Token Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Forgeworld has old school missile launchers, but they are not cheap. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/231376-long-fangs-with-missles/#findComment-2782974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eikrem Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 You could try Ebay, but you may find the same problems there as bits websites. If you have any spare hunter killer missiles laying around, you could convert them into a missile launcher for a Long Fang.

Kassill Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I did the math a while back, and getting the Missile Launcher set from FW is cheaper then trying to get them at the bits sites or even ebay. Plus, you get two melta guns and two flamers. :devil: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/231376-long-fangs-with-missles/#findComment-2783292 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Durendal Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Even cheaper and awesome option: TheWarStore....go to the Battlewagon Bitz section and buy (for cheap) Cadian ML sprues. It requires some light conversions but it works like a charm.

Fhyn Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Agreed, granted I didnt go theu The Warstore, I bought mine from Ebay, but I think back when I bought my missile launchers for my first long fangs, I got the Cadian launchers for like $1.50 per 3. Not sure what they are going for now, but I would go that route again, if I hadnt lucked out and got 15 Long Fangs w/ missile launchers off Dakka for a good price.

Dahli Llama Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Yeah, i was able to get a bunch of Space Marines with Missile Launchers in a trade on Bartertown, but if I hadn't, the Imperial Guard missile launchers look good and tend to be relatively inexpensive.

Grey Mage Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I traded people some multi-meltas a while back to get a few more missile launchers. No need to convert, just be social.

silverneil Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Try these for something a little differrent. http://bitspudlo.com/products/missile-launcher-1 Not too expensive either.

Blacksad Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I used the missile launchers from scout packs, devastator squads, and drop pods. specialy the drop pods look überawesome. just a little bit of cutting and they fit over a bolter or plasmapistol. answer me this: is there anything more impressive and suiting for a long fang, than to walk up to the field of battle bearing a deathwind missile launcher single handed?

red_starrise Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 The IG ML looks quite a bit like the 2nd Ed SM ML when modified, great for Long Fangs due to them being old buggers anyway. Also, if you take a rhino storm bolter gunner arms & an HK ML from the rhino sprue, lop off the right arm & cut the peg from the top of the SB grip at an angle, then glue either a predator targetter or the HKM targetter onto the tube it works well, can post a pic of a WIP w/ one of these if you're interested.

dswanick Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 But ML spam is the more versatile list. Almost as good at anti-infantry as HBs, and anti-mech as LCs. And better than HBs against Mech and LCs against troops. ver-sa-tile (vûrs-tl, -tl) adj.1. Capable of doing many things competently. 2.

I think a diversified Long Fangs Pack is the most versatile, but what's in the pack should depend on what you're coming up against. There may be no need to be diversified weapons, all HB vs non mech Orks, all PC vs non mech Marines, all LC vs all mech whatever etc. I never saw the appeal of just missles though.

d@n Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 You can pick up scout missile launchers very easily. Trim of the scout arm stick on a handle from a rhino stormbolter and have the long fang carring it.

Oh, and no mister Claiborne, it's the Potato ;) I'll take 4X ML over 2X LC and 2X HB any day. That said I agree with part of your statement, the MLs form the basis for the LF pack, which can then be re-equipped based on the army I will be facing. 4X ML becomes 2X or 3X ML and 1 or 2 LCs against a mech army for example. Lastly, the Clairborne quote came with the cut/paste definition. Personnally, I'm a "Pork fat rules" kind of guy.

Oh, and no mister Claiborne, it's the Potato :tu: Personally I don't like tailoring my list. I take one list for both points levels I play regularly (1500 and 1750) the missile launcher is the jack of all trades. Without a doubt against the pure paladin army I wished I 'd got 15 lascannons rather than 15 missile launchers but against Dark Eldar those points would have been wasted, same with against a razorback unit.

arizonajirt Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Does anyone have a picture of the cadian missile launcher being used for long fangs?

Sweyn Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I used the missile launchers you find in the vehicles bits. With the "plasma pistol arms" to substain them! It is an easy modification.

I'm thinking he's about 70% done, but I can let him be right now if I'm feeling lazy. It's just that my OCD is saying he's only 70% done. Just saying! --EDIT-- C & C are welcomed.
