Spaniard Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hello Brothers, I was just wandering, does the speeder in the battleforce box come with the option to make it with typhoon launchers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsev Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 i would guess so as the typhoon launchers are on the ravenwing upgrade sprue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upstartes Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 In the old battleforce box, that was definitely the case. I have a typhoon speeder that I built from that set - and had some extra typhoon bits to put on other speeders as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthamal Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Confirmed the RW sprue has them :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasse Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Am I the only one who wishes they'd changed the battleforce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbenner Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 5 Deathwing Command Squad, 10 Terminators, and a Venerable Dreadnought would be such a secksi Battleforce... Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I wish they would have gone to a standard RW bike faring set and the new Speeder sprue in the Battleforce/Dark Vengeance. I'm really struggling to decide what to do with the DV RW bikes because they look too out of place among the regular RW stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortysl Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 5 Deathwing Command Squad, 10 Terminators, and a Venerable Dreadnought would be such a secksi Battleforce... Paul Yeah because GW are going to allow us to make virtually a full Deathwing army for £140....... Wishful thinking at it's finest brother Although it would have been nice to see perhaps elements of each Wing in the Battleforce, I am trying to build a Ravenwing army from scratch so having a complete Attack Squadron in a single box is awesome.

I'm really struggling to decide what to do with the DV RW bikes because they look too out of place among the regular RW stuff. I'm just gonna suck it up and write it off as different evolutions of the bikes, in the same way that there are so many variants of space marine armor. Where I can, I am consolidating one type in one squad and the other type in another. However, in some cases that's just not going to be possible. Some marines like the new models, while some prefer to stick with the older ones. I'm sure they have many arguments over which bikes are best while waiting for their thunderhawk to get to the landing site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniard Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Thanks brothers, i only ask becasue when i get back from deployment i plan on getting 4 battleforce boxs, looks like i will have to ge upgrade sprues as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Each RW Battleforce comes with three full RW upgrade frames, it's a ton of stuff (three sets of Typhoon launchers, six assault cannons, six power swords, nine RW helmets, and on).

Spaniard Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 is that something new, on the gameworkshop site it doesnt mention it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komodo Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I thought they'd reissue DA Battleforce -- Command squad, Scout snipers, Devastators, combat squad and Rhino. The box was a steal back in 2007 for 50 J. But yes, you sure can build typhoon variant, cause RW spue has them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 is that something new, on the gameworkshop site it doesnt mention it Nope, nothing new, that's the way it always has been. Each RW Battleforce comes with three full RW upgrade frames/accessory packs. It's why the RW Battleforce is still the best deal I've seen out of all of the Battleforces.

Upstartes Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yeah, those sprues are great. In addition to the stuff to upgrade the bikes (winged cowls, etc), there are ravenwing shoulder pads, ravenwing heads, an oustretched arm with a power sword in it, and also some upgrade items for regular vehicles - big dark angels symbols to glue on the side of tanks, lots of purity seals and waving scrolls, etc. They're great sprues.
