I like the think that the Shockopus is a Merfolk/Mech like the Deep Borer is a Dwarf/ Mech. Somewere in that octopus shell is a merfolk driving it. ---

Yeah that’s how I got myself comfortable with where the theme was going… let’s hope (devs pls make sure) that the art captures that with a nice bulbous cockpit part and the thing looks like a mech, not a biological octopus with machine bits added… > [@VegaDark541](#): > > As the winner do I get to come up with the flavor text? I believe that this is the sole province of @sirrian who is (clearly) the master of the most dreadful puns… ---

Will we get a new design-a-troop project? I guess we don’t need to wait for the release of the 1st DaT troop… 🙂 ---

The Shocktopus, if the AI uses it smartly, will be quite dangerous in guild war defenses ---

It takes a lot of effort and organising, not only the competition but getting the troop created as well. It’s going to be a special ocassion kind of deal. 🙂 ---
