Hey All,

I am pretty big on WYSIWYG in my army and I really want to put a warp bolter on my daemon prince. However there does not seem to be a bit for it, which is weird because GW usually doesn't have rules in the codex for things they don't make. I tried "warp bolter" and various different iterations of "warp bolter" on ebay, but nothing has come up. Anyone have any suggestions on where to get a bit (even non-GW) for a warp bolter?

I converted one out of a CSM heavy bolter body.

The standard CSM Daemon Prince model sold by GW has a Warp Bolter built into it's armor on the left arm. No need to get crazy unless you specifically want a different look or want to kitbash.

the warp bolter is the teeny little gun barrel bit poking out of the armored arm with the big claw in the standard kit.

"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"

"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"

"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"

"...which leads you straight into my trap, Kaiba, you see I now declare the stratagem Implacable Automata, reducing all damage from your attacks by 1 and triggering my All is Dust special rule!"

it seems in 8th they do that quite frequently.

tyranids has an HQ selection that GW never made a model of, and they wants us to kitbash a HQ GK Dknight.

I have an older model/conversion that doesn't have that little barrel, so that is not going to work. I was also thinking heavy bolter but that seems like it might be to big.

What HQ doesn't have a model for nids? Neurothrope? It's in the zoanthrope box.


These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

Warp Bolter, wtf is this? Do you mean Kai Gun or am I a few editions behind?

Please note, for those of you who play Chaos Daemons as a faction the term "Daemon" is potentially offensive. Instead, please play codex "Chaos: Mortally Challenged". Thank you.

The Warp Bolter is an upgrade for Deamon Prince's. It's a 3 point bolter with armor pen.

So I just bought the AoS model of Daemon prince because personally I think the w40k ones look like gak, so I am going to use Green Stuff and strap some sort of bolter to his arm, I've heard good things about the helbrute fist/bolter combo, might see if I have an extra one of those, just a thought but Green Stuff can make a lot of kitbashing options possible.

If you have a spare combi-bolter from the Helbrute kit, it fits nicely on the plastic DP wrist.
