The Ginger Avenger Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I was considering picking up Forgeworld's reinforced Land Raider armour for use with my LRC when I get around to building it but I wanted to ask a question first. The extra armour sits over the tracks where the frag assault launchers go. Do the frag launchers sit nicely on top of these extra armour plates? It looks like there may be a bit of a gap. Has anybody used this upgrade with the Crusader variant of Land Raider? Any pics or comments would be most appreciated...

Glaeken Templaris Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Hmmmmm looking at the model i can only see 2 ways of getting around this issue. 1, is to hack off the armour over the front treads and slap your assault launchers back on or 2. stick them on the armour and whip out the GS and get filling in those gaps brother. Question. you got the metal or plastic assault launchers. if plastic id actually be tempted to trim them down and try and fit a few in the gaps at the front where they would normally go.

The Ginger Avenger Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm assuming it'll be plastic. I don't actually have it yet, but it'll be the one that comes with the megaforce box. Those are all good suggestions, so thanks for that. Can't wait to get started...

zxyogi Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Agree with Glaeken....personally I would cut off the track guardsand fit the frag launchers,would not fit them on top of the extra armour! What about fitting the side armour ala..... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266736-reinforced-land-raider-armour/#findComment-3248747 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Avenger Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 I did consider the side armour, but the other one just makes it look so much more imposing in my opinion. Thanks for sharing that pic, though - that's a beautifully painted Land Raider. The weathering is particularly nice...

zxyogi Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I know what you mean Ginge Ave. If you was to fit the side armour then the frag launchers you would basically have the same look! I have a set of reinforced armour that I have fitted to my Achilles,love the front section but the back end is lacking unlike the side armour! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266736-reinforced-land-raider-armour/#findComment-3249469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
