kabaakaba Posted Saturday at 12:59 PM Share Posted Saturday at 12:59 PM Etb have no options. You can build it only one way. Obviously it's cheaper. If you just need lot's of intercessors it's a good variant. Also captain in terminator armour have etb version. The difference is how they hold weapon. Sword and storm bolter are in different hands Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387161-need-help-constructing-a-salamanders-army/page/2/#findComment-6144527 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacitus Posted Saturday at 09:51 PM Share Posted Saturday at 09:51 PM 8 hours ago, Lathe Biosas said: Thanks. I didn't realize there were different versions of the same model. Maybe that's why some auctions are cheaper than others? Less people wanting the ETB models? Yes, people are less interested in ETB Models. Sometimes they're not as high quality on the cut (Interceptors - the flying Gravis Shooters - had those gravplates on their boots look really bad in the ETB cut in addition to a change to their bolters which was less clunkier and they didn't come with the Plasma option) plus GW itself usually prices the ETB versions cheaper than the full kits, which means they markup from a lower starting point. And like I said before I think most of those kinds of kits have disappeared - there are still some pressfit/ETB but they're single option models like the Outriders or Infernusators. Its mostly only something to keep in mind if you buy open box sprue only stuff that came from the boxed sets like Indomitus and such. I think Indomitus had ETB Blade Guard Veterans in addition to the Outriders, when the boxed kit came with more options for posing and pistols.

Tacitus Posted Sunday at 11:09 PM Share Posted Sunday at 11:09 PM Yep, that's the sprue(s) they made for the Indomitus Box. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387161-need-help-constructing-a-salamanders-army/page/2/#findComment-6144681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lathe Biosas Posted Sunday at 11:31 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 11:31 PM Hopefully these models are worth using in my Space Marine army.

Lathe Biosas Posted Monday at 12:48 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 12:48 AM Nice. I was going to buy some Eradicators. Sounds like this was a good buy.

Tacitus Posted Monday at 07:09 AM Share Posted Monday at 07:09 AM Its a nice gimmick - put him with 6 BGV (he's mostly designed for them) and they get to Fight First with 20 some nasty sword attacks including his own. Put him with 10 Assault Intercessors and its 40ish chainsword attacks. The Justiciar's downside is that he doesn't have the Double Up ability secondary LEADERs have. If you attach him, that's it. No way to get his Fights First on another character like a smash captain.
