Got 10 of these tanks as a prize on the weekend and they are really nice - they've inspired me to do a guard army, something I never thought would happen, problem is I need some more is there a release date for these?

Painted in eye catching camo? :)

My sincere apologies for the delays. Unfortunately I had some issues with a kidney stone the week before going on holidays which messed up my painting schedule.
I just got back from holidays this morning and I'll have some painted pics ready ASAp :)

I have to add that having seen these at the London tournament I would happily point people looking for a guard army to exodus wars (assuming they will never play at a GW store of course!).

Really nice tanks and with the variety of turrets that will be on offer should go a storm!

Thanks L4. I'll try to remove stones from my diet :laugh: Unfortunately they couldn't remove it the first time so I have to go back to the hospital in about a month's time before everything is back to normal. Apart from some minor inconveniences I'm all good now though.

MBT tank company almost finished. Here's my test tank. The rest of the company just need detailing so expect them to be ready later today.
Unfortunately I forgot that the camera was at a crappy high ISO seting while snapping these pics so they're a bit fuzzy. I'll have some better ones made once the entire company is complete.

With the hatch on the back does it carry troops?

The design is modular. One could assume that turret replacements between MBT and IFV variants could be done in the field using an engineering vehicle to adapt to specific battlefield needs. The MBT wouldn't normally carry troops, but the extra hull space would probably be used to store extra ammunition or fuel. In some conditions the tank could probably carry troops as well, similar to the israeli Merkava tank.

Still a crappy pic, but here's a comparison shot of the Guild MBT company compared to a Leman Russ company.

edit: Updated pic of the finished tank company here:

Well I'm no doctor, but I think dropping those from your diet may help !! :vD   But regardless love the tanks ... in proper camo ... not red ... not orange ... not purple ... not blue, etc. ...  :agree:

Where have you been TRC ?  We discussed this before ...  :glare:  Besides being a modular design as WMN pointed out ...  Like the IDF Merkava, the rear door makes quick ammo uploading, and even in a pinch be used to MEDEVAC ...  :blues:   8v)  Try to keep up ... huh ?!  :vD

Working on the command/scout tank turret.

We've ben thinking about adding a periscope/sensor thingy similar to what is seen on many modern scouting vehicles:








The basic idea is that is should be an accessory that is easily cut off for the basic command turret. It will be cast in horisontal position but it can be cut off and placed in a hole in vertical position too.
