Personally, I'd have done an Inferno gun variant. :D

Well, that should keep Redram busy.

And: Damnit! I wanted to be the first to plug titan weapons onto superheavies. Crap.

Nice tank -and twin-linked mega bolter sounds nasty; but aren't they far too small to be Titan weapons? Compare them to - uhm - the tanker's head?

The Warhound Vulcan is actually twin linked so if you removed the gun casing and much of the ammunition and aiming equipment from the titan weapon I suppose it's about the right size.

One thing that always bothered be a bit though, is that the Epic version of the FW warhound had a different style Vulcan than then 40k scale. The Epic version looks more like a pair of Boltguns glued together...


Nice model although I sometimes question werther it is really necessary to mount every single weapon type in 40k on every single tank chassis type...

Och! Heresy!

I wish I was at home so I could measure the Warhound plasma gun vs. the Stormblade plasma gun. Their stats are the same (2xMW2+, slow) but I have a visceral memory of the stormblade cannon being larger...

Answering own question:
The Stormblade weapon is approximately 20 mm long, 8 mm wide, 3 mm thick. Total volume 480 cubic mm.
Warhound, approximately 25 mm long, 6 mm wide, 4 mm thick. Total volume 600 cubic mm.

So, memory is fleeting...

I've a couple of spare warhound weapon systems (long story) and I was planning on getting a couple of baneblades and mounting a plasma blastgun and a VMB on them. I guess it's got a name now...
