Building the banemaster

Constitution on this 'banemaster' was like building a well building on trends, I had based off the master off the P. 1000 tank that Germans planned to use during WWII. But it wasn't build due to sticking out as a sitting duck for it's lack of proper AA defenses, but I fixed that little problem and made the tank even BIGGER! Hey in Texas their is a saying, 'everything is bigger in Texas' this is true did you know our capital building is taller than the Washington capital building by at least 5 feet? For this face I named this beast Lone star off my home.

Twice the size of its original size it was going to need a power core to power it though out and its machine spirit...whoa it took a shit tone of work to create such a powerful spirit. But luckily for me there was a ton of dead dragons lying around so it wasn't that hard, the machine spirit was so powerful the only thing I can think of coming close to it was a titan warlord. It also had the armaments to bring as well!

The main cannon was a twin linked naval lascannons those that battle barges carry echoing the past of the German party plans to add a German own naval cannon. As for the back ends of the 'tank' it held two rhino turrents mounted with twin link auto cannons to deal with enemy armor or heavy ground forces. Since it was longer I could add two more Icarus stormcannons for anti-air units then there were the 2 skyspear missile launcher that were in the middle of the banemaster and who open up to be used for heavy air units. Like the tanks of WW1 I had to add side armaments best I can explain is that it has mirrored system here let me explain.

There were four main weapons pointing up front while another of the same four were pointing back, I hope you understand. And for those four hold in the front/back on the right tread and left tread sides I added two heavy flamers and behind those I had two hurricane bolters. This was ment to deal with enemy troop holds/trenches if the assault cannon gunners failed. Yes, this beast had more guns added to it for above those heavy armaments there were three on both sides machine gunners with twin linked assault cannons to deal with infantry. Then there was the front, for I had replaced the maus tank's 75mm gun with a two Demolisher cannons along with a large siege shield that held a series of drills to take down even a imperial fist made wall!

Though Equis didn't have armored tanks like the dragons they might get smart and try to take a rhino or landmaster hell even a baneblade and I cant allow them to get their hands on my tech. This was why this thing was built to enforce the battle and keep the enemy from capturing our wargear, the true purposes of this would be a mobile command center along with a repair bay to fix any damned rhinos or landmasters (it even holds my warsuit) and to strike fear into the hearts of those who face us.

But creating such a beast was going to take up most of my time and resources even as construction started I had already run into a problem: more steel was required for my alloy for its armor.


I was in my chair as I sighed.

"Read that too me again?" I asked Alice as she did.

"Alright 'Due to your increase of iron for this 'steel' that you wish to make the griffin empire wishes double of the original price' do you want me to read it again?" I sighed as I shook my head.

"No right now the headache I have is like a bloodletter had my hand for a few days," I rubbed the sides of my head in annoyance before I shot up with my hands hitting the table. "Greedy bastards! THERE WORSE THAN THE DRAGONS!"

Alice sat on the table with her cup of coffee in hand as she looked at me.

"Just be glad I heard that and not Ember or a dragon," Alice warned me.

I began hit my head on the desk.

"Where. Am. I. Going. To. Get. That. Much. Gold," Slamming it one last time I sighed as Alice smiled.

"Your cute when your angry," I lifted my hand with the bird, of course she was confused at what I was doing but I didn't care right now, both sides of me were pisssssssed.

I could fell my warbeast side clawing at my brain as I grabbed a serum needle and jabbed it into my neck as I growled in pain before throwing it aside. Yeah I had to do drugs, Their only for medical purposes! You see I may have been free from the taint of my creator khrone but I wasn't free from the strain of my DNA that was locked away thanks to these serums I have to take. Usually I don't have to take one every two weeks so I don't go all 'feral' and right now it wasn't helpping with my animal side almost in a heat cycle. Oh boy will that be fun, popping a serum every hour not to rape Alice or Ember.

They are so lucky that they don't have a heat cycle...wait...does Alice even have a heat cycle? I mean ponies do and Ember told me dragons are almost always in a 'heated' state no pun please, but still. My head rested on the table as I looked to Alice who was reading one of the codexs I head on me, that one was about the salamanders.

"Hey Alice," She didn't look away from her book as she 'hm'. "Do your kind even have a heat cycle?"

She went wide eye as she turned to me...guess I shouldn't have said that, but she blushed a red that was barley visible due to her florescent fur.

"Well...um yes but I don't have it as bad since I'm a 0.1...why do you ask," I look to her as I spoke.

"I'm asking cause mine is coming up and I really want to make more of my serum so I can keep my inner berserk or whatever claim with you hitting on me. You are already bad as it is!" She blinked before laughing that laugh I liked but it came at a cost

Slamming my head down I knew this next part.

She then jumped on me as she hug-tackled me as she gave a Vulkan grade hug, I was lifted from my chair with her surprising strength as she hugged me. Yep I picked a hugger and snuggle buddy.

Why are the crazy one always the prettiest? Why god-emperor? Why do you do this to me?

"You don't like me doing thisssssssssss?" The force she gave pushed me into my chair as she was ontop of me and like a cat rubbing her face on my body, my chest and my face where her favorites places to rub. I blushed as she rubbed my cheek with her head.

"Yes I like this but I have a duty-"

She placed a hand on my mussel forcing it shut.

"You said you like it so enjoy it~" I then narrowed my eyes as a smile crept to my face.

This was war, and I know how to win it. I knew her weakspot.

I then placed a hand on her chin and began to scratch she stopped her attack as she rolled her eyes with a smile as I began to scratch her chin. In my human life I loved cat and I still do so when I had a few cats in my life that I owned I knew a few tips and tricks for these kind of things.

Then I went for another sweet spot her ear and at this point she knew it and I knew it, I had won this little war as she tried her best not to melt into it.

"Noooo farrrrr thatttt cheatttting," Then I went with another hand/claw (honest I don't know what to call them anymore) on her other ear as she fell onto my lap purring a storm.

Her fur was so soft and nice and-

"Um...sir?" I froze as did Alice.

I tilted my head to see one of my troops at my door, Alice and I shot from each other as I looked at the soldier I got up from my chair to him.

"Yes guardsman?"

He snapped out it as well.

"Sorry sir there is someone at the door and she wants to meet you," I then looked at him with a 'really' look as I spoke.

"Unless its Ember or my griffin buyers than I don't want to see them," Telling the trooper what I had ORDERED him to do I will deal with him later.

"But sir this pony wishes to talk to you about your steel problem," I then titled my head.

Ponies? why in the blazes would a pony want to see me about a steel problem? For what bizarre stories of me breaking the wing of rainbow dash the element of loyalty and threatening the entire main six. Ponies and pony sales'men' hate me and avoid me like the plague but one knowing where I was and wanting to do business with me? The got some guts I'll give them that.

"Alright then bring them in," He nodded but I then stopped him.

"Trooper..." He turned to me as Alice and I gave him a death glare. "You. Saw. nothing. am I clear,"

He nodded as he saluted.

"SIR YES SIR!" with that he left to get the pony.

I placed a hand on my chin as I wander who in all the hells could it be. Then I saw her...

Fizzing sparklepop or whatever better known as:

Tempest shadow


Author's Note

What does tempest have to offer the warbeast?

Does it have to do with her connection to the storm king?

Maybe *sniff* maybe...but I know one thing I can't wait to write about the Lone star! Cause that thing is basically a titan on wheels well in this cause treds.
