I surely don't recall saying that MY army was the only one affected by GW's greed, but the fact remains that this dreadnought is still sitting on MY desk, unfinished, waiting for me to fabricate parts that should have been included in the first place.

Just sayin, the Valkyrie only has one lascannon.

And besides, guardsmen players generally have enough spare lascannons to just, idk...make a vendetta from a valkyrie?

The 3 twin linked lascannons should have given away that I was refering to the vendetta. The Valkyrie model GW sells does not come with the lascannons, that would make it into a vendetta. And I prefer to use my lascannons in my heavy weapons squads.

I know, that's what I meant

You can't finish it because you have to build an extra set of arms? Can you cite where GW says they give you the option to build one of every option in the kit?

You get three torsos... why aren't you complaining you can't build 3 dreads?

The kit gives you the --> *OPTION* <-- of which Dread you build from the kit. GW have never endorsed the idea behind magnetising otherwise they'd sell magnets

Just because it doesn't give you the parts to make EVERY option isn't reason to have a pissy fit.
Consider the fact that GW sell these kits with the three-in-one option. You call them cheap?

If they were really cheap and really wanted to rip you off, they just sell each setup individually.

Cry moar plox.

MODS, feel free to lock this thread. Apperantly no-one on here is willing to try and understand the real reason for this thread, save 1 or 2 good people. The rest of them are responding solely for trolling purposes.

Apparently you don't communicate the "real reason" for this thread then.

You ranted and called GW some offensive names because they didn't provide enough fingers to make multiple arms.
You didn't address the fact that the kit never advertises the capability to build multiple arms, nor does it include enough to make one of every option. (you only get one set of legs iirc).

tl;dr - Instead of exploding and ranting on the internet next time, perhaps you should calm down and work around your situation.
Despite what you may think, posting on the internet will guarantee that you get other peoples opinions, and rarely will they be 100% in line with yours.
