Didn't have an actual sheet for my post to have.

Still feel like the basic Auxilia are a bit higher than should be.

Yeah feels like they should be less than the Marines especially since they have less sprues in the box as they don't have an additional sergeant sprue.
Its probably because of the 40k guardsman, they are already 25% cheaper than an equivalent number of Cadians

From Bolter and Chainsword:

Leman Russ: 55 euro(70USD)
Dracosan: 70 euro(90USD)
Malcador: 70 euro(90USD)
Sentinel: 45 Euro(60USD)
Veletaris: 45 euro(60USD)
Lasrifle: 70 euro(90USD) 60 euro (75USD)
Command section: 25 euro(30USD)

Carrying to the next page. Solar big box is $325USD of contents.

So the battle group was 170€ for 255€ of stuff.

Basically all the infantry free.

fething yikes. I shudder to think of what prices we'll get slapped with.

I mean, you can find out by just popping over to the regions we listed prices for...

125AUD for lasrifle section(same as the Mk III squad).

Does the Malcador/Dracosan have 40k rules? If not anything they can pass as?

Rogal Dorn? Cassuss Armored Assault Transport?

The Malcador has rules here. The Dracosan doesn't.

I would definitely recommend using the Malcador as Rogal Dorn. The Crassus could work as a Dracosan replacement, counting the demolisher cannon as 4 heavy bolters would be fine in my book.

I would turn them into some sort of Ash Wastes crawlers if you have no need for them in Heresy.

That's what I hope to do with them.

A dracosan is the Same price as a malcador.....
W T F

I mean, it's the same chassis. With enough extra parts that it's probably as many sprues, unlike the Rhino where you just plug holes where weapons would go.

The Typhon, Cerberus, and Spartan are all the same price.

I think I'm owed an apology for my price predictions, they weren't too far off the mark.

The question is does the Malcador have a complete hull or is there a Dorn Hole?

Cause I do like the Dorn, but can't bring myself to buy another kit where I have to scratch build part of it myself.

It has a complete hull you can see it here on the sprue:


or here on a half build Dracosan which uses the same sprues as the Malcador will for the chassis:

Saw a UK price list on Facebook, actual prices are:

Beta-Garmon Book: £35
Dracosan: £55
Leman Russ Strike: £40
Lasrifle Section: £45
Tactical Command Section: £20
Aethon Heavy Sentinel: £35
Veletaris Storm Section: £35
Malcador: £55
Leman Russ Assault: £40

So the Leman Russes and Command Section are slightly less than I thought from price comparisons.

So happy to see those blackshield transfers back. I'll be grabbing a sheet!

Wow, the level of heraldry type artwork for infantry really took a hit…

45 pounds for 20 dudes seems like not too bad of a deal. Can’t remember when we got 10 of anything for 22,5gbp from gw. Old world reboxes may be?

When you consider their respective points value, it still sucks pretty horrendously.

I can see the Lasrifle section being reasonably popular with Imp Agents to build Voidsmen at arms squads, maybe even the command squad as the Rogue Trader with retinue. They at least look better in the role alongside the Navy Voidsmen for those doing themed forces.

Well, that's the fate of every ordinary human infantry model since RTB01, and it did not change in a game that's basically Space Marines galore. But could be worse, I'm using Tech-thralls...

A few new angles of some stuff, tho nothing new, and still no pictures of the storm axe guys.

Glutton for punishment I see...

MECHANICUM ARE COMING

Cracked that code, did you?

Will be interesting to see.

I'd much rather some more marines to fill more gaps, or the handful of kits solar aux need to finish off before starting another faction from scratch.

If I want to think crazy though, Mars Warhound in plastic!

I figured it would be something substantial, but nobody dared dream of a third plastic faction right after the second.

I did!

Me, early on in the Adepticon thread wrote: Given Heresy is just a teaser?

I’m hoping it’s a teaser for the Mechanicum. Seem early given we’ve barely, just about, sort of got Solar Auxilia. But I’d still love for Mechanicum to get some plastic love.
