Title: Why this game is awesome when you get creative
Post by: Rob S on March 01, 2010, 06:43:29 PM
So you're playing a small Apocalypse game and you're Witch Hunters.  Great, you can take a bunch of Sisters of Battle.  Maybe borrow a baneblade from someone.

Or, you can start being creative and not take just what's given to you straight from GW.

Is that main gun like a hellhound with the super flamer template? I would love that thing in a city fight, entire floors would be cleared with a whoosh!

Is that sister's tank a prototype design?

looks photoshopped, blurry lines around the sister's parts and all

Rob S did you make that deathstrike?
Title: Re: Why this game is awesome when you get creative
Post by: Ian Mulligan on March 02, 2010, 08:41:06 PM
Definitely shopped, but still cool.
Title: Re: Why this game is awesome when you get creative
Post by: Grand Master Steve on March 02, 2010, 10:21:09 PM
the back parts would take very careful cutting of a sisters of battle Exorsit top. Also the tank says Talaran on the side still lol
Title: Re: Why this game is awesome when you get creative
Post by: Rob S on March 02, 2010, 11:11:52 PM
It was photoshopped as an idea for a superheavy and shared on a forum.  Someone else pointed out the Tallarn thing and the woman who was considering making it was like "Lol, oops"

And no, that's not my deathstrike.  But that's what I would make it look like if I ever converted a few.

The photoshopping was the joke that is now explained in the Iranian missile test picture.

The other problem with the tank photo shoped or not is where do you get bitz for its primary weapon? Also the Exorcist missles on the back is one to many guns unless the thing will cost an obserd amount of points

It's an Apocalypse tank.  It should cost an absurd amount of points.  Those guns are from the Land Raider that has the flamer things.  I forget the model.

That image is so bad it hurts they eye to look at.  It's like an Escher drawing but infinitely more chaste.

Im half tempted to try and make that conversion

do it
Title: Re: Why this game is awesome when you get creative
Post by: Grand Master Steve on March 09, 2010, 09:36:29 PM
that....will be a costly conversion, mainly for the exorcist missle launchers. Besides that thing has way to many guns. Those exorcist missle launchers probably make the thing cost a lot points wise. It also looks like I cant get Immolator bits for it off line.
