I didn't like the rulebook look for chaos, so have done some alterations to my ships for a constant theme of what weapon system is what. I was wondering what others have done. There are the following, for me, weapon options. Bomber bays Mixed battery/lance deck (the one that you slot a lance into) Gun deck For me this gives the following options Bomber bays Lances plugged straight into hull (For a ship with lances and no gun batteries) Mixed battery/lance deck (For something like a slaughter) Gun deck with long cannon - 60cm range on at least part of side battery. Gun deck with long cannon chopped off - 45cm and less range on battery. As a result I can easily tell what my otherwise somewhat similar ships look like. Oh, and added an undernose and under chin quad lance gun and chopped off the prow weapons batteries barrels for those with forward firing lances. I then got carried away and gave each type a standardised mast layout to ?furhter differentiat them, but I did go a bit wierd! I think that was after I grew sick of the sight of skulls and chopped off every last one from all my ships. And I really regret picking Iron Warriors as my fleet - argh, the ribbing takes forever! |

I would if the models were at Uni with me. Sensible I put them elsewhere, but now I am drawn back to these boards I'm being diverted anyway! I can post some pics probably first week of March. |

I've got a few chaos ships and I guess I'm a bit obsessive about the model reflecting what I think their armament should be. I have a carnage with the mass battery arrays and no other modificaitons I have a Hades with the small guns on the prow filed off and two smaller lances protruding from the top and a full Lance emerging from the prow just under the nose of the ship Even though my Slaughter has been converted to a Daemonship which you all have seen- I still modeled the weapons by putting two lance batteries directly onto the hull then having a battery array closer to aft (though the aft battery arrays are more like tons of gun barrels protruding from a muscular daemonic mass/growth |

Okay, eagerly awaiting march. My Carnage: all battery gun decks, nothing else. My Murder: all battery gun decks, antenne upper deck, antenne lower deck. Maybe I should make a lance... My Slaughter: two decks with lances. My Archeron: lances into hull My Devastation: launch bays, decks with lances but I think lances into hull is better. |
