Ogre Mk Vc 3D model
Merry Christmas!
Because everyone needs their own Ogre... I like the concept of the old Martian Metals Ogre Mk V (Vb?), and the "original" Mk VI rear hull... Soooooooo... (please forgive that I've never been a big fan of the way Ogre secondaries are represented). Anyway, my idea for a Mk Vb. Or Vc. Lo-res original model: View Ogre Mk Vc in 3D Ogre Mk Vc gray perspective Ogre Mk Vc colored front perspective Ogre Mk Vc colored rear perspective New hi-res model: (43MB, might not load) Ogre Mk Vc on Sketchfab Ogre Mk Vc on p3d Last edited by Chopper Dave; 12-29-2018 at 01:56 AM.

Re: Ogre Mk Vb
I would post some screen caps but I can't figure out how to get the image tags to work. The link goes to p3d and opens up a model viewer in the browser.
It's still WIP. The biggest thing it needs is detailed treads... And I'll get to that soon enough. Any comments or criticisms are welcome. |

Re: Ogre Mk Vb
I like it. May have to try it in a game soon.

Re: Ogre Mk Vb
Thank you both
The first post will always have the most recent model link. 191.33 pts on the Cobb Calculator. Needs to have 4 external missiles to be 51.14% effective vs stock Mk V? So this is an inefficient design... (186.33 pts and 38.7% vs Mk V if only 3 external missiles, even worse) 2 Missile Racks Def 4 oo 10 Int. Missiles Atk 6 Rng 5 ooooo ooooo 4 Ext. Missiles Atk 6 Rng 5 Def 3 oooo 2 Main Battery Atk 4 Rng 3 Def 4 oo 6 Secondary Battery Atk 3 Rng 2 Def 3 ooo ooo 14 Antipersonnel Atk 1 Rng 1 Def 1 ooooo ooooo oooo 60 tread units. Move starts at 3 ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo 2 ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo 1 ooooo ooooo ooooo ooooo 0 |

Racks are tougher, and permit far higher total missile counts...an Ogre with them that can keep its opponents at stand-off ranges is extremely dangerous (see also: Mk.IV)...but is easier to overwhelm, because whether it has 2 missiles or 20 it can only fire [# racks] missiles per turn. Tubes on the other hand are easier to destroy and far more limited in number, but you have to peel every single one off the SOB individually...and a sufficiently threatened Ogre can dump its entire payload thereof in a single turn if it feels the need to.

Re: Ogre Mk Vb
I get that and appreciate the commentary. In some ways I'm glad of it's inefficiency. I generally think that official designs should be the best (and they've obviously been the most play-tested) and the designer can make better use of in-universe information. Fans tend to not take that into account, opting instead for optimized designs. The Cobb calculator seems to do a pretty decent job, regardless.
At the moment, I'm considering it being 68-72 tread, and 4 Move. It's obviously Mk VI treads... And meant to carry that load... But it has a Mk V primary chassis and Mk IV or Mk V secondary chassis... Noticeably less mass to move around. That puts its cost in the 201 - 241 range, and I'm OK with that. I did a bunch more modeling. And the paneling to the treads, which was super easy (I'm a lousy modeler, so I'm always pleased with my results lol). I added wheels... Which is why I haven't updated the link. There's 500 wheels... Which killed my polygon count and made for a prohibitively large file size. I need to go back and optimize them and maybe cheat on the inner wheels lol. Hopefully tomorrow. |
