helicopters, and other traditional military equipment to do any heavy lifting that is required. The Democracy has perfected this method of war to the point that they can now hold their own against enemy bot forces.
ITEM DESCRIPTION
John Burton and his sidekick Wong Li were born ready. Not long after the initial Atlantican invasion, the pair and their big rig were involved in an incident with Atlantican ground infantry forces. This resulted in an explosion that took out an entire city block ( along with almost a full city garrison of Atlantican troops). John talks a good fight but for the most part despite his obvious bravado, he isn't too bright. Wong however knows a thing or too but doesnt have the words of the mighty John Burton. Together the two make a great team. Wong with the intelligence and fighting ability and John with the brave talk and cutting insults. Regardless, it seems that Wong prefers to let John do the talking and run the show.
After destroying the garrison the two joined the larger resistance where they joined up with Max Starr's group toward the end of the war. At first John and Wong refused to join Special Branch. John going back to truck driving and Wong opening a fruit and veg shop in Chinatown. However, fate was not to be so easily thwarted. John barely survived his new truck being devoured by the Infester Termite, and Wong's fruit and veg shop was stepped on by Kroar when the Deceivers attacked a nearby physics lab. Now both are teamed up again, piloting Convoy. Convoy is a fully mobile land and air battleship. Able to change from truck and trailer into a full flight armoured battleship, Convoy is the ultimate heavy weapon for Special Branch. The rig is also able to transport Nighthawk, Freedom Eagle, or Airblade directly into combat, launching them into the fight from its trailer. Convoy is bristling with high tech weaponry sporting 2 front-mounted cannons, top-mounted gatling cannons, and 4 sponson-mounted gatling guns.
This set comes with enough parts to make Convoy. This is a resin multipart kit. Superglue required for assembly (not included). This set comes with 1 x 40mm round black plastic base and 1 flight stand. Models supplied unassembled and unpainted.
