Niiice. Trying to think what the Triaros reminds me of... Necromonger tech maybe?

 

Yes!

 

In this verse, life is antagonistic to the natural state. Here humans in all their various races are a spontaneous outbreak. An unguided mistake. Our purpose is to correct that mistake... because there is another verse. A verse where life is welcomed and cherished. A ravishing ever-new place called 40k... but the road to that verse crosses over the threshold.

Anyone have any idea where the guns are mounted on the Triaros or how big it is as compared with, say, a Rhino and a Land Raider? It seems long and narrow, but it's hard to tell what the scale is.

 

I would guess that those tracks are exactly the same as the Krios, just with a much bulkier and longer center chassis. Instead of the Krios cog on each side it has access hatches. Transport capacity is 20 models, which you could interpret as 2x a rhino, but vehicle capacity varies wildly in relation to model size in 40k.

Someone needs to explain to the AdMech how to build a tank. Those Shot-Traps are hideous.

They rely on energy shielding to protect their tanks which explains why their tanks seem so fagile yet have high armor values. Also, that tank has a beard, your argument is invalid :p

Hmm.... I think they all are a bit... meh.... The Abeyant is kinda goofy... I think they took the "preacher chair" fluff a bit to literal, but the Magos looks pretty cool by himself.

 

Not a super fan of the Knights (except maybe the Lancer), and this one doesn't really do it for me either, even though they've managed to make it look very much a part of the AdMech models, with it's top shield looking like an over-sized cortexcontroller from the current Magos. 

 

I had high hopes for the Triaros, and while I do think it also fits in very nicely with the rest of the AdMech vehicles, it's a little bit... wierd... and where are the guns? pintle-mounted volkite chargers and the twin-linked mauler bolt cannon? please DO NOT tell me that the pointed "horn"-thing above the ram is supposed to be the bolt cannon!

 

Oh well... hopefully we'll get some more pictures of the new toys soon on the FW site :)

There seem to be unprecedented weapon options for the knights...one looks like a volkite (the one above), one like a lightning gun (magaera)

Also, Draycavac may come with a second head option...can anyone confirm?

Vorax Battle-Automata

Posted elsewhere here is the confirmation you are asking for. Posted by Kurgan the Lurker on this thread http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296369-fw-european-open-day/

I recognise them from a loooooooooong time ago, albeit these have had an update in appearance:

The top left robot happy.png The newer ones are far more hunched over, but I'm sure their effective the same thing! happy.png

rotary cannons =/

 

if those would be ACs...

 

Kheres would be amazing, even though Vorax melt to heavy bolter and autocannons (4+ save on a Monstrous Creature...urgh). Also, its a real shame their dorsal weapon just only a lightning gun, you'd never use it over the chem-flamer (that isn't even expensive to upgrade to).
