UPDATE 12-06-2020


This update features a large remodel of the pack, new skin for the base variant and The New Surface Block. The new models are cleaner and look a bit less rough and unfinished.

UPDATE 27-07-2019


This update will include the small powered and unpowered wheels/cogs to the pack! I tried to keep the original Besiege look as much into it, while getting that Tank-armor vibe in it too. The uncoated tank armor skin has still wood inside the unpowered wheel. The red coated variant now also includes a KPV Heavy machine gun as crossbow model. but that one is still a bit under construction (lacks proper texture).

UPDATE 28-04-2019


After nearly 2 years of existence, this pack is far from death. This update only adds one more block the crossbow. however, as you see in the image, every pack got a different crossbow model. every model is handmade and inspired from a real machine gun (left to right): M2HB, DShK, Lewis gun, MG34, Hotchkiss M1914, Vickers MG and the M1919.
The armorplates below them indicate to which coating they belong. side note, Red, yellow and white do not have yet a crossbow model. if you liked these models, please leave a rating and or comment of their respective pages (put some real effort in building them).

UPDATE 03-02-2019


Added the Ballast and the Grabber. especially the grabber could be used to build heavily armored aircraft or airships with.

UPDATE 09-11-2018


Added the plow model. the model has a solid surface, intended for protection plates over the tracks. I also altered the cannon texture, now each coated variant has a coated mount of the cannon.

UPDATE 25-08-2018

Added both variants of the propeller. with this, using this skin in planes is much cleaner.
All credits for the small propeller model and most of the large propeller model go to CCCanyon.

UPDATE 08-07-2018


added flamethrower and improved the model and texture of the wooden panel.
Flamethrower model is as good as new, inspired on the Wechselapparat Flammenwerfer (also known as the "Wex"). As such, a man-held flamethrower. accessories like the handle bar and the ring in front could be removed in the future if they feel to much out of place.

UPDATE 13-09-2017

added wooden panel

UPDATE 07-09-2017

Added the brace, round armor plate and new model for the cannon. brace is as usual only texture, round armor plate has been made round. cannon model has got a new modern look. removed the foot in order to make it look proper when used in tank emplacements (where usually the cannon is attached to a ballast outside the turret). also has a breach loading appearance.

UPDATE 30-08-2017

Metal blade added, especially designed as side armor plates. therefore only 3 nails on one side. nails have stretched by default as in most situations the blade is scaled down in the ‘z’ direction. at about a z-scale of 0.65 the nails are perfectly spherical

UPDATE 10-07-2017

Scaling block added, for the tankers who like to use scaling blocks (upscaling recommended).
