Rasclomalum Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Interested in getting my hands on the Reclusiam Command Squad, mainly because I need to bolster my army with another Rhino and I'm in love with the Chaplain model. Some conversion work on that bad boy and I have a wicked looking Dark Apostle/Sorcerer. Now, that package comes with a Razorback. CSM can't use Razorbacks, but the turret looks cool. So my question is - would it be feasible to turn the Razorback turret into a Combi-bolter turret?

Kierdale Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 It might look a little weedy? How about if you combined in a -what's it called? I'm not at CSM player- a Havoc launcher? Or one of those sonic weapons? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285561-csm-rhino-with-a-razorback-turret/#findComment-3568365 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolandTHTG Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Havok launcher is the only thing that would be about the right size. Stick a couple of missle pods underneath should actually look pretty good, if a little larger than the traditional (but that one is a little weedy itself.

Rasclomalum Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 I suppose I won't really know before I have the bitz in front of me, so I'll just rattle off some other design ideas, mostly for my own sake (and anyone who might be tempted to make a non-standard Rhino out of a Razorback). Let's be honest here, that turret plate just begs for having conversion work done to it! *Havoc launcher is a great idea. *I suppose some greenstuff and other bits could make the mother of all dirge casters. *Converting the heavy bolter somehow to look like a combi-bolter or any other combi-weapon, probably not doable within WYSIWYG... *... or just a huge, rotating icon of chaos!

Subtle Discord Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yes, the Havoc Launcher seems the most logical because it's in the codex, the scale is about right, and the stock Havoc Launcher begs to be replaced. The combi-weapon could work if you split it to have weapons on one side and optics on the other, but I personally think the scale is still off; also, if you add a Combi-melta you want it up front to make every inch count. Never forget the Counts-As rule. If you really want to do something like a sonic weapon, go for it, and make it count-as a Havoc Launcher. You just need to let your opponent know that's how it will function, and any other similar looking constructions/conversions will be the same.

marvmoogy Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I haven't got my minis to hand, so not sure how this would be done, but..... Take the RB turret and the Typhoon MLs form a Land Speeder. Add in a bit of green stuff and hey presto! EDIT - just thought, that may take it into the realms of the Whilrwind :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285561-csm-rhino-with-a-razorback-turret/#findComment-3573160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnwulf Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 All things considered, havoc launcher and typhoon missles aren't that different... just the typhoons hit a larger area and are twin linked, IIRC....
