Subject: Venerable Dreadnought - include a multi melta?
As title does the Venerable Dreadnought include a multi melta? Looking on G.W's site pictures doesn't appear it does, which is weird as standard wargear.
Can anyone confirm?
Thanks

Doesn't show up in the list of supplied pieces either, so I'd go with no. You may be able to snag an Assault on Black Reach dread pretty cheap on eBay and they have the MM standard. You'd just have to gussy up the dread itself to make it look "venerable".

Stupid as the multi melta is standard wargear. I was thinking AOBR Dreadnoughts but I like the funky detail on the Venerable. I wound if I could get a normal Dreadnought multi melta and make it fit instead.

Waiting for my shill money from Spiral Arm Studios
Only the AoBR dred has a MM. neither the standard nor the Venerable has a MM.
this is a hangover from the 4th ed codex that had Assault Cannons as the standard armament.
you will either have to buy a AoBR dred or shell out for a FWMM arm.

Sorry again about the confusion, was in the process of dashing out when replying and trying to find the reference. Misunderstood what was said on the video.
Guess there is always a chance of picking something up on ebay
Would it be possible to add some of the decorations from the venerable kit onto a AoBRMM?

You could take the missile launcher arm (that rarely gets used) and put a Multi-Melta on the back end (that way when you rotate the arm 180 to put it on the right side the gun points forward.
This example is the flame cannon i use when i want a Siege Dreadnought. Using a MM should be just as easy:

Buy or scrounge a multi-melta from a Demolisher - they're perfect.
This is a good idea, I never tried those parts to see if they fit. The Ven also comes with spare "shoulder skin" pieces you could probably put over the black reach dread arm.
