you know, just because the heavy mortars arent in THAT book, doesnt mean that you can't use them! it just means they didnt need an update! you just continue to use the current rules. if you don't own them yet that you haven't actually lost - as you were always going to need to buy the relevent imperial armour book in any case!

Yeah that was the problem. I know the rules, I was just hoping I wouldnt have to buy a book just for one page of rules. I had heard rumor that they were in the new one which I was already ordered anyway for the hazard suit rules. I am in IG mode right now though and not tau. (I waver back and forth, its cyclical) The Vulture rules will be a plus once IA8 comes out though. Why they switched their slots from heavy to FA is beyond me and limits my use of them as I already have 3 squadrons of 2 valks and vendettas filling up my FA and nothing in my heavy slots now.

Quite clearly answering the question whether the Tauros Venator was airmobile. Love the dead spider aspect shot as well.

Now those are some sweet looking dune buggys. I hope they are cheaper then the Venator i might look into one if its around 30 bucks.

Well, if the grenade launcher is just a standard GL, its a no no there. I'm buying the Venator.

I expect the price will be the same as the Venator, even the Centaurs are expensive and they are smaller then the Vens.

One thing that got me excited is how we can recreate the GLA from C&C Generals now! We got our Technicals right there, peeps  ;)

But hmm, those Valk passengers are looking mighty fine...

I would suggest the Tallarn FW snipers, those guys are handy. Then use some sentinel arms for the driver maybe, and tank crewman arms firing for the assault weapon. That's what I used for my Wisemman Tallarn conversion HB Gunner.

im not sure i'd feel comfortable chopping up the nice FW snipers! but the heavy weapons gunners would be a good choice for the driver im sure... I may have to attack the guy on the back with some green stuff... saying that - my jeep crew use the cadian models to represent the idea that they wear more armour as they are more exposed... so i might be able to get away with slapping in some cadian bits...

i will say i like the camo painting but am not too impressed with the effect on the wheels - nor the guys armour.

one final thing is that my guess would be that it is not a grenade launcher - but a mortar... remembering that the elysian mortars are smaller and stubber than the regular ones.

I believe the Torso and Legs come separate. No chopping required ;)

Thats a fantastic looking vehicle, I prefere it to its bigger 6 wheeled brother.

At £30 its a a snip. Will have to get me a few of these. Would it be wrong to put cadian models in it?
