I really like the AFV, but I cannot see the mutant as being a leader.

Edit: Sorry about that, the link worked for me until I logged off. Swapped to image from Rackham site.

Erm...what?

Pictures or links please.

Doesnt work

From figous.net

That vehicle looks superdeformed. Kinda like a Fisher Price toy.

And yet more pre-painted 'Meh' from the French (Modified by inquisition)

That ground car is ridiculous in so many ways....I recommend using the vehicles from Pig-Iron.....

i dunno i reckon i could use that armoured car as an Arbite patrol vehicle and use sentinel rules

The owner of one the FLGS here is excited for ONI mostly because their vehicles are so generic Sci-Fi.

So, lemme get this right, they're mercenaries, and the boss is a Zombie? Yeah...

Type 1's, half the Type 2's, and Type 3's are Zombies. Samedi is a Zombie(who is a Rank 1 Officer). the other 2 Heroes, however, are NOT Zombies.

No thats like saying Nork Deddog is the boss of Imperium.

He is just a special char

right, i like some of these minis, but could someone explain what i should be looking for to find the AFV, what faction is it? etc

This AFV is for ONI, which is released later this year. There's also a larger 6 wheeled Chassis version to be released.

Yeah, the proportions on that vehicle are ridiculous... and perfect for orkifying. That there would make a great basis for anything from a large guntrukk to a flakkatrak (er, flakkawheel?).

True dat, I gunna be takin dem and mebbe convertin them ta trukks or buggys.

I'm not sure what people have against pre-paints. The models themselves look kinda odd (the vehicle is just goofy, looks like a toy), but the paintjob doesn't look half-bad, looks ten times better than anything I could slap on a model myself, anyway.

Seriously, would you people prefer playing against unpainted plastic or primer armies instead of pre-paints? I don't really understand the hate at all.

The real Byron Samedi. >_>

Given those two options in a void the pre-paints, but I would much rather play against an unpainted army knowing that my opponent will then personalize his army and make it really his own by painting it. This makes playing vs unpainted worth it in the long run. Having your army be painted by hand makes each person's army unique and interesting, and is a very important part of the "40k experience" for me.

But that's also part of the problem with 40k, a lot of people can't be bothered, so you'll likely play primer armies most of the time and not get the full experience.

At least AT-43 players don't have that problem.

As Rackham have failed to get some of the basic troops back into production following their corporate failure, they can take AT-43 and shove it.

While I am no expert, and i am sure that a "lot" of the forum guys will be the opinions of what is or not used for "real" in the military, i cannot see why all the hate with a Sci-Fi mini that doesnt look so differetn to the links below.... even though if the "real" APC look as strange as the Oni vehicle... it only seems to me pure and unreasonable hatred... Its not like in the Rhino can actually fit 10 marines isnt it?

I actually like it... it resembles a Saxon. My one criticism is the wheels. They're way too big!

well the LAV commando does not have too samll wheels eithher.... I mean you may like it or not, but it is NOT that unrealistic

I like it the APC, enough to have ordered the box from HBMC's sponsor. While I don't play AT-43, there is plenty of scope for using the vehicle in developing 40k scenarios or in campaigns. Certainly prefer the chasis to the Rhino chasis.

Have you ever ridden in an APC? It's pretty cramped. And 10 Marines CAN fit in a rhino. There was an old picture floating around the web of an old style rhino where somebody had stuck either 10 landspeeder crew or attack bike crew in a rhino and they fit just fine. Seeing as how the new Rhino is bigger, it should be no problem.
