Very nice, though they do remind me of something, Blue Monkey anyone!

Very nice, though they do remind me of something, Blue Monkey anyone! H_C Interesting.. You're right there H_C. Mind you.. I thought that only you, Rob and I were the only existing (or should I say currently posting) members to have seen the blue monkey CGI clip as the BM site has been down for nearly a year. It's those 'fairings' or 'spoilers' on the leg joint that does it. Nice work Atlantis.

I can't remember who posted this pic, but i got it from this forum a while back. To me it's the best depiction of a Tripod i've seen. Note how it has a tentacle to mount the Heat Ray, which makes sense since it can point it in any direction without turning around. It's much better than having a fixed point for the weapon which would force the Tripod to turn towards the Target and only focus on that target. Not to mention having a fixed point for the Heat Ray limits where it can shoot. Nicely contrasts a Tank since a Tank can 'shoot & go'' too.

I think that Tripod design is the most practical as well as visually excellent.
