So I decided to add some sentinels to my Guard army. Going with the sort of recon theme, they're scout sentinels. There are 3 in all:


With all their magnetized options (because seriously, lascannons on BS3 models are a joke)




He's just so happy to be here!

Anyway, let me know what you think! I don't see many of them around... well, anywhere.

Where's the Iron Gob ingredient?

It's for June and I screwed up the date on the title card. Magnets are pretty sciencey though.

Oh, duh, Sentinels are fast attack.

Nice looking Sentinels.

Well, that's because they have to compete with vendettas and hellhounds. I like them, and yours look great, but they just can't compete in my book compared with the amount of hurt that 3 hellhounds can lay down. Having that been said, I actually have 10 of those guys I'm running in an Apoc formation this weekend.

These looked great in person during our game yesterday. Looked even better to me after I had a couple weapon destroyed results

On that note and what daedalus said.

I think Sents would be more valid if you could even just buy a Storm bolter or something to up their firepower.

3 Hellhounds are pretty awesome, but one Hellhound costs the same as this whole squadron!

Thanks for the comments everybody!

nicely painted.

But the ammo feeds don't change :( needs more Magnets!!!!!!!

I was thinking about magnetizing the ammo feeds but it seemed kind of unnecessary - just the lasboxes will work well enough, methinks. I might do that for the armored Sentinel squadron I'm working on next though - wouldn't want to cut off the plasma cannons' feeds, since they're pretty cool.
