Hi All,

I have had a bunch of dreadnoughts for a while that I got in a bundle.

However, I don't know what kind they are, can you help me identify them?

Thanks in advance!

If you ever play with "that guy" remember this :
"there may be times when you are not sure exactly how to resolve a situation that has come up during play. When this happens, have a quick chat with your opponent and apply the solution that makes the most sense to both of you (or seems the most fun!), If no single solution presents itself, you and your opponent should roll off, and whoever rolls the highest gets to choose what happens."

Hanskrampf has the right of it.

The 1st dread though isn't the chaplain dread. It looks to be a whole mishmash of dreadnought parts.
-The main sarcophagus looks to be from the Blood Angel Death Company dread with custom wings.
-The legs could be from the old metal Chaos dreadnought, judging by the trim, although they look like they've been given added length.
-The cloth and censer is from the Ravenwing upgrade frame.
-As for the exhaust. Kinda hard to tell. It looks vaguely like the old metal ven dread exhaust, but I think it's just someone imitating it.

Yep, that first dread could easily be run as a venerable (main codex) or chaplain (FW).

The first Dread is the old Venerable Dreadnought in metal.
The second is Ironclad
The 3rd is a plastic Venerable that replaced Number 1 in March 2011
The 4th is a Librarian Dreadnought (Blood Angels)
The 5th is a Death Company or Furioso Dreadnought

It's not.

This is.



The two share similarities, sure. The one in the OP is very likely someone's best imitation of the old metal one.

Ahhh, it was the winged exhaust that tricked me.
