So I finally had some time to updated the datasheets for some of my creations as seen in the Fellblades of Renown thread ( http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/326420.page)

A few of you may remember them as Fellblades (until Forge World made theirs), and others as Glaives (until, once again, Forge World made theirs), but now I give you the preliminary rules for the Gladius super-heavy and it's variants updated for 6th Edition Apocalypse 40K!

Let me know what you think as they are still WIP:

I'll give you credit that they're well balanced, far more so than some of the other stuff you see on here, but overall they're a bit "meh". They're just slight variations of the Baneblade chassis, such as the Shadowsword, Stormblade etc, packing your standard Super-Heavy weaponry such as Turbo-Laser and Inferno cannon. Forge Worlds Glaive is a bit more unique in that sense as it's a line-of-effect Voltike weapon with additional rules, perhaps you could create your own devices to make these variants more interesting?

Thanks Valkyrie, I appreciate the feedback.

I didn't want to get too crazy with the special rules as they tend to slow the game down. More or less this is just to offer the Space Marine player another super-heavy option with a little color to it. Something that was a step up from the Baneblade but not quite the equal of the new Fellblade and Glaive rules.

So yeah, "meh" was what i was going for
