As the title states, I am currently in the starting process of getting a group together in using our ideas to create 4 new Custom Mining Transports.
So far we currently have Two. The Rock Badger and Nanga Parbat by their respected factions of IMG and GMS. In this process, I would like to put together ones for Liberty, Rheinland, Kusari and Bretonia. Each one supporting designs and stats respected for their houses.
I've currently come up with some proto-type stats, infocards, and names though these are subject to change.

In a rare joint project under orders from Kanzler Rheinhardt, the Einheitslok was developed to help with Rheinland's weakened economy in order to help consolidate and cut costs. Its heavy design was instrumental due to the dangerous conditions in which the multitude of Rheinland's miners have to work in, supporting the idea "The steel and will of the Kanzler will not be shaken"

Despite the ongoing war with Gallia, progress must continue. The King John however, falls short. Considered a far outdated model, the King John was brought back into service due to the already heavy toll on Bretonia's war economy and the unavailability of time for further research into new technology.
Any help in modeling help would be nice, as 1 person can't do it all.
If you wish to take part, please drop me an IM and we can hopefully put out a series of great models for a future update.
