I was kind of abrasive on that post about Squigger and I always say less than complimentary stuff about G/W & F/W all the time !

True, that was very "new yorkish" of you.
Maybe there's hope for you yet?!

There's been some discussion of making Salamanders on another thread:
IG Salamanders: A new essential?
Essentially there are three options right now:
1. No conversion i.e. buy the FW ones or wait for the E-A minis to be released.
2. Little conversion i.e. the Jombo and Mates route: Use a Bombard base and add Ork gunners and whatnot.
3. A lot of conversion AKA the Tuffskull (TS) method in which the Salamander superstructre is built up with plasticard and other materials. TS has used old Eldar dreadnought weapons for the Salamander guns as well.
Shabbat shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

All it is, is an Armored Command Vehicle. ?I have the Epic F/W models. ?In theory a Rhino could be used in the same role. ?Tony C. must have run across some pics of German WWII command vehicles and came up with the "neat" but unnecessary model. ?He's so transparent and redundant ... ? ? ?

Hi!
My thoughts exactly, Legion4. Hopefully some of that will trickle down to armies that really need it.

I took a look at the site (monday knight) mentioned in the BFG section. I think this would make a nice TAU dropship.

Of course, it would have to be re-named Orca or some other marine thingy, but what do you think about the model? ?

Hi!
Thats not a bad model, you're right it does look "tau-ish". Very appropriate for a dropship.

Hmm.. personally I don't think this quite has the Tau feel to it; a bit 'fat' if you know what I mean.. although it is still a nice model!

Hi!
It does need a diet stormseer!
I'm trying to find something similar I saw once, but I can remember the manufacturer.

I just wanted to find out a quick view of what people think about this combined magazine. Please let us know, and also check out the sister poll for Gothic. Thanks.

I sent G/W US a copy of Jervis's letter about Fanatic Mag, and asked what about my Epic sub ? Well good news - I can put the $ towards and Fanatic Mag sub or get a refund. A Fanatic Mag sub is $60.00 a year ... oh well ...  , it should be worth it !

Does anyone have any good ideas for making the support weapons for PDF / Siege units?
Shalom,
