Hey,

Just curious before I think about getting some of the new Normal leman russ box sets if the turret mounted weapons can be swapped over like the demolisher kit?

Anyone able to verify this either way for me please.

**purplefood**

I gues... i haven't seen the kit so i don't know but from what i have seen people have magnetised their turrets so they can be swapped so i assume it is possible.

**MechaEmperor7000**

The weapons are swappable with whatever the kit comes with. I think the Demolisher Kit has a different turret hardpoint. The guy at a FLGS showed me the two but I didnt get a good look at the joint.

I think the Demolisher can make the the Punisher and executioner. The base leman russ can make the other ones, IIRC.

Sorry, I might not have been as clear as I should about what I meant.

In the demolisher kit the weapons clip in to the turret and can be swapped out as you wish, what I'm curious on is can the normal Russ kit also do this, or does one weapon have to be glued in place.

The normal leman russ has pegs, but i used blu tac to hold e top on, so it can be switched with ease and looks fine

**MechaEmperor7000**

The one the Store manager showed me easily clipped on and off. It's interchangable just like the Demolisher kit.

If you glue on the base, the basic LR can either have a short stubby barrel, or the Exterminator autocannons.

If you go with the stubby barrel, you can swap out the Battle cannon, Vanquisher cannon, and Eradicator cannon with ease, as they just slot in. However, the Exterminator cannons use a different first piece, and so can be harder to swap in an out.

the new LR kit is exactly like the demolisher kit, except weapon choices are different. the best feature is that the battle cannon and vanquisher cannon share the same barrel. there is a lower barrel that attaches to the turrent. then, the upper battle cannon or vanquisher cannon just presses into the lower cannon.
