@soultang - Your kitbashing skills are great, but why does everything have jump packs? Do you have any terminators with jump packs, Typhoon launchers and twin plasma cannon lightning claws on bikes?

i only have one beef with that land raider, the rear lascannons should have been extended out, so that the ones in front arent blocking them, other than that, excellent conversions

DUDE, that LandYacht is a definate weapons fire magnet. the above statement is also my only problem with it. 2 dakka
the chickenwalker dreds are interesting. 2 dakka
your Hells Angels are great, very simple conversion, easily done, and looks good as well. 2 dakka
and this thing, whetever it is:

it looks like an organ throne for a sisters priest, at any rate it really looks nice. clean lines, good pairing of parts and has a nice overall symmetry. i say 3 dakka
the venerable dredds, and the rest of the bloods also look good, 1 dakka 10 dakka is all your gonna get outta me, since i HATE space marines.

Ought to run that as a Mega Armoured Big Mek, with PowerKlaw. Then you'd actually get that extra Klaw attack from the second klaw.

what??? why would it matter your already using the claw for the models attack characteristics surely the addition of another claw would only give you +1 attacks? it seems a waste of points having a pistol in the other hand or a choppa would give the smae benifit wouldn't it?

no, you only get an extra attack for a special CCW (eg PK) from having a second special CCW of the same type (eg 2 PK's)

Really...? Never played the game, these were inspired by the Sha Yu battle mech crossed with a Fire Ant mech from Mech Commander 2.

Fluff wise they weigh in at 35tons, have two Clan ER heavy pluse lasers with power and fire controll management, heavy MG array, light MG arry and a single Clan LRM ( ). How they act on the battle field dependes on what weapons management program is installed, ie' it can act as a Vanquisher, Exterminator, or a Punisher.

The Mk II if I ever get round to building them will have magitized weapons pods, a reinforced see threw cockpit and i may even put an LED in it to light the Mech pilots up in combat red light

@ ribbonfox: those sentinal to russ conversions are pretty cool! I really like the extended back. It makes it look much cooler and more threatening. I do have a few suggestion however to make them slightly more game friendly:

In my opinion the counts as should have apoxamatly the same profile as the original. I would base them on square bases aproxamatly the size of a Russ to help make it clear they are tank equivelents.

Weapons: I love counts as, it is a great way to run with ideas that are different from the norm and still play the same game as everyone else. However, I think that you should model the weapons accordingly. Magnets are yoru friends when you want swappable weapons, and counting a twin linked las cannon as a battle cannon stretches the counts as into the realm of proxy. I would suggest that you do a few more cool conversions and magnatize them, making sure to keep them similar to the original weapon they are meant to represent. When an opponent looks at the model they should be able to tell, oh I see that that super gatling gun is supposed to represent a punisher cannon. cool. Rather than: What is that twin linked las again? I keep forggeting and I'm not used to lascannons firing a big templat.

Rule of cool wins, and you have some great looking models there!
