I refer to that stunning creation, the Terminus.

Designed by a man with a got of glue and several existing kits, its more like making your own Zoids than a decent model.

And exactly how does it help out the Marines? A lascannon is a lascannon after all, even if it does have 2 single and 3 twin.

A pic is available here .

Not a good model I agree...

I actually think that that hullmounted lascannon is decent idea. But those additional lazcannon sponsons are absurd, they limit firearcs of twinlinked sponsons.

In Arockalypse Marines have to fight Baneblades and titans in every game so additional firepower is, if not needed, then at least welcome.

Normally I have no need to redesing 40K models but this time I have to do something... Predator turret on top of ?Raider? Another Razorback laz on top? From kitbashed to kitbashed...


Hey, Hena! When Scions are getting one of those? ;D :p ;P

I think the Terminus is a standby SHT until we get a plastic thunderhawk (fingers crossed)

But man you gonna love all those lasers and oh it blows up when overuse!  It would been nice to have plasma weapons which would make more sense than the add on from the predator stuff like Nicodemus stated.

Well if you play SM and don't want to use IG/Titan legion allies than you either use the Terminus or the Terminator Titanhammer squad to tangle with enemy titans

I've seen ages back a chap making one with a mk2? landraider and a pred turret on top. That looked ok.

Daemonknight: Drop pods are coming... I should think it will be a long time before you see a plastic Thunderhawk.

Very badly designed. I mean in the space where they have the engine exhaust stacks they could have squeezed in more lascannons. Not to mention pintle-mounted lascannon on rear hatch...... ???  :glare:

Cheers
