Chaos about to BTFO
>>
>>45809248
Isn't that the warlord?
>>
I can't see what kind of bolters those are. Vulcan mega-bolters? Or just bolt cannons?
>>
>>45809056
Already looks like shit
>>
>>45809617
That size? Mega bolters, maybe mega mega bolters.
>>
>>45809056
I don't understand the significance. All I know is that looks like The Emperor's armored prosthetic. Anyone care to explain?
>>
>>45809248
That's a warlord, check the feets.
>>
>>45809725
Warlord CCW.

We rock 'em sock 'em robutts now.

>>45810588
That is a path only leads to heresy and destruction.
>>
>>45809056
Does it bother anyone else that it's a Vulcan mega-bolter?

I could see some inferno flamers for roasting the infantry protecting the buildings or titans you want to rock and sock with your power fist, or some kind of melta thing for extra melting while you're punching and tearing, but the mega bolter seems like an odd choice. Putting it on the fist also makes it the unwieldiest gun on the titan to aim with, which seems like a bummer for a projectile weapon with a bit of range.

>>45812345
Well, People have had power flamers and power plasma gun but mega bolter fist.

Fist mounted weapons aren't as uncommon as you think
>>
>>45814011
I'm not complaining that it's a fist mounted, I'm complaining that of all the fist mounted weapons it's a mega-bolter.

Putting a rapid-firing anti-personnel weapon on the most cumbersome limb of the titan doesn't make much sense. I could totally see a flamer there, since the titan just points it vaguely downwards and washes away all the infantry trying to fuck his shit up with melta charges and whatever, or for when the titan pulls the face off a building and roasts everyone inside. I can see some mega-melta weapon or plasma cannon there since it makes sense on a limb that's meant to be used when the titan is closing with other titans, as an extra oomph while stepping into punching range.

But the mega bolter feels weird. A titan is not a space marine or even a dreadnought that has snappy arm movements and and wants to pivot and shift it's weight really fast, so it's not getting the full benefit of the mega-bolter for shooting rapid moving light vehicles or flyers.
>>
>>45814547
Maybe other more practical ones will come in the future?
>>
>>45809056
And here is our Imperator Class Titan, christened Emperor's Indomitable Will. But soldiers will usually call him Hierodule Proctologist.
>>
>>45814622
Isn't it a Warlord on a time there were no Tyranids?
>>
>>45814642
Now that you mention it, I'm actually not sure.
>>
>>45814547
Anon, a Titan can't pivot anything fast, not without serious structural compromises like mounting the guns on the carapace, which leads to instability and reduced arcs of fire.
But guess whot? Rule of cool man. Vid not quite related, I just want punching guns. Have got more? (other than Fallout's)

How much you think it's gonna go for? 2k? 1500?
>>
>>45814797
Are we talking game points or pound sterling?
>>
>>45814809
Pound sterling or Burger bucks.
>>
>>45814822
60
>>
>>45809056
Would that fit a person?
>>
>>45814833
I'm sure it will be more than that.
Yes, I realize you mean just the arm.
>>
>>45814859
If you lube up thoroughly, it might.
>>
>>45809056
looks like they finally released a power claw for cosplay.
>>

YES
>>
>>45809056
Utterly pointless, even Knights are too big for 40K really. As cute as these are in concept they really should just re-release Epic.

Teeny tiny 40K sculpts everywhere, I'm smiling even thinking of it.
>>
>>45809056
New SoB codex?
>>
>>45814674
>(other than Fallout's)

Are you talking about the Power Fist? Because that's just pneumatic.
>>
>>45815419
I really fucking miss epic.
>>
>>45815419
imo 40k should be streamlined and the miniatures should be 10-15mm or so and mounted in groups on rectangular/square bases.
Epic is pretty good, albeit ded, but its just slightly too small for me.
>>
>>45817237
Ballistic Fists from FO:NV. Basically a punching shotgun.
>>
>>45814809
>>45814822
>>45814860
The existing warlord titan arm is 85 pounds. Looking gthe reaver titan's arm choices, ta powerfist shouldn't be too much off from the cannon arm. Maybe a bit more, like 90 or 95.
>>
>>45809248
>Imperator
I don't think that thing is size of a six year old child. Neither do I remember Imperator Titans wielding close combat weapons.
>>
>>45817278
And 10-15 is too small for the scale 40k should be at.
