    Then you may like these as well... (Normally when you see missile silos in the movies the missile shoots up out of the opened silo, but the original Titan missiles needed to be elevated all the way out of the missile base before they could be launched. That would have been part of the reason they were retired from service so quickly, I suspect.)

    Love these cut-aways as well. Good luck putting something together and I'll look forward to the maps.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
