Jamafore Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 For the pintle mounted storm bolter, I was thinking of putting a Chimera heavy bolter turret in the slot. I want it to resemble the commander's cupola turret on the M3 Lee from WW2. My question is has anyone done this? Does it look too big, or not fit? A Pred turret I know is too big, so I don't want to use that.

KhorneHunter57x Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 *grabs Land Raider and Chimera turret, sticks one onto the other* I think it looks great. You might have an issue with the turret rings as they are quite a bit different, but I think it looks pretty great. I would use a Marine hatch on top of the turret (to reinforce that it is a Marine vehicle, and not just a bit borrowed from the IG) and convert the weapon to be a Storm Bolter (or perhaps convert the Chimera Heavy Flamer into a Multi-Melta). Darn...I wish I had thought of this. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242480-chimera-turret-on-a-land-raider/#findComment-2931584 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemal Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Alternatively you could replace the HB on the recessed bay with the turret HB and pintle SB, and then you have a nice empty space to add accotrements like sensors, cameras and maybe a vox caster Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242480-chimera-turret-on-a-land-raider/#findComment-2932944 Share on other sites More sharing options...
