INTRODUCTION FROM THE AUTHOR >> LEGO bricks are designed to inspire. They are meant to kindle the imagination and bring out the unique side of everyone.

Whether that's the architect, the set designer, the maniacal genius, or the conquering hero, LEGO bricks give us the ability to be an imaginative inventor of wonderful creations. But, everyone has a different definition of wonderful. Some will build armies that will go forth and conquer all of space, even if the galaxy only stretches from the foot of the bed to the window sill. Some will create a land of fairy tales filled with technicolor vehicles that ride on mismatched tires and planes that couldn't possibly fly in our non-brick world. Then there are those who are always looking to build a better army, to have limitless LEGO power at their disposal. They continue to amass a collection of bigger, better, and faster vehicles, building each one with pride and ingenuity and discovering new techniques and better designs along the way.

This book is for those vehicle maniacs. Inside you will find crazy techniques, advanced builds, and kindling for the imagination. This book gives you the structure and instructions to build the collection of amazing machines on the following pages that range from a VTOL jet, to an armored transport, and even a rotating mobile missile battery. >> Black Ops missions encompass more than just the vehicles that cause mass destruction, it's also about the support vehicles, the day to day transports to get VIP's and criminals from point A to point B, and the impenetrable off-road mobile medical unit that just might be the key to survival for your minifig in his most dire hour. Specialized missions aren't only about the attack helicopter that will take out anything in its path, they're also about that support helicopter that will show up with reinforcements and covering fire to save your butt in the middle of heated LEGO warfare. While there are full instructions for each vehicle in here, the idea is not to build them all and claim victory because you're finished.

You're never finished with LEGO, there is always something new to build. If you build just one or build them all, the hope is that you'll come away with ideas for your next ten, twenty, or hundred creations. Whether that idea is as small as a new seat design that you'll put in your own next-gen fighter jet or as vast as finding a particular style of weapon that you hope to implement across your entire LEGO arsenal, as long as you're inspired, the idea is what counts.
