None of the subsequent mastiffs have lived up to the original Barbaretta version for me but I'm glad to see another that I'll actually buy, rather than the string of FW releases over the years.

They haven't actually specified that this Cyber-mastiff is for Adeptus Arbites, right? I guess it doesn't take a genius to connect the dots.

Also I agree that GW seem to love cyber dogs.


I know that the Arbites are for Kill Team. Would be nice to see some rules for using them in Necromunda though. Doesn't even have to be a playable gang, even a scenario or two would be good.

The stupid thing is they haven't officially revealed that Arbites are on the way formally, they just assumed we wouldn't notice them in the pdf I guess?

Well. Saw this and a Staffie (who received a fuss) on my wander home from my tattoo appointment.

This is a good day for my Dog fixation. For they are all good boys. Especially the Staffie who had a super waggy tail. Yes he did!

Yuck, that's got to be one of the derpiest cyber mastiffs since they started making models of them. It's got, like, a robot batman helmet with a bucket jaw and a cowcatcher muzzle? And nothing says "augmented dog" like something where all the natural pointy bits have been replaced by clunky looking machines but most of the squishy bits are still exposed.

Boring armor, boring bionics.

Then again, they did just make lord solar whoever, so maybe the imperium's new aesthetic is boringly robotic augmented animals with none of the personality or charm of a robot or an animal. Look out for the primaris update to space wolf cav, kids! Each veteran rides his very own Zoid wolf decorated in wolf pelts!

I like it. The only thing that I'd ideally change would be to give it a longer cybersnout.

Does that dog have:

I bet the new Arbites team will feature the recent damage mitigation trend heavily. It's the latest new trick in KT21 to bake in "codex creep" into a system which originally tried to make such things hard to implement.

It'll be all high fives and flexatones until the inevitable FAQ nerf bat. Sigh.

Modelwise, while this one actually resembles a Mastiff (big chest muscles and all), I can't help feeling a lil whelmed. The cybernetic augmentations seem uninspired somehow.. I could have understood either fore or hind legs being augments, but both? Makes for a very clumsy dog, I'd think

No, he's not that outrageous a dude unless he comes with alternate surfboard and cyberguitar bits like Poochie.

I mean, you're probably right and it's just a bit too much edge highlighting on his brows, but you absolutely could paint it as pit vipers

I wish they still had humour and did a cyberpoodle or something as a funny one-of A Cyborzoi or something like that may actually look intimidating, a cyber-dachshund less so

But you could send the cyberdachshund into the sewer network and have it ambush the criminals from behind...

That’s not the goodest boy… doesn’t even have its own servo skull for proper gooding…



Also no negging on the Dachshund. They were bred to hunt badgers in their lairs. I wouldn’t want to face off against a badger above ground, and the badger is in a sack, and I’m substantially larger than a dachshund!

I have the Cadian Pug. Dude does a whole set with a Krieg Dachshund in a gas mask(the reason I bought the set, I have 3 doxies).

Oh, I’ve got the Krieg Pug, and the other Pug alternates (Catachan, something else?).

Hadn’t seen this new dog though.

Who was the creator again?
