An Okytus-Venator armed in the “Mangonel” pattern from the Aphyrion Forges advance across the rad wastes of Mezoa. The Okytus pattern is analogous with the more esoteric Onager Dunecrawler STC variants. The Okytus patterns rely on more traditional tracks for motive power compared to the intricate multi-limbed Dunecrawlers.
These venerable Okytus patterns are rare in the extreme but Mezoan forces revere and maintain them in small numbers. As a matter of honour they utilise them most commonly in service to the Knights of House Hermetika where their ancient battle spirits and stoic tracks grind forth as implacably as the Knights they accompany.
The two tanks ive shared recently are 3D prints from the mind of the great forgesmith Aphyrion (and can be found here: https://www.cgtrader.com/aphyrion )
When fielded I use them as Dunecrawlers to fit alongside the hoplites in their Dunerider equivalent Okytus transports. To build the models we’re spot on. Everything pretty much slots together with very little effort, well designed and well laid out. Can’t recommend the models enough.
