So the new primaries stuff just got revealed...
And I’m not gonna lie, it’s a 50/50 for me
Floaty rhino: 7/10
Literally exactly what I expected out of a anti-grav primaries rhino:
Fuck ton more guns? Check
Weird land speeder esk anti grav plates/pads? Check
Ambiguous photo that leaves many questions about customization and features? You bet your sweet imperial ass!
It’s got what I’d honestly kinda dreaded and hoped for, the design is slightly more imperial than the repulsor, so at least it doesn’t break the art style as much as that weird ass thing.
But the amount of guns it has leads me to think it’s going to be far too much points wise, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say probably 130-140, maybe even higher if those storm bolters can be upped to frag launchers and that Razorback gun on the top can be uped.Over all though?
Probably going to grab one if it’s less than 60$, I need to shuttle my primaris somehow, and I don’t have the points to grab a repulsor, or the cash quite frankly.
Now,
the abhorrent one cometh......................
WHAT THE FUCK GW!?!?!?
SERIOUSLY WHAT THE SHIT!
HOW CAN I EVEN EXPRESS MY UTTER CONFUSION AND DISAPPOINTMENT AND RESENTMENT?!?
Alright, I’ll cool it for a minute.........
Let me at the very least list the things that make this vehicle a 2 rather than a 0 out of 10.
First, the missile pod. I like where it’s located, it reminds me a a leviathans hunter killer rack, but more up armored and simplified.
Second, the feet. Knowing what I do about actual engineering and design, four pronged foot pads like these would probably disperse this abominations weight out quite well, it probably wasn’t intentional, but good touch.
Third and final, the main gun. It looks to be a light auto cannon of sorts, probably a bit lighter than the one the Tartaros terminator carries. Fighting for what is essentially an imperial crisis suit.
Now...
Its been a minute.....
RANT TIME FUCKERS
ITS GOT SO LITTLE ARMOR ID BE SUPRISED IF I COULDNT KILL IT WITH A LASGUN!
FUCKING SERIOUSLY, YOU MAKE THE DREADKNIGHTS FLAWS LOOK LIKE A GERMAN MASTERPIECE OF ENGINEERING.
CHRIST JUST LOOK AT HOW LITTLE JOINT PROTECTION IT HAS
A FUCKING ROLL CAGE!?!?! THIS ISNT AN ATV ITS A WAR MACHINE, A HUMVIE HAS MORE ARMOR ON ITS .50 CAL
NIPPLE STUBBERS? SERIOUSLY? WHATS WITH THIS FETISH ABOUT NON BOLT WEPAONS ON MARINE VEHICLES?!
YOU GAVE IT A PISTOLED HEAVY BOLTER!?! THIS ISNT A GUNDAM GW! YOU COULD HAVE BUILT IT INTO THE HAND, BUT NOOO, HAD TO GIVE THIS SUMBITCH A BIG IRON.
SERIOUSLY, I KNOW THIS IS GETTING LONG, BUT NOT ONE OTHER VEHICLE IN 40K, NOT JUST THE IMPERIUM, ALL OF THIS GODS DAMNED UNIVERSE, HOLSTERS MECH RANGED WEAPONRY!
IT LEGITIMATELY GAVE MORE ARMOR TO ITS DREAD-COCK THAN ITS PILOT! HES IN PHOBOS ARMOR GOD DAMNIT AT LEAST GIVE THE MAN SOME ARMOR GLASS AND ADAMANTINE!
FUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!
..........ok, I’m better, not good, but better.
Even if this unit can one shot titans it’s not getting picked up, it’s poorly designed. Like the gene stealer cult armiger conversions look better than this thing, and it’s not a very marine weapons platform. If I can build something like it I may proxy, but since I barley buy from Gdubs anyway, this won’t be going into my force.
