Anyone else excited about Gk conversion opportunities?


Recommended Posts

Had trouble finding the Narthecium myself, looks like it's got a chainfist built in to it as well. Anywho, was that Dreadknight not one of the single most awesome models GW has produced in a long time or what!? Since the GK get to borrow our Stormravens, I think they should let us have a few of those.

All nartheciums (or narthecii?) have that wee chainblade attachment. It's on the power armour one too in the Space Marine Command Squad box. This one is just bigger due to it being on terminator armour.

The model kits look brilliant! Very nice kits indeed. Hats off to GW for producing another awesome line. The character models are very impressive too...But I'm not a fan of the dreadknight things. I don't know the fluff or anything behind them, but they remind me of those things from the Matrix film :devil: but its scale is definately impressive!

IronKobra you are better off not knowing... but yeah With a box of each you will end up with 13ish nifty helmets and around 30 something power weapons and thanks to them loosing detail from the Metal minis lots less work needed to convert them. and Now people have no excuses to not have fancy personalised Libbys :devil: other than that I have little interest in the Knights and Now might as well start a wolves army due to TWM have now been knocked off the stupidest thing in the game tower

Fellas, stop discussing that mecha baby holding ape :devil:

 

As for using gk bits to convert libbies. What bits are you taking about? Nemesis weapons? Books from tda gk? Condom-shaped caps like those of medieval knights? They don't have plastic psychic hoods and wired chests like libbies do. So there's not too much conversion potential imho. DC also has nice bits, BA-themed bits :lol:

They also have a couple of staffs on those sprues that would make cool force weapons, as well as the bladed weapons. Much of the parts are more ornate than standard power armour bits, which helps for librarians, and as you said there are books and such too. You could make a librarian just from Grey Knight bits, but my plan was to mix these bits with other Space Marine kits to create some character models. I'm viewing these kits as sprues of bits to mix into my models, rather than as complete models (unless I start a Grey Knights army, or switch to that codex to represent my daemon-hunting Exorcists).

Personally I think the Dread Knight is HORRIBLE looking, I can't believe so many people like it. Also what strikes me as funny is that I loved the Storm Raven when I first saw it where most people hated it. I guess I'm just weird like that.
