Subject: Question about GW and the autocannon arm for the dreadnaught
|
|
Death-Dealing Ultramarine Devastator
|
So, I was looking on the GW website. I was unsure to put this here, or in the modeling section, but here it is. Does anyone know if GW sells the autocannon for the dreadnaught yet? I didn't see it on their site for the SM. Now if they don't, I was thinking about taking it off of a predator, and modeling a missile launcher arm into one. Any ideas on the best way to do that if GW doesn't sell it?

GW doesn't. Forge World does however and I've seen many people (including Grey Death) use Imperial Guard Autocannons instead.
Even so the predator doesnt have a TL autocannon.

So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now."

GW offers the:
-Assault cannon
-Multimelta
-TL lascannon
-Plasmacannon
-Missile launcher
with their plastic dreads.
TL heavy bolter and TL autocannon are still FW only.
Would use the assaultcannon-arm, saw off the ass-can and add 2 autocannons ( either pred or IG HWT ).
So spare plastic bitz should solve this.

That's true. I was actually looking for the forge world website. But i couldn't seem to dig it up. Even having a non TL autocannon arm is more of a representation of what you fielded than using a missile launcher and calling it a autocannon. That's just my opinion though.

I use the autocannons from the Aegis Defense Line's quad-gun:

This set is really cheap, and you can basically get both arms with it. I just cut down the struts the guns were sitting on and they worked great.
