This is a little conversion that has been brewing in the back of my head for quite some time. Basically I wanted a Praetorian proxy for the AMTL list that anyone could build with a minimum effort.

The concept is very simple: Take one "Johnny no. 5" Exodus Wars Wardroid and one Orgyn. Cut both in half and glue together. VOila!

I haven't quite decided which version looks best yet. But of course there's no reason why every Praetorian should look exactly the same: You could easily have different Orgyn/machine ratios. Also I figure the tracks might look quite nice with old plastic Robots or even Nobz added.

Great idea, Warmaster. That's so simple of a conversion that even I could do it.  :laugh:

I think the imperial robot would have been a better fit for the top but still a great idea either way.

That wardroids tracks looks like a 2mm Landraider...

Or a 2mm Rhino, now people can do that 28mm diarama they always dreamed off.

Space Marines playing 40k... to scale.

Yup :)

I've been meaning to try it out myself ever since :D

Of course it could still use a bit of fine tuning, but overall it should work prety well I think
