After 16 years under Angela Merkel, Germany has a new government - formed by the so-called "traffic light coalition" of three parties represented by the traffic light colors.
I thought this special staircase would be a good dedication for the start of the new administration, and inspiration for dynamic performance š
during the last game drive in Lemek Conservancy we saw the third male of the coalition for the first time and he was now also following the mating couple, just like the second one.
The mating pair is shown in the first comment box.
This was in the morning and obviously this third male had been in a fight shortly before

One of a coalition of five male cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus), sometimes called the 5 Musketeers or the Fast Five, that have been together since the Fall of 2016. This is a historic grouping because of its large number and consists of two brothers and three non related males. Together they are able to hold larger territory and bring down larger prey.

The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is a large cat native to Africa and central Iran. It is the fastest land animal, estimated to be capable of running at 80 to 128 km/h (50 to 80 mph) with the fastest reliably recorded speeds being 93 and 98 km/h (58 and 61 mph), and as such has several adaptations for speed, including a light build, long thin legs and a long tail.
The cheetah lives in three main social groups, females and their cubs, male "coalitions" and solitary males. While females lead a nomadic life searching for prey in large home ranges, males are more sedentary and may instead establish much smaller territories in areas with plentiful prey and access to females.
The cheetah is active mainly during the day, with peaks during dawn and dusk. It feeds on small- to medium-sized prey, mostly weighing under 40 kg (88 lb), and prefers medium-sized ungulates such as impala, springbok and Thomson's gazelles. The cheetah typically stalks its prey to within 60ā70 m (200ā230 ft), charges towards it, trips it during the chase and bites its throat to suffocate it to death. -
The cheetah occurs in a variety of habitats such as savannahs in the Serengeti, arid mountain ranges in the Sahara and hilly desert terrain in Iran. The cheetah is threatened by several factors such as habitat loss, conflict with humans, poaching and high susceptibility to diseases. In 2016, the global cheetah population was estimated at around 7,100 individuals in the wild; it is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. ā Wikipedia

Male cheetahs will often group together in groups called coalitions. They usually group with brothers, but may also group with an existing group or other males that were the lone male in their litter. Female cheetahs, however, hunt alone with the exception of hunting with their own cubs.
used to rocket flak enemy flight lines, it can jet leap long distances and pack a punch at the same time, this one is used by house vandal.
There is a modified version of the blisterback named the punisher, it is used by pack commander chalv, the main modifications are the inclusion of two left ogre arms used for punching enemy mechs to death.

The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is a large cat of the subfamily Felinae that occurs in Southern, North and East Africa, and a few localities in Iran. Cheetahs inhabit a variety of habitats - dry forests, scrub forests, and savannahs. The species is IUCN Red Listed as vulnerable, as it suffered a substantial decline in its historic range in the 20th century due to habitat loss, poaching, illegal pet trade, and conflict with humans.
The original coalition of five cheetahs, Tano Mbora, has now dwindled down to two, known as the Mbora Mbili, is surviving in the harsh environment of the wild in Maasai Mara with every day bringing a new challenge.
This beautiful Cheetah, Winda one of the Mbora Mbili Cheetah coalition, was resting under a bush with a full belly. Captured during a photography safari on an early morning game drive in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.
Their power combined is simply incredible.
Strong coalitions of male lions help to stable lion populations, as the males are able to hold on to their territories for long enough to ensure the survival of their cubs.

used as a breacher weapon for the coalition, it can launch a HE dart at a surface that will explode on impact, or the trigger can be held down to launch the same dart impaling the target to a surface before exploding.

used as a Melee weapon for the chieftain rank, this one is the "bane of war" used by chieftain jardek, these things are booster equipped and dangerous, as when they hit a surface the gravity generator gets shaken till it goes off, liquifying the chieftains target.

Following in line with previous coalition vehicles, the SV - 14 relies on heavy armour and other vehicles for protection.
Most suited for Urban fighting, the 14 can resist many man-portable tank busters. This is enjoyed greatly by assaulting soldiers who use the extra distance to better close with their targets.
While off the front lines, the SV - 14 performs roles as a supply mule and multi-purpose transport. Though the openness of Tarsin design allows for many additional roles.
"You know very well they've never put me out of action!" Last words of Commissar Vorch, before his command SV was slagged by a Ciritai Pylon during the siege of Kronus.
My first try at a starfighter since -i think- i came out of the dark ages.
Heavily inspired by Dasnewten and Hase0, this build was triggered when i realized the insectoid piece can be used as a canopy (which i believe i've never seen done before) Attaching this piece was tricky and i had a lot of trouble intergrating it to a design. Come to think of it it was actually hard to find a design that matched the piece (and i'm not used to worikng with trans-neon green either)
I wanted a rough looking greebly heavy craft. Think hiigaran corvette meets matrix APU.
Guns are all poseable (even the ones in the front) and the fig fits inside.
Viewing large or original is recommended if you wanna take a closer look.
