Hovertrucks

Some noncombatant hovertrucks from Steve Jackson Games for use as targets objectives in games of Ogre/GEV or other sci-fi combat.
I have a few more of these, along with some other transports, in a different paint scheme that I will show you later.

Meanwhile, I hope everyone is staying safe and working on minis.

    Hovertrucks are indeed a target/objective, but GEV-PCs are, in my opinion, one of the most underrated vehicles in the game. I always take a bunch, and invariably my infantry over-performs beyond what the point cost would imply.

    Interesting. What sort of scenarios do you play? I'm planning on using these in various battles for Monopolis.

    I tend to stay away from scenarios in the books. I either do straight point-value games (each side has the same number of points' worth of troops) or my own objective scenarios. The objective scenarios are, frankly, more of an excuse to show off models I get in or close to 1:300 scale, like submarines or rockets on gantries and the like. Here's a report on one I ran at a con a few years ago...

    I remember that scenario! Impressive model. I like to run asymmetrical battles with different (sometimes hidden) objectives for each side.
