Hello All,

After playing quite a few games with my wolves, i now know that i am really lacking anti air, upon reading Aeronautica i have discovered the gem of Space Marine Hyperios launchers, i want to do 4 of them including one command launcher.

I am thinking about using the following

and mounting it to the platform from this

Does anyone have any idea what sort of parts would be good to add some sort of claws to the base of the platform like the ones on the forge world ones?

Thanks in advance!

I used the three-footed ring mount for the icarus Lascannon, with whirlwind turrets as I already three lying around. It looks pretty epic But probably too expensive to do from scratch.

Cool thanks mate, just posted up a wanted, hopefully i can get hold of some!

Puppetswar do something similar that you can mount on an independant tracked base

I used a similar combo to get my Aegis line interceptor turrets:

Those tracked bases are quite cool as well actually, think i may go for something like that rather than the Icarus style mount

Yeah, I like the tracks as well (obviously) It has a nice rapid-redeployment feel to it, rather than having to load the launcher onto something for transport.

Try using the base of the Aegis Quad-gun (or the ring from the icarus gun), a Razorback Heavy Bolter mount (sans HBs), and mount the missile launcher pods from either a Landspeeder Typhoon or the Valkyrie onto each side of the gun mount.
Did the same thing with my Sisters Exorcist launchers (excuse the paintjob...this was quite a while ago when my fu was weak):



I would imagine the way people were scrapping ADL kits to get the guns for their Rifleman/Psifleman dreadnoughts their are tons of the bases available for trade.
I have 4 or 5 extras myself...I put the Razorback HB turret on them and use them for Sentry Guns.
