Kierdale Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I thought I'd just drop off this link to an excellent kitbash of a Chimera with a Taurox that a friend linked to on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/eaviermetal/permalink/1094050037325873/ The track sections of a chimera put on the sides of a Taurox. Surprisingly impressive. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323083-tormera-chimrox/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoffeeGrunt Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I really like it, actually. Almost makes the Taurox seem like a worthwhile buy. Almost. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323083-tormera-chimrox/#findComment-4416296 Share on other sites More sharing options...
librisrouge Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Personally, I hate it. However, I'm sure there are several tech priests who hate it even more (and are preparing a crusade against tech heresy.)

Inso Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 It isn't bad, nice paint and the idea is good... but leaving the side doors on and then having the tracked units up against them looks wrong. If the doors weren't there, it would look much better. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323083-tormera-chimrox/#findComment-4417392 Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I really like it, actually. Almost makes the Taurox seem like a worthwhile buy. Almost. Try this: All it takes is a really inconvenient kit from Victoria Miniatures, and the 'rox rocks!

CoffeeGrunt Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Shame about the rules tho. Not my style sadly. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323083-tormera-chimrox/#findComment-4417584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I dunno about the rules, but the stats/cost are horrible...the truck I posted above is set up for long range fire support...a CML and a TLAC is not bad, and it really is the best the stormtroopers have available, but that's 100 points for AV11 (at least a 100 point landspeeder can jink!), 115 if you want 4+ obscuration via cammo netting...that's really close to AV14 pricing! ...like your new avatar!

CoffeeGrunt Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Yeah, the Taurox is priced as superior to the Chimera, and I can't help but feel that it's inferior, personally. I just can't see myself running it, tbh. I'm a fan of Lotara, so I quite like the new avatar. ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323083-tormera-chimrox/#findComment-4418033 Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Oh, I would definitely never run a taurox or a taurox prime in an IG list, I've got chimeras pouring out my ears and they're superior to a 115 point prime at barely more than half the points! But in a pure stormtroopers list, not only is there no other ground vehicle in town, there's also no other source of ranged antitank fire. Parking a truck with camo netting behind a mound of rubble for an AV11/4++ isn't ideal, but it is the best I can do for swatting transports and stuff.
