Quick question. What is this weapon in the pics of this tutorial? I got some in a bag of bits from a trade and I have no idea what they are. A google search of "oop lascannon" didn't help so I'm assuming it's not that.

It's an autocannon.

Thank you!

More specifically, now that I'm not typing on my phone, I'm reasonably sure it's from the IG heavy weapon team. Should be a fairly easy conversion if you're looking to make one yourself.

Yup. Plastic autocannon from the imperial guard heavy weapon teams. Relatively modern.

The older autocannons had a box magazine fitted to the upper rear receiver instead of the drum that that one has.

I much prefer the Forge World "upgrade" autocannon. It's much nicer looking.

Actually I'm glad it's an IG autocannon... I'll make a heavy weapons team out of them (I have 2...)... Thanks gang.

The day Dev squads are granted Autocannons as a weapons choice will be a fine day indeed

4 Autocannons, Sgt with signum all behind and Aegis line with a Quadgun.....

MOAR DAKKA

Or even better, 10 man DA dev squad, 4 auto cannons, 5 ablative wounds, sarge with signum, prescience libby and his command squad with banner of devastation and 5 bolters.

Rapid fire, that'd work out at....well, NEARLY enough dakka.

Oh and I forgot, 2 5 man tactical squads just to make it legal lol.
