It's a 10 piece set:

- Two cables
- Two power capacitors
- Turntable
- Two mounts
- Gun in three parts

Where are you finding that parts list?

The Belicosa Volcano Cannon looks like it has six pieces just for the gun, along with two cables and two capacitors. That makes ten without the platform.

I hope you are right. (edit: in aswer to zedmeister)
I expected them to show the turntable if it were included.

The 10 piece set could also be:

- 2 cables
- 2 power capacitors (made of 2 parts each)
- Gun in 4 parts (barrel, "body", 2 part armor plate)

Eager to see more details.

I really hope the turntable is part of the kit...

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have a replacement platform but the FW page doesn't show it and people on Facebook are posting screenshots of FW stating that the platform is not included. Take that as you will.

I think you're right. I can see what look like joins on the power supplies and the top of the gun.

I see no reason why Forgeworld would decide not to show it at all on their site if they included it.

It’s clearly an IT hiccup rather than anything nefarious.

That's a bummer... I really hate that it wasn't communicated properly beforehand that you would need a brand new kit in order to assemble it. :(

Ok, definitely not including the turntable looking at Forgeworlds comments

Waiting for fw site go go back up. Grabbing some other at and necromunda stuff alongside. Wish they had brought out the volkite weapons alongside this, made an event of it.

There seem to be a fair number of alternative turntables that can be 3D-printed and used, but we shouldn't have to do that just for the dubious pleasure of fightning with FW's resin...

The lack of turntable is ridiculous, this makes it the first weapon for AT that essentially requires you to go buy an entirely new titan. The central appeal of this game is the modular nature of the titans and weapons, it's like they didn't get the memo.

Not really, you can magnetize the pack separately, assuming you didn't glue the ammo pack already.

That's the whole point, this thing is only useful to people who buy a new warbringer, anyone with one already built can't just conjure the turntable. They could 3d print one though I guess...

I now get the impression that the Warbringer was originally meant to have a second plastic sprue and released with a miss print of weapons cards, which wasn't a problem as the starter and old rule set contained the missing volcano card anyway.

And yet, somewhere along the line - due to covid, and production delays - they off loaded the Belicosa onto Forgeworld, whom graciously included a weapon card without realising that the Warbringer kit already has one, but have also overlooked the turntable component.

Unlikely, most extra weapon are resin and the uber huge Warmaster probably took all the plastic production slot for everything else AT-related.

Well, they lost a sale here. To be fair, this is much more in line with how GW usually operates.

Maybe someday I'll pick up another Warbringer so I can field a Ruptura maniple. But that's not even my main legio, so.

Anyone know of some third-party options?

Even if you’ve glued the existing ammo packs, it’s pretty easy to magnedtide the two carapace weapons.

Pick a side of the support, bung a magnet on it. Trim down the guns peg on the same side, replace with a magnet and job’s a good’un,

Central appeal for me is God Machines, not modularity.

Maybe keep an eye on a 3D printing service called Battle Bling, incase they do. They have printed stock of their items for very reasonable prices and depending on location, free p&p. For another example, check THIS out....

Yeah, I used their alt head on my Warbringer.

I'm sure there will be 3D printed platforms coming soon from various parties. Still doesn't make me want to rush to buy the FW cannon piece, mind you.

While it still feels like a change of plan, there is merit in what you say.

The Warbringer terminal is very specific in what weapons it can take, and so while it has been released in a very awkward way, the Belicosa is the only "extra" weapon in this case. The missing reaver weapons are technically available right now, and would be about £11 each in resin compared to one of the reaver sprues at £15, which is packed with many other components that can be shared with other warbringers and reavers. Also, I wonder if a reaver head would make a good alternative for a Warbringer...

Also, from the videos and images I have seen online, the carapace weapon doesn't seem to be designed with magnets in mind. Its worth pointing out that the arm weapons are clearly designed for doing so, so why not provide a clear magnet connection for the carapace while they are at it? Therefore it seems that this Belicosa may have been designed to be a permanant fixture on a Warbringer...

Of course, they may even offer their own alternative.

I was hoping to buy one. But no turntable, no sale.....I've glued my Quake to the mount. I was expecting another plastic sprue with alternative weapons, seeing all the warbringer weapons, including the turn table were on the same sprue.

Yeah, I glued it in place also. I found that without glue, the cannon suffers from Projectile Dysfunction (PD).

This one is great, sadly it's out of stock for obvious reasons but well worth it. The nice part is you can just swap it out with the quake cannon and still leave the quake shells in the back if you want.

This whole thing rubs me the wrong way.

Was seriously thinking about ordering it up until I saw the lack of dias.

It just sucks we're not getting a new head option or arms either.

Should have been a plastic sprue with all of the above. Probably got eaten by the 4th sprue in the warmaster box.

Or sprue #5 on the Imperator
