Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Supposedly it will be getting the cawl treatment I’d like to see an armored version with two of the same hvy weapons, a -1 damage ability, and a scout version with a normal hvy weapon and either a grenade launcher or hvy stubber with a pop up type ability, either allowing them to hide behind shorter terrain pieces, just effectively work as DE fire and fade type thing.

War of the Eagle Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 As long as I can use my old ones I dont mind the addition of a new guard walker. It will feel weird if they are the same data card and my old ones are just the runts of the litter.

MrKoolPants Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Up-gunned sentinels would rock. And something with shoot-and-scoot would go a long way towards survivability, and mobility for the army in general.

WarriorFish Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Is this the same rumour we heard before or something new? What is the "Cawl treatment" anyway, I'm guessing that means guns wherever there's room? I wouldn't mind a new Sentinel kit as long as it was adding options - the current kit isn't bad and is good with builds so it's not something I'd have put high on my list of needs. Maybe a good thing I never got round to adding those extra Sentinels I wanted then... Shamansky 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought three scout sentinels before that rumor dropped, so the joke is on me, I guess. I think sentinels fill an interesting spot in terms of scout move and mid-/high- Toughness saturation for vehicle heavy pure-Guard builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 Im not sure what I want it too look like, but I hope they move away from the diesel punk AT-ST look the current models have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarms48 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I hope it's the Drop Sentinel. Would be perfect as a Militarum Tempestus Heavy Support choice. They don't have any HS choices at all right now. duz_, OldWherewolf, 4CIN87 and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKoolPants Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Ooh Drop Sentinels. The FW sentinels with the servo arm had decent combat stats in 6th or something. Maybe something like that to support Scions/Bullgryns? Similar to the Sisters’ walkers? Little glass hammer combat beat stick.

Shamansky Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 So that's how 'lack of common sence and logic' is called: 'the Cawl treatment'. Please God Emperor don't let 'em do this to the army that at least looks like an army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave to Darkness Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Dang. Those models were rough. Yep, kinda cute though in their own way. I may hunt one down second hand, could never get hold of them back in the day. MrKoolPants 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commisar Necros Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I wouldn't mind a new variety of sentinel, but they kinda fill a niche pretty well. The Cawl treatment just makes them dreadnoughts, and we have better weapons platforms. Like LtcolCool said a melee version would be great. The chainsaw on them is worth exactly the 2 points it costs, so something besides the legends powerlifter that can fight and is a tank would be nice. Having that punch with a bullgryn sheildwall would be an interesting change-up than the infantry swarm/tank blitz meta that's come about. I like the scifi look of the old sentinels, but it really shows how far they've come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Sacrifice Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Hoping for a more detailed model, but I hope it retains it's practicality. I love that it's basically either a mobile heavy weapons platform, a light scout walker or a cargo lifter. I don't want Cawl to turn it into a battle suit.

I don't want Cawl to turn it into a battle suit.honestly I’m tired of all of the freaking detail on new models.I don’t need a bunch of tiny wires or tubes to complicate painting, or anything like that. Give the option of putting a stubber or one of those new grenade launchers opposite the main weapon and I think I’ll be happy. Edit Also give them option for either an assault cannon or a heavy bolter, for a primary weapon Edited April 20, 2022 by Inquisitor_Lensoven Slave to Darkness 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
