Isn't that official art from the game?
Also, there's a cursor in there. LOL
I've seen that picture before many times.
Plus that Grizzley is used in the Battlezone Classic banner.

Nice pic. If BZ1 really looked like this, I would be happy to give it a go. It almost looks like it could be recreated in the BZ2 engine maybe with a little terrain grid scaling to increase the vis range and space the buildings.

Something I wish was in BZ1 and 2, would be when you shot at a power unit, wherever you shot it at, would blow up and it would fly off.
Leaving a half of a power unit that is on fire.
It would seem more realistic than shooting a power unit in the top and all of it blowing up.

BZE1.3-RC1 doesn't have the richness of detail as the poster, but if you crank it up to its full 1900x1200 @ 60 FPS capability using DX9, it looks like an entirely different game engine.

Oh and I'm very familiar with the artwork. :D ;)

what the crap what girl stands in front of a bz1 tank with a cat on her back

baconboy the only power that has been hit didnt even have any part of it blown off. your probably looking at the factory. but yes i would like to see chunks of a power plant come off wherever you shoot it

Thats doable in game btw, but only for PRE placed buildings. (pool object as destroyed fire form, deploy a special scav on it that is the full building)

The scrap drop method wont work because scrap has random orientation.

Oh, and of course then there's DLL

Those Cerberi units actually looks smaller and unlike any i recognize.

More like insects...maybe those ARE cerberi pilots :D Or anti personell units. Equal to the soldiers.

Im thinking Storm Troopers here...

That reminds me of either "Star Ship Troopers" or "The Forever War".

I'm looking forward a LOT to seeing what Ridley Scott does with 'The Forever War' in 2013. I was terribly disappointed in Starship Troopers onscreen. I hoping the genius of Scott will really deliver.

If by chance you posted that pick because you like the bug/ant sociological and psychological hive mind (insect) fighting against the primate branch of evolution. . . .the book Armor is another awesome read.
