So an apoc game is coming up and I need ideas for an extra whirlwind without dropping 57$. I have a TON of typhoon missiles but no place to mount them onto. any ideas?

Picking up a Rhino would of course be your first step, a razorback would be even better. Using the razorback top plate you now have your mounting point. If you chose the razorback kit, just mount the missile pods to the weapons mount and you are good.

I do, but how do I attach them without ruining the turret part?

1. Buy a new turret and use that.
2. Make one from PlasticArd (very VERY hard)

both options unapealing right now X-X but I may as well buy the turret.

For a quick fix you could make something as simple as a missile rack on top, like the Russians used in WW2. Doesn't have to be a super fancy turret, just a basic rack to mount the missiles on at an angle. Should be an easy build.

You could also build a very simple box out of plasticard to house the missiles, mount it on some kind of basic pivot/angle out of bits or tubes, old pens etc. Kind of like modern real world multiple rocket launch systems. And voila, a whirlwind for your game!

turns out, I have magnets powerful enough to hold together on a razorback turret. just need to make another typhoon set.
