205 points apop for tough close combat monsters that cannot be transported and thus are doomed to lumber around the board while anything they could conceivably threaten in melee simply walks away from them.

Monster as in monstrous creature, as is they only swing twice (although can generate bonus hits) at WS4. defense wise they are 3+ 4++ (as long as they are B2B with another bot) t7 w4 so they don't die easily, sometimes.

It seems that on June 4th GW shops will be taking pre-orders for a limited-run Praetor in Tartaros armor. 35 loving euros, and it's still FW resin, not hard plastic.



First Tartaros HQ we get and it's a loving limited run, dayum.

It looks a lot better than some other recent limited edition bits and pieces.

I can dig it, but I hope that head is easily replaced. Hate those little mohawks they give the helmless Terminators.

Edit: More interestingly than the model itself, could it be a harbinger of FW being stocked in stores? A naive hope maybe but one that really should have happened by now.

I dig the armor, but either that weapon is too long or too short. Makes him look odd.
Wouldn't mind him for emp child since I don't think they make a HQ choice in that terminator mark yet.

Depends on the weapon imo. If you're going all lascannon then I'd go shoulder.

I'm definitely going for shoulder mounted missiles. Shoulder mounted lascannons feel right, but I like the look of the new ones a bit more. The bitch is going to be finding x10 regular old missile launchers at a reasonable price.

That's a whole lot of tiny parts you have there, good luck. A tip for things like upgrades, wash them while they are still on the sprue to save yourself some frustration.
