I'm sure there may have been similar comments on other DA topics but this is more about the dreadnoughts in general

Mortis Pattern Dreads are still a FW only addition to Dark Angels which surprised me a bit, but more than that was this a missed golden opportunity for GW to finally include an official dreadnought kit that included 2 Twin inked Autocannons? After all we're still scrounging around for FW or 3rd party makers for those arms

I am still pretty surprised GW completely ignored the two only pre-established DA-affiliated units, the Land Speeder Ares and Mortis Dreadnought. Would rather have had those then this Darkshroud bs.

It really is quite ridiculous with no official autocannon arms. And why no official GW Mortis dreads with various other weapon configs as well? Why are they FW-only, when FW isn't allowed in a lot of places? Bah.

I'd need at least two pairs of those TL autocannons, but that costs £32 from FW, which is frankly quite ridiculous. And I could use a missile launcher for my BT Dread, because the damned Venerable kit didn't come with one for who knows what reason. They really ought to include all Codex-legal options with all kits.
