Guilloom Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Well, have you seen this big guy on the FW website? https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-GB/Legion-Mastodon?_requestid=1437342 Looks like an oversized Taurox. Truly, when I saw it first, I believe he was surrounded by MT Scions instead of SoH Marines. Does someone have a glance at its rules? Could it be added to an IG force? Such monster could really be a nice addition to the MT or AM... or at least makes the Taurox (the small ones) more "army-friendly"!

HackedDuck Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources/PDF/Datasheets//Mastodon-Rules.pdf The rules are here Unfortunately it's only for space marines :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325188-a-very-big-taurox/#findComment-4480779 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 A big model, with a big points tag... and rules to match! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325188-a-very-big-taurox/#findComment-4480835 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inso Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 What that is, isn't a Space Marine vehicle. Oh no, it certainly isn't that. What you have there is the front end of a Squat land train. Replace melta array with volcano cannon and away we go. Choo-chooo :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325188-a-very-big-taurox/#findComment-4481172 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guilloom Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 I like it and I want one... Me too... if I had the coins to afford it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325188-a-very-big-taurox/#findComment-4481843 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inso Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I love this vehicle. It's like a Landraider on steroids but it is just SO business like... It looks like it could drive through hell and disgorge it's payload of troops unscathed. I still think it has more of an Imperial Guard feel about it... but I guess in 30k it would have been the equivalent of a Landraider because the squads were so much bigger back then :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325188-a-very-big-taurox/#findComment-4481878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 This thing would look exceptionally cool in an Imperial Guard army, though I do have to say it does still have a space marine vibe to it.

Indefragable Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 My club is calling it the ice cream truck. Besides the nearly $400 USD price tag, I just can't ever see taking one in a game under like 5000pts. But that's me. Looks neat-o.

WarriorFish Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 700pts, and considering it's a transport with lots of room you're going to want to fill it with nasty things that will warrant the expense... so maybe you're looking at something approach 1500pts for the lot or something crazy like that! Definitely one for the 30k/Apoc scene. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/325188-a-very-big-taurox/#findComment-4483033 Share on other sites More sharing options...
