Master Antaeus Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Fellow glory merchants, I saw this on Anvil Industries' new stuff page and I thought it might make an excellent stand in for a (possibly armored) sentinel: http://www.anvilindustry.co.uk/Mk4-Instigator I could also use it as a Taros, but to be perfectly honest, they are grossly overcosted and can't carry plasma cannons, which is what I intend to arm mine with. Let me know what you guys think. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/317442-tempestus-alternative-for-sentinel/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 From the looks of it it isn't very big, so that might be an issue but it does look cool.

march10k Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I love it...not sure I'd consider it a fit for the sentinel, though. Two major problems. First, it's too short and long, completely out of whack in a game where shooting at vehicles involves determining whether they're obscured...in most cases, this buggy would be far more likely to gain an obscuration save than an actual sentinel would. The other problem is that a sentinel has WS...this is completely implausible as a walker that can step on you, punch you in the face, or whatever. It does make a stupendous alternative tauros, though!

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Not for a sentinel, but hey how about the goliath that would make a pretty good sentinel. I'm almost convinced to get some of the anvil industry stuff, especially for running elysians...

walter h Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Agreed the goliath, would make an excellent sentinel. That instigater would make an excellent Tauros.

Akrim Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Agreed not for a Sentinel, it might be a cool counts-as for a Salamander Recon vehicle. I've been watching Anvil industries stuff for a while now. The Goliath is nice, I wish the Mechanicus' Kastellan Robots looked more like that than the 50s sci-fi look.

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 It's just a shame that anvil's stuff doesn't quite fit in with warhammer 40k's aesthetic. It's just a little off.

Stormborn Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Goliaths would work as sentinel, when I saw the instigator I thought of rough riders. Reviews says that instigator is tiny compared to 40k vehcles and anvil are working on a taurox sized vehicle.
