Cool concept I've always loved recovery vehicles. Have you looked at the Forge World Atlas Recovery tanks for inspiration?

does the forge lord count as a Master of the Forge?


Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, "If I Die, You are forgiven. If I Live, I will kill you." Such is the Rule of Honor.

Solid background, and such a good idea on bringing the 2 multi-meltas together by sharing the middle fuel tank.

Consider this as inspiriation for a Salamanders landraider concept of mine, and I can't wait to see the continued work.

"I.. I know my time has come" Tethesis said with a gasp, a torrent of blood flowing from his lips.
"No! Hang on brother!!" Altharius could feel the warmth slip away from his dear sibling's hands

Tethesis's reached out his bloodied arm to Altharius's face.
"I..I have one final request"
Altharius leaned close to listen, tears welling in his once bright eyes.
"make sure th..they put my soulstone in a tank... it'll be... real fethin' cool"
"Yes, you're gonna be the most fethin' cool tank!!" burning hot tears streaked down Altharius's face, as he held his brother's soul in his grasp.

That is great and really Scifi I really like the grasping hand idea. Any plans on stats and use in the game? Can't help but think it should be able to fight in CC with those claws!

Funnily enough I get asked the CC question a lot. I always saw the Herc as a more defensive rather than offensive vehicle...there to transport the Techmarines and servitors to wreck sites and then recover whatever they need to. The arms are fully poseable on the model...the idea behind them was to help the Techmarines move large components or cut up twisted wreckage rather than be useful in combat. I always envisioned them being rather ponderous in their execution...though if a Dreadnought was foolish enough to get too close it would be quite fun to have the arms snip off a leg or two

I went with an Assault Cannon and Twin Linked Multi Melta (yes I know they don't exist...but it looks cool) for one simple reason; 24" range on both weapons means the Herc will spend any time firing to defend itself rather than going looking for the enemy, which is in keeping with it's role. I also have a scenario in mind where the Herc has to tow a damaged Predator/Rhino to safety, which could be fun.

wow this is a really cool project, its a very unique take on the land raider

Looking good methinks!

i like the defensive weapons loadout and the salvage arms are pure gold.
Perhaps some filing/puttying on the defiler arms to make them look less baroque/chaos?

It's a brilliant concept definately in keeping with the chapter idea at the start of the post.

I woudl consider giveing the arms some sort of CC statlien, if only to defend the tank if an enemy tries to assault it. Give them something like S10, I1, A2 or something.
Mayeb also make it o they give a nice modifier to the MoTF vehicle repair roll.

With the Magna-Grappler comign in the new BA codex mayeb you could adapt those rules so you could lift/shunt enemy vehicles.

What is with all of the thread necro lately?

"From the fires of Betrayal unto the blood of revenge we bring the name of Lorgar, the Bearer of the Word, the favored Son of Chaos, all praise be given to him. From those that would not heed we offer praise to those who do, that they might turn their gaze our way and gift us with the Boon of Pain, to turn the Galaxy red with the blood, and feed the hunger of the Gods."

Thanks Insaniak.

I have just got myself a new Ottlite lamp so maybe I can get some decent photo's done for this model now. I have finished the dozer blade and sprayed it up so I will be doing some shots of the whole thing put together (probably tomorrow when I get a few spare moments).
