Hide Behind Vanguard Hurley in Sedition Wars
June 15, 2012 by brennon
We took a look at some deadly members of the Strain from Sedition Wars before but now let's get ourselves set up defensively with the Vanguard's Hurley Drone from Studio McVey...
While the concept and design of the machine makes it look a little 'cute' I can imagine as soon as it fires you will be thinking completely different thoughts...
"The Vanguard Hurley is a tactical mobile combat information centre that interfaces with the Vanguard tactical network. Designed to provide Vanguard troopers with defensive and offensive support, the Hurley fulfills multiple roles through the use of autonomous drones that respond to the Hurley AI’s own instruction. The Hurley uses a class obsidian firewall, and is capable of preventing network intrusion and viral attack on the Vanguard Tac-Net.
It is also armed with a Kinesis Cannon, frequently referred to as the Comfort Gun."
A fairly awesome looking model that I can't wait to see in the Battle for Alabaster game. I can certainly say I would be happier if Hurley was floating in front of me on an infected space ship.
What do you make of Hurley?

I’m getting flashbacks to UFO: Enemy Unknown here. This can only be a good thing!
Thats a squished Dalek we’re looking at!
Tough, chunky build and anti-grav mobility – we’ve come along way since this:

It’s not a real strong resemblance but I keep thinking of the Disney movie, The Black Hole.
At first I liked the look of that thing,but then because of its relative cuteness and high-tec design it made me think of Portal’s turrets … Now I can’t help but picture them talking when they detect something …”Heelloo ?”
Drones that are made for war have never looked more cute.
Looks like something that might have taken potshots at Dr. Who in the 60’s
