im just trying to make sure it comes with the 3 quad lasers (or whatever they are) in the image as the product description at GW is a bit vague

Thanks ahead of time!

It is 2 bastions and 3 aegis lines. The lines include the quad, and the bastion includes the single gun and radio tower, so yes, you get 3 quads.

And it is awesome.

I love this kit.

You can't comprehend how many barricades you're getting until you hold them with your hands.

Also, if you don't glue the towers together entirely you can stack/unstack them at will.

No less than two people in my gaming group have scrapped those quad guns to use as Dreadnought TL Autocannon arms.

They're the best autocannon conversion fodder, I hacked one up to build a Leman Russ Executioner. Hey Pedro, any pics of those converted tanks?

Here is a bad phone photo sneak peak of my first 'mechanicus manticore' and 1 veteran skatarii... still tons of highlighting to do on it.... i have 2 full veteran skatarii squads (space marine scouts count as) in the midst of painting stages... i just bought 6 sentinels (that i am converting to knights) one of them is a crazy awesome rouge trader era sentinel that is soo cool!

this picture does not do it justice but the heavy stubber slaved servitor is actually going to be awesome once its all painted up.. just took a heavy bolter servitor and cut the legs off and green stuffed him into the hatch.. then the heavy stubber fit almost perfectly onto the servitor.. just a bit of green stuff and some extra plastic...looks awesome IMO... also you can't see it too well but green stuffed a mechanicus symbol on the manticore too.
once i get them to a decent painting stage will post some good pictures in the WIP forum and on our blog... http://2ndcitywarzone.blogspot.com/

Nice. Like the stubber guy. I'm liking the idea of a Mechanicus army more and more, but my Crimson Fists and Cadians are all I need to tackle right now.
