New forge world - Contemptor autocannon arms, rapier & minotaur pads

[isotope99]

Contemptor autocannon arms - grey knights players will love em. The pair are roughly the same price as the aegis line

More classics - The return of the rapier - nice but pricey

Minotaur pads - meh, I like the ox skulls instead of human skulls on the termies though

Thows Auto Cannon arms are sexy. Are you able to put them on Chaos Contemptors?

(Have not had a chance to order the the new Imperal Armour Apoc.)

The return of the Rapier is much rejoiced!

The Contemptor autocannon arms however are simply upsized DKoK Heavy Stubbers, which, while cool, look a little silly if you're used to the DKoK weapons.

Rapier. That's straight out of the old adeptus mechanicus lists.....

Don't you go make us all super hopeful now.

hey, all I know is where it's from, it's legacy is of the mechanicus, whether that points to them actually starting work on a codex or not, I don't know.

The Rapier was one of (if not) my favourite Imperial Guard support units back in the day. The new version is quite lovely, and the rules are surprisingly good too.

I don't think they were specifically Mechanicus. They were Imperial Army first of all, and only got attached to the Mechanicus in 2nd edition, for all of that two page "codex" in the Black Codex. :(

Now I should be able to paint up my old rapier and use it. And think of getting some more.

i now know what my christmas monies is going to :D


p.s. i just thought that a raipeir could be easily made out of a FW epic LR and some lascannons, or the cyclops drone that FW sells!

Chaos Contemptor Dreadnought can not take the pair, in fact only the Mortis Contemptor in IA Apoc 2nd Ed, can take a pair.

very cool love the contemptor arms and the minotaur shoulder pads

Those Autocannon arms are very, very nice. First time I've though I really want some autocannons. I definitely want a Mortis mounting a pair of those and a Cyclone, as they will shred light vehicles as well as being very effective AA cover for Apocalypse.
