hivey Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Would it be acceptable to use GW plastic Ravenwing bikes in place of FW resin bikes as outriders? Did those kinds of bikes exist during the heresy? Id kind of prefer to use the ravenwing bikes, due to them having iconography and such,and i prefer the look of them a little more.

Xenith Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 You can with no problems - they are just manufactured by a different forge world, and look less cool. The Ravenwing upgrade sprue has lots of icons that you could attach to 30k outrider bikes no problem, if the sculpted icons are the dealmaker.

AfroCampbell Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 slight sidenote, but it would be cool if FW released the Bullock pattern jetbike that Sammuel drives around that is on the cover of Brotherhood of the Storm :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/319215-legion-bike-marks/#findComment-4305802 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll have some slightly different rules to the Scimitar bikes too. Think difference between Tartaros and Cataphractii Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/319215-legion-bike-marks/#findComment-4306456 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think difference between Tartaros and Cataphractii That would be cool.... hmmm im curious what they could do different because the Scimitars don't have special rules themselves... maybe due to smaller size it loses Hammer of Wrath, but gains initiative +1 as it is more maneuverable .... hmmm i dunno.

Ironwithout Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Forgeworld have said alternative bike patterns will be coming. A WS specific bike unit is coming in the future. In the novels they even have a void capable jetbike Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/319215-legion-bike-marks/#findComment-4306491 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calas Typhon Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Need Iron Warrior specific ones, which are so heavily plated and armed up they look more like a leman russ. But seriously, new bikes will be glorious. I just hope they do not look like trash, as the current ones are a bit too smooth for me!

I own 18 and will without fail buy more of any other marks that are released. I do think some legions should have their own though. An IW bike would be epic!!

hivey Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 The current FW bikes being smooth is part of why i prefer the GW bikes. They dont quite fit with the look of the imperium, which is bulky and blocky and looking like theyre made to just smash through things.
