shammond42 posted on the forums that his CAV fansite, The CAV Command Console has a real URL now.

Read his post for the rest of the details.

After a long, long wait, the X-CAV 2 is almost finally here! Now known as the Hughes-Marrietta Crusader and fielded by the Templars, this recon CAV is a lean, mean, fighting machine. The Crusader was designed by Blitz and fleshed out by Jeremy during our 2nd X-CAV contest several years ago as the Corvus. It won't be very long before we'll all be able to own our own little piece of Mil-Net and CAV history.

Released at the same time will be the KODA Works Kraken gunship. Another of the "True Scale" gunships, the Kraken's GC packs quite a punch and can carry up to 2 rifle teams to boot.

Who doesn't like birthday parties? You get to eat some cake, open a few presents, eat your favorite meal, maybe drink a few too many Shinerbocks, and of course you can't skip out of work early because your boss has decided to schedule your montly team meeting that afternoon. But I digress!

Well this Thursday, April 2nd, is my birthday and I'm going to throw a party for myself, right here at Mil-Net. I feel like switching things around though so I think I'll give you guys a few presents. So check back in 3 days to find out what's up!

First, we have a few new OPTIONAL rules for you to play with. These new rules are geared toward vehicles and gunships, and offer a few new capabilities for these often overlooked units. These rules are still in beta, so feedback is much appreciated. Check out the rules here.

Second, Steve "shammond42" Hammond created a great little how-to guide for building your own King Cougar, one of the new units found in the War For Sale sourcebook. Check out the guide here.

And finally, Steve's How-To guide and Sgt. Crunch's Estrang "Nyuleoon" Duvork which he posted on the forums got me to thinking. So today I'm going to announce another Mil-Net Contest. The Mil-Net Personality/Variant conversion contest. Details are here.
