m_r_parker Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 New releases for this week: Rapier Quad Mortar: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/SPACE_MARINE_RAPIER_QUAD_MORTAR.html http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Images/Product/DefaultFW/large/99550101455_SpaceMarineRapierQuadMortar01.jpg http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Images/Product/AlternativeFW/large/99550101455_SpaceMarineRapierQuadMortar02.jpg The Rapier Armoured Carrier is an ancient device, one of many such technological relics of the dawning days of Mankind’s stellar empire. It is a bulky, armoured track unit, which mounts a powerful antomantic reactor and is capable of carrying weapons heavier than even a Space Marine could easily manage. The long-range firepower of the quad mortar, one of the Rapiers many weapon options, is used to suppress enemy troops and even crack through their armoured bunkers. The Space Marine Rapier Quad Mortar can be taken as part of a Legiones Astartes army in Horus Heresy games, for which rules can be found in the Legiones Astartes Crusade Army List. It can also be used in Space Marine Armies in standard games of Warhammer 40,000. Rules for using this unit in Space Marine Armies can be found HERE. This complete, multi-part resin kit is supplied with two Space Marine crew in MkIV ‘Maximus’ Armour. This kit is available to pre-order today for despatch from Friday 14th August Space Marine Pintle Mounted Weapon set: http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/SPACE_MARINE_PINTLE_WEAPONS_SET.html http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Images/Product/DefaultFW/large/99550101459_SMPintleMounted-WeaponSet02.jpg Adding firepower to vehicles from the lightly armoured Javelin Attack Speeder to lumbering super- heavy tanks, pintle mounted weapons are ubiquitous in the armies of the Legiones Astartes. Heavy bolters and heavy flamers decimate enemy infantry whilst multi-meltas burn through the hulls of their tanks. The Space Marine Legion Pintle Weapons set consists of two multi-meltas, two heavy flamers and one heavy bolter as well as gunner arms and pintle mounts for each weapon so you can upgrade up to five vehicles. It also includes a solid cupola and twin linked bolter cupola for upgrading Deimos pattern Rhinos and vehicles based on the same chassis. This is a multi-part resin upgrade kit consisting of twenty four parts.

Reyner Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Sweet, time to replan my Iron Warriors and get myself those transfers and a Quad Mortar or 3.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 It seems odd to me that the banner decals are weathered as though they were actually metal.

Slips Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Anyone notice a slight discoloration of the Resin between the Track Assemblies and the Rest of the kit? I'm assuming its just the pictures..

Doctor Perils Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Does anyone no if these (the quad mortars) will also be included for Chaos Space Marines ? Because if so, they might well be my first ever Forge World order (along with a couple of other things of course...).

Ishagu Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Hold up... It's now for 40k too!? With Chapter Tactics?? This unit is hands down superior to a Thunderfire cannon.

Not to mention it looks far more awesome than the Thunderfire... EDIT: and the variant codices (BA, DA, SW) and forge world armies also get them, which is brilliant !

For the moment, it looks like your only options are the five choices on page 124 of IA XIII.

Leif Bearclaw Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 OK why do you only get 1 Heavy Bolter in the pintle kit? That's pretty annoying when you get 2 of the other two.

Barabbas Sogalon Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Now I can finally start working on some Iron Warriors. I still don't like that mortar. Prefer the look of the thudd guns.

rendingon1+ Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Nice model. Pity FW still thinks it's unnecesary to add "pinning" to HH version . Unless they did in errata nd I'm not aware of that.

Lord Tharand Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm digging the new releases. I'd probably even buy the quad mortar if I didn't spend like 1 million space bucks on FW stuff at GenCon!

StruManChu Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Hold up... It's now for 40k too!? With Chapter Tactics?? This unit is hands down superior to a Thunderfire cannon. You get three of these for ~120 points less than three Thunderfire Cannon, which is plenty to spend on a Techmarine separately if you want Bolster Defences and Repair, which otherwise you'd lose, buth that's the only downside I can see to taking them. Also, £6 each less in cost terms, which is not bad at all. I dig the Mk IV crew, though I can understand why others might not, and I'm a big fan of the pintle-mount weapons. My Rhinos need never feel naked again!

It doesn't ignore Cover. It's really not. Sure you can take multiple, but, BS6 ignores cover is amazing.

1ncarnadine Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Don't get me wrong, I love the DKoK Thudd Gun, but it really looks out of place in an advanced, galaxy-conquering, all-environments army of super-men. Love the new Quad Mortar, and I really appreciate that they're giving us alternate armour mark crew. Did anyone else notice there's still an unreleased MkII Rapier crew that was previewed at the WW Reopening? I wonder how they'll release these guys. Honestly it would make more sense to just sell the crews and Rapiers separately wouldn't it? Maybe they'll make a move that way eventually, or we'll see a new Rapier weapon.

DuskRaider Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The DKoK Thudd Gun definitely doesn't look out of place, depending on your army. Iron Warriors, Death Guard, World Eaters... I think they'd look great and fit these armies well.

WolfOfHorus Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 All of rapiers look odd and out of place, this is no exception.
