hornywingythingy Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Since the basic dread kit has no ac option, let alone two of them, do you kitbash with guard ac or use third party bits?

Adeptus Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 You can get the arms from Forgeworld or a recaster, or you can convert your own from the Aegis Line Quadgun.

thade Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I also used the Aegis Defense line; it was a cinch. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292900-what-do-people-do-for-their-psyflemen-dreads/#findComment-3728048 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thade Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 That's an interesting way to do it; I actually just used the guns as-is off the sprue; the guns (if memory serves) just easily socketed onto the existing joints on the Dread. (Pretty sure I used an Ironclad Dread for this purpose, but I think those joints are nigh identical to the standard dread...and VERY different from the joints on the AoBR MM Dread.) I can snap some photos of it later tonight, I think.

Captain Coolpants Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I used the quad gun also. If you use a recaster it's much cheaper. I personally use yoymart.com. Although I don't agree with buying everything from recasters, using them for conversions and spare parts is amazingly convenient. Because let's be honest, to buy 2 dreadnought weapons from GW/FW, you've practically bought most of a second dreadnought (way overpriced) . I bought the quad cannon bits for only $8 (£4.70) per dreadnought. Cost me hardly anything to kit up 3 dreadnoughts, was £14.15 in total (^o^) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292900-what-do-people-do-for-their-psyflemen-dreads/#findComment-3728262 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trokair Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Forgeworld Contemptors for me, magnetised so that they can be equipped with Duel AC, MM, AssC, HB, DCW (Flamer/Stormbolter) or LC. Count as normal dreads for friendly games of 40k.
