Plus, if you are aiming through a scope, you usually, you know... Put your eye to it. This way, with the arm fully extended, looks weird and a little bit stupid.

Other than that, great model.

That is something you do once. Maybe twice if you are particularly thick.

Bzzt. Wrong.

Speaking for the US specifically (where I’ve been my whole life) service members are trained to fire with both eyes open even when using scopes / sights, as it maintains situational awareness and helps prevent momentary blinding via exposure to flash / sudden light intake when reopening your eye. And while I certainly don’t know training doctrines of militaries the world over, I’d be shocked if we were the only ones.


This is the same as what I was taught when I took up target shooting, in the UK.

It’s important to remember that this is supposed to be a space marine; a post human super soldier who’s trained and practiced to an insane degree. He’s not going to follow the ‘best practices’ as laid out by you and your buds shooting bottles off a fence.


No its the same here too, the only exception I can think of is sniper training when firing the weapon.

Two different Leman Russ kits? Seems a bit excessive.

Looks quite nice though.

We're just missing the Hermes Light Sentinel (from the confirmed stuff), right?

Assault version is Demolisher / Plasma / Volkite, Strike is Vanquisher / Lascannon / Autocannon. I'm guessing they didn't want to put seven guns in one kit.

It was known there were two LR kits, they already explained that there were too many sprues to include all the weapon options in one kit.

I'd assumed that the Assault kit would include some sponsons, but apparently not.

None of them have options for sponsons, do they?

No, Leman Russ sponsors are not a thing in Horus Heresy, dunno why anyone would expect them.

It's an oddity that sponsons are not available outside of the Auxilia, who didn't have them because of the Explorator hulls their vehicles have, whereas the regular Imperial Army did have sponsons in the past.

Soo, any price on the Malcador yet?

Just in time for payday, no less

Those volkite Auxilia look dope as hell too, but I'm no flocking with 28mil HH no more (I'm all about that Epic scale when it comes to HH from now on - easy enough to use LI models for both game systems)

Pricey indeed.

I'm wondering if we'll soon see a revised core box with Marines & Solar, instead of just Marines.

Looking at other products on the site that should be in GBP:

Leman Russ: £42.50
Dracosan and Malcador and Lasrifle Section: £55
Sentinel and Veletaris: £35
Command Section: £20

not sure about the lasrifle section as that’s £5 more than the MkVI and £10 more than the MkIII squads. The Dracosan and Malc are better than I expected though.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Lasrifle is 60 euros on the price list, so £45 - same as the MkIII squad.

Lasrifle is 60€



A few comparisons:

The Lasrifle section is the same price as the MKIII and 5€ cheaper than the MKVI

Its also 60€ for 20 guys while the Cadian Troops is 40€ for 10. So as long as you like their optics ad are fine how they aren't as basic as guardsmen should be and have different equipment its a cheaper way to get guys on the table. Same is true for the command squad which is 25€ compared to the 35€ for the Cadian Command.

The new Leman Russ versions are the same price as the old one but the old one includes all weapons options while the new one is split between two kits. And of course it doesn't have the Punisher and Eradicator weapons.
