This zoid was recover from the dig sites discovered and unearthed by RaVeMaSter_VaN and Steel Fire. The Shield Liger was buried for hundreds of years that the paint slowly chips aways as time passes. Nothing was much known about the existence of this zoid and research suggest that somehow it does not belong to this world. It belongs to a army called "Republic Army". The log in the zoid also reported that the "Neo-Zenebas" must not discover this zoid at all cost. Steel Fire was puzzled at the log.

The underside of the zoid secrets a second pilot and a Light CPC. Ninjawolf controls the "bio" engine to control all Pangofins in the area by releasing a signal that is somehow similar to a Bio Commander's signal. Notice the red insigna that represents "Kendo Wolfs" by Ninjawolf.

Evotech Industry
Operation : Convert
Document Classified Level Gamma

Part I : Evotech Custom ¡°bio¡± emitter and receiver

After the contract with the Gigardo to mass-produce the ET-02 Pangofins was agreed. GojulasPrime decided to use one of the ancient zoids found at the dig sites to continue with the Operation: Convert. The ancient zoid will be attached with¡±master¡± equipment that emits a signal similar to a bio commander. At the same time, the Pangofins will be equip with a ¡°slave¡± version of out the equipment that receives the signal from the ancient zoid. Like the namesake of ¡°master¡± and ¡°slave¡±. The ¡° master¡±, who is the ancient zoid, will emit a signal to activate the hidden equipment onboard of the ¡°slaves¡±, which is the Pangofins.

Once activated, the Pangofins will immediately shut down and the cockpit will eject the pilot. Then the Pangofins, acting like bio zoids, will receive commands from the ¡°master¡±.
It was not know how Evotech acquire the ¡°bio¡± technology, but it was rumored that the technology was actually acquired from the ancient zoid¡¯s log.

The log tells that the ¡°bio¡± technologies, used by the ¡°Empire¡±, are attached onto Lord Gale as the master and the 006 ¨C 009 as the slaves. That sentence was not understandable by anyone, including Steel Fire. However , the blueprint to create the equipment was retained and so the task to built the prototype ¡°bio¡± technology is given to Warewolf.

However, the technology acquired was somehow similar to the Gigardo¡¯s bio units but with a lesser cost and space.

Part II : Shield Liger CAS

The ancient zoid chosen was Shield Liger. Once the decision had been made , the Shield Liger project began. The Shield Liger initially only equipped with normal weapons that can¡¯t do significant damage to any zoid currently in the war. So , the Shield Liger undergo a modification on it¡¯s equipment. Using Warewolf¡¯s equipment of radar jamming , it is attached onto the Shield Liger to attack behind enemy lines. The ¡°bio¡± technology was also attached to use against the Gigardo. The ancient zoid Shield Liger itself boasts a light but durable armor that is able to defend itself from enemy barrages , even though massive amounts of paint and metal corroded off the body. The Shield Liger also equipped with a special CAS system designed by Tyrannotaur and created by Genofox and Wyvex Executor.

Equipped on land

-Light Unit
Twin autocannons created by the Evotech that boast excellent firepower and accuracy.

Equipped from air by Buster Vulture

-Sniper Unit
A 120mm Long Range Cannon for sniper and artillery roles

-Booster Unit
Twin Douglas booster to be used for hit and run , long distance travelling roles.

-Blade Unit
Twin Winden Blades with mini autocannons for close combat roles.

Part III Buster Vulture : Unit Carrier

Using Shield Liger as a CAS mainframe in battle need a lot of resources to move the Units from one place to another. Tyrannotaur suggested that a support unit is crucial to carry out orders for the need of a Unit. Tyannotaur then concluded that using another ancient zoid to do the delivery would be feastable. GojulasPrime accepted the proposal and assign Buster Vulture for the job. GojulasPrime also assign Lt Sullivan to pilot the Buster Vulture. After massive design integration between the Units and the Buster Vulture. The ancient zoid is completed and ready for combat.

The Buster Vulture is capable of ¡°hot drop¡± any Unit the Shield Liger needs for the current sortie and also capable of holding all 3 units at the same time. The Buster Vulture can freely use the Units for self defense or attack targets without any aid.

The fader banner says you will die if you don't!! XD

Anyways

Your custom is not a bad attempt. Its like those nice "moveabilty type" Zoid in those magazine scans. cant agree with the bird though.

Cheers

[RaVeMaSter_VaN]

Yeah thanks buddy for the comments! Your's is solid as usual. Cheers! ;D

[Yurei Avalon]

Very nice weathering, the whole thing though kind of blends together without something else to make it stand out. Love thats hade of green though. The random stuff sticking out of its butt is just.... the heck? The whole second mode thing is neat, but what is it turning into? Still trying to figure it out. And well, all the add on parts are neat and welld esigned but, the random color assortment just kind of gets to me.

[milicron]

I like it, but my problem is the Liger is supposed to be for the "Skill" crowd, not the firepower fans.

Great paint job, great idea overall but not somthing I'd pilot.

Oh, and the birdy is neat as well.

[RaVeMaSter_VaN]

Let me clarify everything.

Example :

Bio Raptor (Bio Commander edition)

Controls all Bio Raptor that are pilotless

Similarly :

Shield Liger ("Bio" Commander)

Controls all Pangofins that are pilotless due to ejection
of the current Gigado pilots in side.

P.S If you had read the 2005 Faction Contest , Evotech wasn't allowed access to Bio Technology , but after the discovery of Shield Liger (From my storyline) , they found a "bio" system almost the same as the original Bio Technology.

That "bio" refers to the technology of Lord Gale controlling Shellkarn and other critters ;D

Kinda complicated but will be understandable ;D

Lol , this is what happens when you are at Phenotype's Forum for three years. ;D

It was quite a challenge to get the story right and making the custom itself. I am proud of it. Hope you guys vote ;D

Lol , for the butt , cause I wana make a aerodymanic type of liger , so actually that was part of a extra booster unit but I just didn't include it in the story. For the second mode , you mean the "bio" thingy? I clarified at a few post above this. Lastly , the mix colour was to show that the integration of old and new , although you could have dismissed that as being lazy to paint or sort of. Either way , excellent critics , thanks for your time

[Yurei Avalon]

naw it's not lazy. I'm just a big fanatic of matching acessories

like my slippers? theymatch my PJ bottoms hehe

[Königbreaker]

There is no way in hell I am looking at all of those links..




But I really do like it.. I'm glad you got away from those mecha Zoids.. I'm a real big fan of articulated Zoids... 9/10.

Lolz! Anyway your custom is nice too! I love the shiny colours , but honestly , I don't really like that varient of zoid. But yours still rawks!! Woo hoo! ;D

[Yurei Avalon]

I can't stand battle cougar/storm tiger either but, it was all I had floating around in the closet to cannibalize. Now at least he's in a tolerable color scheme so I can justify keeping my $4 wonder lol
