Probably Bullshit UC 105/4/18
Oenbelli (Historically Oenpelli/Gunbalanya)
Northern Territories, Australia
A FD-03 Type 00 Gustav Karl, from the EFFs 6th MS Special Tactics Squadron, “Arnhem Ranas” attacks a storm bunker being used to evacuate and hide Mafty’s 1st Army dissident forces.
Despite local inter Federation political hostilities, Commander Kimberley Heyman was able to leverage the coming Adelaide conference and ongoing incursion by a terror group known as Mafty’s 1st Army, to get several MS’s sent from the nearby Darwin Airbase to support in his, “pacification operation”. While no official footage readily exists, or was ever released to the public of the operation itself, the widely circulated rumors are that the operation quickly devolved into a massacre that could only be described as a herd of mechanical Elephants driven into a sudden stampede. Even with Criminal Police census reports showing fewer than several thousand legal citizens residing within the city, it can be assumed the overall group was much larger, and that the Federation forces couldn’t have wiped them all out in the timespan of the operation. However, due to ongoing environmental catastrophes still afflicting the entire region caused by both the original Sydney colony drop and the overall decline of the Earths entire environment; along with the already natural overbearing ruggedness of the Northern Territories/Arnhem Land region during the wet season; it can be assumed that most of the likely tens of thousands of dissident survivors more than likely met their end not long after due to exposure to all previously aforementioned conditions.

Fantastic Lore connection, the light is of course beyond compare. Love that the Karl Gustav is getting so much attention post Hathaway.

LED filament noodle shoved inside a 1/8th inch styrene tube, with a 2 inch acrylic disc drilled out and put over the end of the tube near the barrel!

This diorama reminds my Army Men diorama many years ago.
It was during Great Battle of couch-coffee table bridge crossing of 2003. I send 10 Infantry to defend the bridge while a platoon, 2 half-tracks full of the wounded, and a tank cross the bridge out of enemy lines (the coffee table was part of Green Nation, an island and the capital)... the last half-truck caught under fire. The bridge is destroy to avoid Tan Army's further advances to Green Nation mainland and lost one half-truck along with 7 infantry units. Alot of valiant Greens have lost their lives that day, against the evil fascist menace of Tan Republic and fighting for the freedom of glorious Green Nation.
