This is the current resource vote box. The Nemean Sheep has the most votes, but more than half of the players are voting for something else, so I see why he chose not to roll with it yet.

Damnit! I want my ancient old school geatvrays now.

As for vehicle I had the land master.

If the kinetic wool stuff is honestly a thing had idea for a tank called the Mammoth ( joke, get it?)

Quote from: Hunter Armoured Hover Car
The hunter armoured car is a light armoured vehicle intended to support our troops in the field by providing mobile fire support. It uses a caelium core to allow it to hover. It also incorporates caelium powder in the metal to reduce the weight. Propulsion is provided by two internal turbines that suck air in and accelerates it out the back of the vehicle. The second turbine is for redundancy and means failure or damage to one turbine will not cripple the vehicle. The turbines are turned by a promethium engine. It is an inline engine that has been retooled to use promethium as a fuel source. Power from this engine is also used to power the core. The intakes for the turbines should include a filter mesh to prevent foreign objects from being sucked in. Two rudders should be placed at the output of the internal turbines so the air flowing out of the system passes over them with a third larger main rudder placed centrally at the back. Most of its armour is front facing, sloped and should be tested to resist small arms fire and machinegun fire. It mounts a scythe machinegun (without caelium carrying support) in an enclosed and armoured turret at the top of the vehicle.
I know we don't have promethium/Gavrilium just yet but that'll only mean it'll have a [complex] tag till we get some and I want to avoid using oil at all. Better just to build up our ore and special resources, so we can build bigger stuff.

We have until the end of this design phase to choose our resource, at which point the one with the most votes gets in. We can still submit designs which use that resource though.

I wanted to make sure both teams had time to discuss and work on their resource, so the resource vote isn't being locked in until the end of this phase. If the team is decided on the resource however then you can use it in designs this phase.

In that case.

The Wooly Mammoth

A new fangled Land Ship met to soak up fire power and return it to the enemies.  By putting layers of kinetic absorbing wool for Ezra protection, looks wooly. Hence the name. Given this is WW1 we currently only have sponson guns. Said guns are large caliber machine guns that are water cooled with network in the tank. The sponsons can move 180 degrees in firing field and go up and down. There is a five man crew. Driver, Commander, two gun operators and a mechanic onboard.

It mainly gets around by large armored tracked thread things.

Caelium reactor in attempt to make it move a bit faster via hovering with a secondary motor as the “heart” of the machine. In time to come May have hover craft platforms or honest to goodness WW2 tanks. But yeah though of a WW1 tank with a nickname that means something.

ARA 1902RAD "Courier man"
The courier man radio is a rather large radio, created to enable commanders on the frontlines to communicate with the high command.
This radio is a massive breakthrough, capable of sending a persons voice, miles on miles and enabling communication. The courier man is bulky, immobile and a rather large pain to deploy due to its state of the art electronics. However, it is a lifesaver for military officers with the ability to communicate.
The courier man is designed to be transportable within the "Faithful" so that it can be deployed where ever static fortifications are to be created.


Heres a basic radio, skipping the radiotelegraph and the era of morse code.
Potential upgrades include the ability to be used from the back of the truck or a promethium burning generator to help provide the power to use it rather easily so it doesn't take up lots of generator power from whatever else.
I'm personally feeling like going with the faithful truck(logistics, rather cheap, faster deployment for infantry and it has a machinegun mount) and the radio for the non-combat infantry support.

For the design+research credit, I think we need an anti-armour gun (The first rumor mentions vehicles). I have a basic idea in my head already for when we get to that phase.

May as well get everything in line. Also, as a clarification for my truck, the MP stands for motor pool.

A basic truck is a good base to build off of as our First vehicle. Cheap (for our first vehicle), can carry infantry, can carry supplies, can mount of scythe.

But make the truck more than a 4-cylinder. At least 8.

It's a cheap transport meant to act as an opener for our experience with vehicles. Four cylinders makes perfect sense there.
