Banckard-Class Land Monitor

Monitors are the smallest class of combat vessels operated by the Krevarian Land Navy - incapable of long-range independent operation, they smaller operations near settlements and in zones where larger ships cannot easily operate. For cost savings, many land monitors are constructed on the chassis of superheavy tanks and the Banckard class is no exception.

Produced in competition with the Kortenaer-class, the Banckards feature a pair of superfiring turrets that allow the monitor to provide a withering hail of cannon fire in any direction. The class also features an expanded engine bay that allows it to match speeds with the Broadsword tanks that the class’ hull is based on. A variety of secondary armaments provide adequate close-in defense against soft targets.

This kit includes the parts needed to build a Banckard-class Land Monitor with a variety of optional weapons.

There are three main gun types, and several options each for casemate and subturret weapons.

The side and upper/rear hulls are modular for easy swaps between loadouts, and the kit is compatible with other Broadsword-chassis vehicles (including the Broadsword, Pike, Palisade, and Kortenaer).

The weapons have magnet holes in case you want to swap weapons after assembly. You’ll need 3mm (⅛”) x 1mm and 5mm (¼”) x 1mm rare earth magnets if you choose to take advantage of them.

This kit is preed, but also includes uned STLs for those who want to print in FDM or would prefer to handle their own s.

s for this Broadsword portions of this model were provided by Yonathan Ho, who goes by Blunticulus on my discord (and elsewhere online). All other parts are ed by myself.

Due to the large size of some parts and the arrangement of them for optimal printing, the preed objects may not be compatible with some smaller printers. An example of one of the largest objects in this set is 111x105x84mm.
