zedmeister Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Spotted on Forgeworld: While checking out the latest Leviathans in the Studio I also caught sight of a new Space Marine vehicle in development. It looks to me like an older pattern of Damocles Command Rhino for Legion armies, take a look... http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources//fw_site/fw_blogs/2015/11/23/DFGOIJ435490POKJ/pic2.jpg Hopefully, we'll see the Whirlwind and Hyperios Deimos patterns (along with some improved rules ala Laser Destroyer Vindicator) soon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316365-deimos-pattern-damocles-spotted-on-forgeworld/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesh Kadesh Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 That is sweet! What Damocles pattern vehicles though? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316365-deimos-pattern-damocles-spotted-on-forgeworld/#findComment-4232917 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight of the Raven Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I believe Hesh Kadesh was referring to this part of your post... Hopefully, we'll see the Whirlwind and Hyperios Damocles patterns (along with some improved rules ala Laser Destroyer Vindicator) soon ...where I believe you meant whirlwind and hyperios Deimos patterns. I hope the Deimos pattern whirlwind will use the helios turret.

Knight of the Raven Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 As utterly awesome as your whirlwind looks, I'd rather paint only six missiles per tank. I still can't muster the will to paint my third hyperios turret. Plus, SCC's own whirlwind for his Shadow Force Dragomir is amazing. Front quarter image - mostly because I couldn't get the camera to focus properly from front on, it kept insisting on focussing on the launcher damn it's tiny little machine-spirit.Right -Left -Rear - Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316365-deimos-pattern-damocles-spotted-on-forgeworld/#findComment-4233007 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongGone Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 IHF, that's just the Aiolos missile launcher plonked on top, right? Because that makes me feel all tingly in my no no spot.

Iron Hands Fanatic Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Yup, its the whirlwind Scorpius with the launchers swapped out for the Aiolos missile pods - I figure it'd be quite a useful conversion for players with multiple lists, as you could use the same mini as either a normal whirlwind or the scorpius depending on what size game you're playing Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316365-deimos-pattern-damocles-spotted-on-forgeworld/#findComment-4233225 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesh Kadesh Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Does it use the same housing as a Rhino Turret? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316365-deimos-pattern-damocles-spotted-on-forgeworld/#findComment-4233266 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Hopefully, we'll see the Whirlwind and Hyperios Deimos patterns (along with some improved rules ala Laser Destroyer Vindicator) soon For what it's worth the Hyperios missiles on the Primus Redoubt PDF are listed as Heavy 2. Whilst this may well be a typo, it would go a long way towards making the weapon more useful. Perhaps that and a unique rule for the tank would help too.

Charlo Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 ....Deimos .....pattern.....whirlwind? Tooooootally using that as my Scorpius count as when I'm not using my Deredeo!

Trying to identify the parts.. the front hatch from the Rhino as the base, spare top hatches as the top and bottom of the launcher and what looks like a Lego brick...?!

zedmeister Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 You can thank a certain Mr Cottrell for that conversion. And this might help: http://the-lost-and-the-damned.664610.n2.nabble.com/file/n6641811/Whirlwind_build.jpg The launcher parts are actually the old square bases!
