Nope - you buy the tech priest auxillia with a unit of servos, and he doesn't have independent character, so can't join other units.

So would it be appropriate to email them suggestions on how to improve the Leviathan Dreadnought yet?

Apart from lack of posability with the arms and the fact it's not been released, what's the problem?!

The fact it only has 4 attacks total, and loses one each time you add a gun.
As it stands, for the points, it SHOULD have at the very least 4 attacks base like the lesser Dreads, and therefore 5 attacks with both Claws.

They cannot join the unit, but as Lacyramarta they got a bubble effect like old school narthecium to give the FNP buff to units nearby.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

He didn't need to pin the Spartan, but he did want to show off how to pin a heavy part.

I'm just slightly depressed that my plan to use a Deredeo with Atomantic Pavise to give the Leviathans a 3++ was scuppered upon actually reading the Pavise's rules(only applies to Infantry ).

Dem Storm Cannons tho

The price is slightly less appealing of course.

EDIT: The CC version will be utterly monstrous as well, assuming you can get the charge off; 2x Heavy Flamer and 2x Meltagun blasts, followed by 2 HoW attacks and 5 S10 AP2 claw attacks at I5 with Severing Cut or Armourbane to taste.. Mama mia.

I think the red one is Word Bearers. Agreed, though - all 3 paint schemes on the site look great.

I think the model particularly suits the look of the Death Guard, so it's nice to see it in their colours font and centre.

Go 30k. You can legally run a list with a total number of 12 Contemptors and 9 Leviathans (or 6 Leviathans and 1 Deredeo!) assuming you have the points (and £'s) to run it...

Why not? It'd be weird if he lets you go unbound but doesn't let you use a 30k list
