Visual correlation of the pattern suggest, with a 95.38564 degree of certainty (allowing for standard servitor induced deviation) this is an Encarii pattern Tachypleus from the Aphyrion Forges. This obscure and pre-schism pattern is often used to fulfil a similar battlefield role as the Macrocarid Explorator but also offers a low enough profile to be used as regular conveyance.
This vehicles origin or ownership is subject of advanced levels of shrouding. The omicron level data baffles preventing Noospheric communion and obscuration filters that have a negative impact upon visual auspex servitors is highly unorthodox. This, when combined with the flank markings suggest that this vehicle, whilst operating under the colours of Mezoa, is actually employed under the auspices of the Ordo Mechinum. As a result of these findings all further information on this vehicle, and it’s occupants, is deemed Vermillion Level data and will no longer be parsed to the local Noospheric networks.

When fielded I use this one as a Macrocarid explorator, I’ve added the additional guns to the front represent this and make it more obvious it’s more heavily armed.
This is the last of my tanks from the mind of the great forgesmith Aphyrion (and can be found here: https://www.cgtrader.com/aphyrion )
To build this model was much more difficult than the others. Ok so it’s only like 4 parts to build which is easy but something when wrong with the print unfortunately. As you can see from the pictures below the cure warped/contracted some of the components to such a degree that I had to get the power sander out and then still fill it. That said once it’s built it is damned solid and bloody heavy - I’m a wimp and had to keep putting it down.
All that aside I Can’t recommend the models enough and it can fulfil plenty of roles in an ad mech force.
