tdemayo Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 The "boat" shape seems like it would be good at deflecting shots. Sloped armor. But hell, it's a giant robot with gun arms.

lokkorex Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I can't believe i'm saying this but... Those missile launchers are a tiny bit too big, so i'll propably replace 'em with the normal contemptor cyclone launcher. I mean, they look big enough to fit on a whirlwind, man! (Hmm, now There's an idea...) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/301133-new-dreadnaught-coming/page/2/#findComment-3903650 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor's Furor Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Dunno what it is but I love Dreadnoughts no matter what they look like, I should really do a force based around them, even if they do tend to blow up quickly.

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 An anti-tank version with a chest-mounted multi-melta, arm mounted twin-lascannon / heavy conversion beamer & back-mounted twin-linked cyclone launcher?

Thrillhouse Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 The new dread looks very mechanicus to me. The big robots have a similar "boatshaped" hull dont they?

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Hey, steer that big dreadnought boat back on topic. An anti-tank version with a chest-mounted multi-melta, arm mounted twin-lascannon / heavy conversion beamer & back-mounted twin-linked cyclone launcher? I can dig it Or the Deflagrator variant with underslung calivers, arm mounted culverins, and shoulder mounted demi-culverins.

Raktra Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I think the ork player at my GW would literally cry. He already throws a temper tantrum when someone uses FW against him.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 The chieorovile is mounted on a knight, so it might be a bit much for a something that's sized between a dread and a knight.

helterskelter Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I think the ork player at my GW would literally cry. He already throws a temper tantrum when someone uses FW against him. Despite his Orks being from an IA book. I asked one of the managers of a gw about using 30k and he said its best to try organise games against other 30k chaps due to 30k vs 40k being unfair. Walk this new beast on a table vs a nid army to test this theory we must. Specially as i think those arm cannons are accelerators..

Specially as i think those arm cannons are accelerators.. I hope Unfair for the 30k player maybe, considering the entire army list is built on the idea you'll be playing 2500+ points, so every unit feels super expensive. It really grinds my gears when people automatically dismiss FW like that. But I will admit Volkite is nasty against hordes.
