Tanker's Tuesday: OGRE Mk III A1







The Ogre Mark III cybertank was the first Combine cybertank built
in an articulated fashion. The rear module was for holding and
servicing the two Ogre missiles, as well as carrying additional
detection and  jamming gear.

The Mark III was purpose built for long ranged fire, and could not
deal with close up fighting; only the blazing speed of the computer
brain coupled with well built machinery could the Ogre be quick
enough to identify and destroy threats before they got close.

Paneuropean forces seized the Sheffield, England Ogre factory intact
and managed to build Ogres for their own armies. Paneuropean
Mark IIIs were designated the Legionnaire.
































 Note: The OGRE MkIIIA1 has 4 External Missiles

Tanker's Tuesday: They Were On Drugs!


http://www.forgedinbattle.com/product_info.php?products_id=209

I know we've talked about this one before but, the madness of this idea has
made me do a few (what if) mental scenarios.
********************************************* 
One: how many M4 Shermans or T34s would it take to kill this beast?
*********************************************
Two: What would the MTO or what other vehicles and support elements 
would attached to a Landkreuzer Ratte unit?
*********************************************
Three: How many of these things could have been built, I'd say two
maximum.
*********************************************
Four; and most important of all, why doesn't
Don already have one? ;-)

15mm Ogre Command Team





The idea came from our games of over a decade ago to give the
Cybernetic Ogre an override command vehicle, these started out
on a tank chassis but over time grew!

Orc Ogre






















Although this beast started out life as a Steam Powered Land-ship

for my VSF Germans on Mars, I thought it would work as an Orc

version of an Ogre...well at least they got the size about right!

OGRE Bash


Complexity: Moderate

It was another lonely, chilly night for the outpost observers. The stars were shining brightly in the near-twilight sky, but Sgt. Zigg had no eyes for them. Instead, he was concentrating, worried about the telefax he had just received.

"Sir, I think you'd better come look at this," called Pvt. Zanichelli. Zigg did not move.

"Sir?"

Zigg looked up and attempted to cover the concern in his eyes. He had a feeling...

"Sir, the seismometers are picking up some odd things. I'm not sure, sir, but it seems that there is a whole lotta something coming our way...but it's coming from two directions," the private reported.

"Send a drone," replied Zigg, absently. He knew what it would find.

"To which area?" asked Pvt. Kutner.

"What?"

Tristan's Ogre & GEV Page



There’s no doubt – the Steve Jackson game OGRE,
and it’s sequel, GEV, have to be ranked among the
top wargames of all time. I first played them as a
teenager, and I rediscovered Ogre after finding it on
the web in late 2004. All these years later and I’m
enjoying the game more than I ever have.
Interesting naval interface to the rules as well as
OGRE On Mars!

Ogre Mk. IV


In 2074, the Combine was flush with the success of the largest cybertank to date, the Ogre Mk. III. Designers were tasked with building a bigger, better Ogre. Rather than build one unit to do everything, they designed two: the Mk. V for short-range, high-intensity exchanges, and the Mk. IV for fast strike, long-range power.

The Ogre Mk. IV carries a single main gun, and a pair of secondaries. However, its primary weapons are the three missile racks mounted in the rear, loaded with 5 missiles each. In addition, it moves faster than any other unit, short of a GEV . A certain amount of durability was sacrificed to achieve such speeds though; this cybertank has only 56 tread units.
