Preceptor Count-as


Charlo

Recommended Posts

So I've got 2 Knights to build.

 

One will be a Gallant and the other (due to me having 4 Armigers) I'm thinking will be a Preceptor/ count-as Rex (plus it has a very cool/ flexible weapon).

 

Don't really want to buy the full Rex it when it's out as I'd only want the gun and the Scion bits (no interest in running Rex himself with the wolfy bits really) so was wondering what would be some good alternatives for the Laspulsar?

 

All bits considered!

You could use the alternative Hellfrost cannon from ComradeQuiche's Iron Wolf. Doesn't really look much like the Las Impulsor but it is clearly different to the other IK arm weapons and it is made to fit the Questoris chassis which makes it nice and easy to use.

Forgeworld sells something similar, as I think Hermanista made a nice Preceptor based on a laser which looked very similar.   Here is a link http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345486-hermanistas-knights-mechanicus/page-6

 

Alternatively, you could make something out of plasticard/tubes until a nicer version is available!

The Atrapos las cutter as a kit bash candidate is the obvious option, but finding a spare one? Unlikely. And it's a £185 model...

 

I think, if you're confident, I'd be tempted to take an existing weapon arm, and sculpt a barrel and details from green stuff. It's at the higher end of 'hobby skill' stuff, but with a few guides to help, it wouldn't be unmanageable I don't think.
