Well my MK6 army is coming a long, and I will need to add a dread in a month or two so I think I should give myself plenty of time to acquire one. So what one do you like the most?


Option 1


Option 2


Option 3

Option 3, easily. Least stupid dreadnought model ever put out. I'm picking up a couple Mark IV gray knights dreads when I go to bolster my SM army (they just look cooler >.&gt

Option 3. Definitely option 3.

The Rogue Trader dread is almost as bad as the "Big hug!" Carnifex.

Well the fact that I have a Chucky in my beekie army won't skew my choice of #1.
But the forge world dread is the bomb.

Number 2 would work great if you were to change the face to not suck as much. I'd remove it altogether. Just add a line for something like a visual sensor or something.

3rd option is also great.

1st is horrific.

Totally option 2! I love those 90s dreads!

I was gonna buy one recently just to paint, but I have recently become rather poor.

Totally option 2. I don't mind option 1 though.

#2. Love that model, especially updated like that.

I have one myself I need to strip and paint up. Not sure what I'd use it for though.

Option 3, unless you want to be nostalgic.
The first two kinda remind me of the bare-bones Wraithlord.....


Actually, you could get an Iron Warriors Dreadnaught and file off any chaos stars.

Congratulations, your dismissive and conclusory commentary has provided nothing to this discussion or the wider community on whose behalf you arrogantly presume to speak nor does it engage in any meaningful way the remark it lamely targets. But you did manage to gain experience points toward your next level of internet tough guy.

3... The other two are pretty bad.

"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.

While I'll admit I like the model in Option 2, if given a choice, man go with the FW Dreads - they're just so darn nice. The RT-era dreads on the other hand? Full of the suck.

Man, I wish there was a real Black Library where I could get a Black Library Card and take out Black Library Books without having to buy them. Of course, late fees would be your soul. But it would be worth it. - InquisitorMack

Option 3, FW dreads are very nice. Although #2 would be neat if you changed the face. I've never seen that version either, and think it'd be a nice stand out piece. But the face would have to be changed...
