Malakithe Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Friday I'm finally ordering what I need to make a RWSS which is the vengence box and 3×speeders. My question is this: how many RW upgrade frames from the GW mainsite should I get?

o8oo Anarch Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Reading the speeder description: "...This box set contains one multi-part plastic Space Marine Land Speeder. This 60-piece kit allows you to assemble any of the three Land Speeder variants, including the Tornado and Typhoon pattern Land Speeders. This set contains an assault cannon, a heavy flamer, a Typhoon missile launcher, a multi-melta and a heavy bolter. Also included are Chapter symbols for the Blood Angels, the Dark Angels..." So actually not sure u need 1? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313980-building-a-rwss/#findComment-4177727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted September 21, 2015 Author Share Posted September 21, 2015 Isn't that just a transfer sheet? I was going to get the actual Ravenwing emblems and such Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313980-building-a-rwss/#findComment-4177767 Share on other sites More sharing options...
o8oo Anarch Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Well each sprue does come with lots of bitz, so I dont see you needing more than 1 for 3 speeders and the vengeance is already covered in icons and such.

ANevskyUSA Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 The Land Speeder kit comes with 2 plastic Dark Angels icons in addition to the transfer sheet. The plastic icons are of the Dark Angels Chapter symbol - NOT the Ravenwing company symbol. The transfer sheet has 2 Ravenwing icons - one is left-handed, the other is right-handed. If you want plastic Ravenwing emblems and/or all sorts of other Ravenwing bits, you will need to get the Ravenwing Accessory Sprue.

Malakithe Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Right that's what I was going to do anyway. I just want to know how many I would need Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313980-building-a-rwss/#findComment-4177936 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hidicul Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 I think it has enough bits for one full bike squad. 6 bikes, 1attack bike and a speeder, so for your three speeders you'd need three sprues Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313980-building-a-rwss/#findComment-4177971 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malakithe Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Ya that's what I thought. Spare parts never hurt anyone. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/313980-building-a-rwss/#findComment-4177993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabbadoo Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 The sprue comes with upgrade parts for 3 Ravenwing bikes, 1 Ravenwing Land Speeder, 1 Sammael Sableclaw Land Speeder, and 1 Dreadnought. See the sprue pic on the GW website: http://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/920x950/99080101005_RavenWingUpgrade.jpg Note the small Ravenwing symbols. There are 5 sets of two right/left facing verisons of the symbols. There are also many other Dark Angels symbols which are perfect for decorating vehicle doors/armor panels, to use as Land Speeder hood ornaments, etc. If you have the newer basic Land Speeder kit, you don't need this sprue for any weapons options (other than for Sammael's twin-linked Sableclaw weaponry), but you might want it for the symbols. If you have the older Land Speeder kit, and want to field Land Speeders armed with assault cannons or Typhoon Launchers, you will need ONE of these sprues for EACH basic Land Speeder to upgrade them. As you are ordering now, you should be getting the newer Land Speeder kit, so weapon options will not be an issue. I guess the only factor is how many sets of the symbols you want to have.
