The First Strike mod team is back today with an update showing off a massive new vehicle in development. Check it out:
You can see the full news post with one more screenshot on the First Strike website.
We are going to try to be a little more regular with our news updates from now on as we start to move forwards again with more momentum towards our next batch of big releases.
Today I want to reveal to you the final finished version of the Jawa Sandcrawler. Sure, you've seen the impressive untextured version of this model in the past, but I think you'll agree the texture and last little bits of polish and additional bells and whistles make all the difference.
The caterpillar tracks have been much improved with additional geometry and texture detailing which will really make them pop out at you when you see them in game. Also the detailing of the interior is now complete, and these images show you just a tantalising glimpse of what is inside. Rest assured you're going to have plenty of fun with this towering behemoth, the tactical applications are limitless, you've basically got a slow moving, but heavily armoured siege tower. When crossing those wide open desert expanses that leave you vulnerable to sniper fire this will become a must have asset. As you can imagine, the fight for command of this invaluable vehicle will be fierce. However the Sandcrawler truly starts to shine when you advance on a dug in enemy position and deploy the loading ramp, giving you access to not just the ground, but balconies, or any tactically advantageous high ground the huge ramp can reach.
Pah, and to think those damned dirty Jawas just use it to haul junk around.
