  • Hi :). Sorry for the long wait for a new video.
    This video is a comprehensive list of units that comprised my Lego army / marines over the years. Some of the vehicles / units on this list may be already familiar to you, some maybe be a new site, and some might be a surprise!
    Correction: Churchill tank primary armament: Ordnance QF 75mm gun.

    it was nice seeing those old 2008-2016 vehicles, reminds me of the vehicles and robots I made when I was little, yes the ships from star wars were rainbow colors and the robots fell apart easily, but i still had fun building them and playing with them, really shows how lego truly has infinite possibilities and that's why we love it and we'll never outgrow it

    I love custom Lego armies.
    Whether it's stars or military.
    Although official sets from Lego or kits from off-brand companies that do military sets are good.
    Custom stuff just has a different feel that I love more.
    Keep expanding it bro!

    See this is why I love LEGO, it's the Garry's Mod of toys!
    Most people as they get older or become collectors always think you must keep sets together, try to keep stuff in pristine condition, etc. But part of the fun is just, breaking out a random box of parts and making whatever!
    You can make your own army however you want! Star Wars guys next to Ninjago snakes next to Indiana Jones' WW2 era soldiers next to Mars Mission astros? Do it! It can be crazy fun just making a mish-mash of whatever you can think of and turning it into some crazy cohesive army or force. It's like painting your own little tabletop miniatures, except this time you can make them look like quite literally whatever you want!
    Some of the most fun I've ever had with lego is opening an old box of my childhood pieces and going to town building whatever I can think of. Those men and women would then fight anything from aliens, to zombies, to.. household pets (my cat thought their main base on a baseplate was a good sleeping spot lol) and it was crazy fun!
    Honestly I should do that again sometime.. and with this video you've convinced me to do just that! I'm sure it was a blast of nostalgia looking back at your old builds, keep doing what your doing man, and go crazy with your creations, some of these looked AWESOME!

    The story of my army is that they been fighting against an imperial deep space exploration unit. Basically an imperial ship made to explore the deep of space fulled by a classified matter on a self sufficient ship that is almost the size of a death star. Currently there is 10 ships of those vs my world. Due to rebel clones and jedi that infiltrated those ships helped my world fight against them. The imperials could destroy the world at any moment but they don't since they want that planet to create a base and enslave them. During the long war my world creates ships and technology that helped them destroy 2 of the 10 ships that where in orbit during that time. The other ships will engage that world sooner or later. I could have made it more detailed explanation buy it would be toooooo much

    1:16, this reminded me of that one tank that looked like it didn't it in decades. It was SO thin, when someone fired the gun at a 90° degree turn it would literally almost tip the tank over and if the commander was peeking out the hatch he would fly out the tank.

Lore wise I believe my army’s mission is to become a protector of humanity fighting against forces that threaten annihilation, occupation, enslavement (Ex against: The Flood from Halo, the Covenant from Halo, yuuzhan vong from Star Wars, or the Nazis).

My schedule is quite packed with a lot of videos already planned but I will make an effort to investigate those products sometime soon.

    6:12 why’d the mass produced tank have a bigger gun than the slug 💀

    • @81stbrickbattalion
      @81stbrickbattalion  4 місяці тому

      (1) The M14 Guerrilla benefits from advances in artillery design efficiency and effectiveness allowing the mounting of big guns in a smaller space (Lore wise).
      (2) It’s also a turretless vehicle which makes it easier to mount large guns in a smaller chassis. Without a turret there is less machinery and complexity taking up space in the vehicle freeing up more vehicle space and weight. This can be used to mount a larger gun.
      (3) The Slug might have a smaller diameter gun buts it has a longer barrel. The longer barrel can result a in higher shell velocity. This higher shell velocity can result in the slug’s gun having the same or potentially greater armour penetration than the M12’s gun.
