cant measure it to check since its 200 miles away :p , but its one of the large 40K character bases & yes, it was suplied with the model.

It would be 40mm then. The standard WH40K bases are 25mm, large bases (characters, mega armoured nobz etc) are 40mm, and the new IG heavy weapon bases are 60mm.

It is the huge Eagle on one side of it that I don't like, unbalances the model somewhat.

Oh well ;).

I agree, when I first saw the pics on the fanatic site, I thought the eagle was spread across the body the other way (rotated 90 degrees)

Tuffskull,

I guess we can't see them, but can you tell us what's under the Eagle censor spot?

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Wow ! ?Great stuff ! ?The hulls look just like the E40K versions, as we were told they would. The Bombard looks exactly like the E40K model, yes ?! ?I like them and will buy a det. of each. And as others have said, can you give us a clue about what's under the Skull ?!?! ???? ?:o  I ... never mind ...  :blush:  :;):

Don't know 'bout the Warhound...still like the FW one more, although more shots from different angles help the new one alot.

Is it just me or are the weapons too small/short to go with the body. They seem kinda stubby?

The new armor pieces are wonderful, could be nice with some to compare to, a troop stand like Stormtroopers ?:D ? :D ?or something else, just to get the scale/size.

Love the new armour, except for the armoured Basilisk which I really don't like - much prefer the Forgeworld ones, the barrel seems too thick for me.

Although it could be put down to an armour plated gun I guess?!?

THe bombard is mainly there for scale.
The chassis for the LR Conqueror is the same as the E40K Rusty Lemons - they just cast it in a single piece rather than 3.

I may modify the Basilisk barrel a little, also. ?However, it looks more like a heavy artillery piece of 155mm (or 8 inch) similar to the WWII German Hummel (Bumble Bee) SP 150mm FA piece and the F/W version looks more like the German Nashorn (Hornet) as Maksim mention, an SP 88mm AT gun. So you actually could stat them as 2 different vehicles, one as SP FA and one as SP AT. ?Or not ! ?:;):

YUM YUM YUM YUM!
*sounds of eyes feasting on the wonderfull pics*







The new pics of the Warhound have convinced me to get a pair. The armoured Basilisk... well I'm not too happy about it but I'll buy one anyway.
Looking forward to those Stormtroopers!!! :)

Cheers

I am loving the new armour...one small note though, I thought that the new Leman Russ tank was the Vanquisher, not the Conqueror.

With the warhounds, that picture definetly makes me wanna buy FW!

Cheers

Chris
