In Need of Autocannons
« on: April 30, 2011, 11:39:45 PM »
Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone had any spare IG or SM Autocannons for trade or sale.  From IG, I prefer the ones from the Heavy Weapons team, and from SM, I think the Predator turret is the only option I have.

I have tons of SM bitz for trade, and am willing to offer up to $3/Autocannon in store credit.

I'm looking for upwards of 8 in total.

Thanks a lot!
~Ben

I assume these are for vehicle mounting?  Have you considered the ones from the Aegis Defense line?

Let me see how many IG HW ones I have.  I'm pretty sure I've had my fill of them in my renegades so I'm sure I have a few to spare.  I'll post a bit later.

EDIT:
As I dig through my vast sea of bits, things I am looking for are the studded beakie helmets, shoulder pads and / or CCW / BP arms.  I know it's wishful thinking.

EDIT 2:
Have you also considered the autocannons from the sentinel?

I'll see if I can post some pics as well once I get a final count of my suggestions.

I believe I have 4 or 5 from heavy weapons teams that I would trade for store credit.

Edit: Do you think that SM powerfists would work on IG? If they would I would trade for those with the autocannons.

Yes Rich, I'm trying to make the TL Autocannon arms for the Dreadnought.  And yes, I have considered using the Aegis Defense Line.  I actually have a set of those sprues, but was trying to make the arms without having to use them first.

As I dig through my vast sea of bits, things I am looking for are the studded beakie helmets, shoulder pads and / or CCW / BP arms.  I know it's wishful thinking.
I have plenty of shoulder pads, but not much else of what you're looking for unfortunately.  How many did you need?

EDIT 2:

Actually, no, I haven't.  Are they close to the same size as the IG HW ones?

I believe I have 4 or 5 from heavy weapons teams that I would trade for store credit.
Thanks, Dan!  Please let me know what you're looking for and how many exactly you have, and I'll see what I have for you.

Do you think that SM powerfists would work on IG? If they would I would trade for those with the autocannons.
Last I looked, SM PF's are quite a bit bigger than the IG PF's, but then again I've only seen a few.  I'd check with some other IG players first to see if they'd work.  Otherwise, I might have 1 or 2 available for trade.

Thanks a lot, guys!  (That goes double for you, Dave.  No thread is complete without an appearance from the Goss Troll.  ;))

IG with SM powerfists are a little rough.  They are just big enough to look awkward.

I have at least 4 autocannons from the HW sprue.   I don't have any of the autocannons for the sentinels to do the comparison.

It appears I should proof read my posts.  Even though I would be very excited for  "studded beakie helmets" I meant to say studded shoulder pads.  Or a space marine multimelta would be something I'm looking for.  Otherwise the store credit would be fine.

When do you need the autocannons by?

Haha, I was wondering what "studded beakie heads" were... :D

That said, I do have a few studded shoulder pads also.

Did you need the MM for a Vehicle or for an Infantry model?  I'm pretty sure I have both.

Also, let me know how many shoulder pads (of both kinds) you need. 

As for when I need them, I'm in no particular rush.  I plan to be back in town the weekend of May 14th, so if you're around that weekend to trade, I'm fine with that.

Thanks again, Rich!

I'm looking for the infantry mounted ones.  I really just need one for my Carcharodons. 

For the shoulder pads, a 1:1 trade seems fair enough unless you find them revolting. Then I would be happy to aid you in ridding your self of them.

To prevent them ending up in the same black hole Dave's lightning claws went, I could meet you on the 14th in person.  If something happens where I can't be there, I'll leave them at the store and let you know.

That sounds fine, Rich.  I'll let you know for sure how many I have tomorrow.

Sentinal autocannons are notably shorter than heavy weapons. For autocannon-power fist trade I  am willing to do what you think is fair, if you have spare power weapons I am willing to trade for those too. I can drop off the autocannons any time you need them.

EDIT: I have found 5 autocannons.

Ben, I have a bunch of them from the IG HW teams. 

Let me know how many you still need (if any) and I should be able to dig them up.

@ Dan:  How does 2 Power Weapons and 1 Power Fist sound for 4 Autocannons?

@ Rich:  How does 1 MM, 2 Studded Shoulder Pads, and 2 Regular Shoulder Pads sound for 4 Autocannons?

@ Doug:  Thanks a lot for the offer, but it seems like I have all the ones I need now.

How about 1 mm and 3 studded?
