Before long, Little Knife brought the Flower Shield noble to a heavy vehicle workshop.
A large number of military vehicles stood inside, with everything from jeeps to military trucks-all vehicles the Shipboard Factory could build.
Of course, the Flower Shield noble had not come to look at those vehicles. He was interested in armored vehicles and tanks.
The tanks and armored vehicles here were mainly Chimera Transports and Leman Russ tanks.
These two chassis were used by practically every armed branch of the Imperium. Even some gangs and aliens used them, mainly because humanity had built so many!
The technology for both vehicles had long since been made open-source. They were easy to manufacture, performed well, and used reliable technology. With the designs freely available, any faction with a little industrial capacity could build them.
Of course, being able to build them was one thing. What weapons they could mount was what really determined their combat power.
Little Knife then led the Flower Shield noble around the two chassis.
After carefully inspecting their welds and the layout of their internal equipment, the Flower Shield noble expressed his complete satisfaction.
Little Knife handed him a data slate.
"My lord, we only have two display chassis here. Both use welded construction, which offers better protection than riveting.
"As for the weapons and equipment they can carry, you can configure those yourself on this data slate. The cost of your configuration will also be clearly displayed."
The Flower Shield noble studied the configuration slate with interest. It had what looked like a piece of 3D software for modifying tank chassis.
The tank and weapon models were displayed clearly, with labels showing how many slots each chassis had and how many weapons could be installed.
The Flower Shield noble began experimenting, starting with the
