Dark Scipio Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Incredible what people already did to the knight: http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/2610/m1710176a99120107003dre.jpg Dreadknight conversion http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/2561/dreadknight.jpg Dread knight conversion http://i642.photobucket.com/albums/uu145/bucket_of_bcb/m1710186a_99120107003_DreadKnight03_873x627.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I've removed the ones that were Orkified dreadknights, lets keep conversions to B+C appropriate armies. Also those that were hotlinked from a source other than an image hosting site were turned into links.

Olgerth Istaarn Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Yes, if you could make an enclosed cockpit, the thing is actually pretty cool. The hybrid dreadnought idea is rather awesome. Though it still screams "Gurren Lagann". Maybe, if I ever buy it, I'll give it a drill.

Xeonic Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Swap GK termie-->Chaos termie lord=daemon prince proxy for armies the daemon prince isn't fluffy for. Not my idea though (link to chaos ascendant thread).

Captain Tezdal Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 It's still ugly, and I believe the Eldar are prepping a suite for walker infringement as we speak.

Dark Scipio Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 It's still ugly, and I believe the Eldar are prepping a suite for walker infringement as we speak. I dont understand why not bulky walkers should be an Eldar thing, despite Knights and pent. Engines or even Sentinels.

It is really the AdMech that are filing for copyright infringement of their Knight patents. I can hear the binary cants of heresy! But Admech builds the dread knights and gives them to grey knights... please note that the dread knight is inferior to Mechanicus knights as it has no enclosed cockpit to protect the pilot who also has to use joysticks rather than a MIU.

CantonWC Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 It's probably been said before, but someone should photoshop Ripley's head into the cockpit.

Most likely is the Terminatorarmour vastly superior to a knights cockpit in terms of protection.

Brother Darkover Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 If you GS the front piece in and add a head on top it is definitely possible to get this to look like a Gundam *Edited for spelling Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/#findComment-2683595 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldarkside Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I think i Would like to see a more enclosed chest piece and a claw on one hand. Or maybe remove one of the hands, cut the nemesis blade handle and glue the blade in place of the hand.

Cpt_Reaper Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 As most GK players will be getting one or more Stormravens I see a solution. Most people convert the SR to have a different Razorback-like turret, but what to do with the manned turret? Put it on the front of the DreadKnight. I myself will attept to put a sentinel cockpit on it to make it like a Knight-titan.

Razblood Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Looks like a Imperial version of a Tau Battlesuit :P I would however still have one if they were available for all marine armies ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/#findComment-2683613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firenze Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Im buying one. Only to butcher it and make a Knight titan. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/#findComment-2687478 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Just remember that in Epic 40k, Knight Paladins ( the basic Knight) was roughly equivalent to a Leman Russ, rather than anything else. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/#findComment-2687493 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadesOfGrey Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Looks a lot better. Those shoulder hydrolic type things were just ugly, and made the link between the Matrix APU a bit too obvious. Now, I think one of the biggest problems with the model is still the weird hands.. If the shooty weapons replaced the doomfistsofdoomydoom... it's still a stupid concept and a meh model, but it wont be an eyesore at least :yes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/#findComment-2687504 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rymeer Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 interesting comments everyone, but I'm still getting two... one to build 'as is'... the other to convert to have an enclosed cockpit like a regular dreadnought's sarcophagus.

RedMoon Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 well guess im the only one in world that seems to actually like the thing how it is if. just makes since that if its all inclosed then it should have a AV not wounds and toughness. i would rather have full range of motion if im fighting a daemon then sitting in a cockpit and trying to make the machine drive how i want it. just my to cents lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/224380-rally-the-ideas-alt-dreadknight/#findComment-2688222 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherWasted Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Pilot is protected by a force field. This would be what is indicated by the 4++ Invulnerable Save.
