Children of Ra, Arise - Unit Spotlight: Clan Cloud Cobra

Clan Cloud Cobra has long existed in the shadow of the Star Adders, and the Wars of Reaving did them no favors in that aspect. However, a throwaway line from the aforementioned Wars book, an alternate table of contents not used, gave me a great idea to put together a Cobra force for the 5th Succession Wars campaign. See, "Clan Blood Cobra" came up, in the sense that the Spirits are absorbed by the Cobras. And I thought, you know, since the Blood Spirits will be invading the IS Clans holdings, instead of using the Ice Hellions, it would make sense that the Cobras are tired of being considered a weaker Clan & that they would strike out with their new Spirit allies.

At any rate, finally got my Cloud Cobra Pharaoh Trinary finished up, minus basing and decals on four. I have another Binary on the drawing board right now, using some Cobra and some Spirit designs to tie the two forces together a bit closer.

A note on Cloisters; the Cloud Cobras are the most openly religious of Clans, with various faiths represented within the Clan, and without in some cases. I only mention this because of things like the Babylon Diet and and Ka'an Cloister are big parts of the impetus behind the 5th Succession War, in addition to the Coyote feud and a burgeoning tear in the Cobra/Star Adder alliance (due to Burrock inteference).
