Helias_Tancred Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Hail Brothers! Right now I'm looking at my completed Land Raider Redeemer wishing I had made it a Crusader so it would hold my 5 man terminator squadron, Captain Karlaen, AND my Sanguinary Priest in power armor. So is it that hard converting the redeemer to the crusader? Seems I just need to remove the side sponsons and refit them for the hurricane bolters right?

Quixus Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Either get new sponsons or if you can disassemble the sponsons you could go by this tutorial. Don't try disassembling, if you glued the parts together with plastic glue, though.

Helias_Tancred Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 Unfortunately yes I used the GW plastic glue thin :( ..... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302107-converting-a-redeemer-to-a-crusader/#findComment-3922375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Hmm maybe you can cut out the sponsons and buy the Crusader/redeemer upgrade kit. It looks like it has everything you need to follow the tutorial above except that you would maybe have to glue in the sponsons themselves depending how expertly you removed the previous housings.

Kaedes Nex Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 You can saw out the entire weapon system inside the housing, leaving just an empty sponson, then attach the Hurricane Bolter system, maybe with a brass rod. It will take some work if you want it to be able to swivel though.

Dom_ Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 If you built it allowing the sponson to swivel, then you should be able to snap the rod that rotates. This should then just lift out. With that free, get the upgrade kit linked above and use the new rods and weapons included to make one that you can swap out. On mine I just haven't glued the weapons to the rod. They stay put as its a tight fit, and you can interchange them quite easily. That's the easier way I can think of without using custom parts Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302107-converting-a-redeemer-to-a-crusader/#findComment-3922696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
