WG101 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I just bought a Forgeworld MKIV dreadnought second hand and I was wondering if it still has any rules in 8th edition because I can't seem to find it in the forgeworld Index Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353334-mkiv-dreadnought-8th-edition-rules/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt_Reaper Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I don't think the Mk IV was ever treated any differently to a normal dreadnought. So just use the standard dreadnought datasheet. Alternatively you could use the Venerable Dreadnought due the Mk IV's age.

Alternatively you could use the Venerable Dreadnought due the Mk IV's age. Main reason I'm asking is because of its loadout, a plasma cannon and chainfist combo that I don't know which dreadnoughts use Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353334-mkiv-dreadnought-8th-edition-rules/#findComment-5240706 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Those options are in Index Imperium 1. It can be a venerable or normal dread. The MKIV does not have a separate datasheet. Or potentially it's a siege dread loadout from the FW index.

Main reason I'm asking is because of its loadout, a plasma cannon and chainfist combo that I don't know which dreadnoughts use Just count the chainfist as a Dreadnought CCW and run it as a Venerable Dread w/Plamas Cannon & CCW - notthing says a Dreadnought CCW has to be a fist.

NovemberIX Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Plasma cannon and chainfist isn’t a legal combo in any codex or index in 8th unless taken as Syward suggested (chainfist counts as DCCW). Ironically the rules for the chainfist are in Index 1, IA: Index Adeptus Astartes, and Codex: Adeptus Astartes, but solely for the ironclad dreadnough.
