Things I've been noticing about the new drop pod:

1) It's AMAZING for orks. The hatches make great buggies. The support struts can be put together to also make platforms for buggies. The center datasphere makes a GREAT generator/engine, the shoulder harnesses are good weapon racks or ammo stores, the turbine is, well, a turbine, which orks can use great.

2) Chaos also benefits a lot. I'm working on a Dreadclaw conversion and it's going quite well. The support struts can also be made into a Hell Talon fighter easily enough if you can manage a cockpit from other materials.

3) The datasphere can be a great Imperial Objective marker too, or be used in terrain pieces as what it is just to add character to otherwise boring buildings.

I love this kit!

This thread should really go into the modeling section, since your singing the praises of the model kit and not its battlefield performance.

Yeah it should....I knew it existed but for some reason was blind while scrolling through the forum list and couldn't find it.

Hey, Spellbound, now I think you are getting nuts.

Where'd that quote come from? It's not from this thread...

Spellbound, sorry, but I yanked the wrong buffer.

Moved to modelling...
