I don't think anyone would say no to a typhon. Other than Stanyer89, he explicitly told me he doesn't want it. :v:

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you're looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money... but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my typhon go now, that will be the end of it - I will not look for you, I will not pursue you... but if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you... and I will kill you.

I'm in for the Typhon because my haiku was from the heart.

Since the slack channel is currently being swamped by an out of context Blood Bowl chat log, I figured I'd take my question here instead:

I have 60 MkIV marines and 40 of them are built as tacticals. The other 20 were going to be special weapons guys, but that was before Prospero released and they've been replaced by MkIII models. That leaves me with 20 MkIV marines with no real purpose as I never see myself running 60 basic tactical marines. I got to thinking instead of how to upgrade them to assault marines. Assuming I can source jump packs from somewhere, what do y'all think is the best way to get MkIV-style melee weapons and arms? Are there any good third-party bits that mimic the MkIV look? Alternatively, what the hell else should I do with these guys?

I might have just bit the bullet and gotten some weapon sets from FW, but they only come with 2 pistols and 2 chainswords and are 22 GBP. Yeah, there are tons of weapons in those things, but they don't make sense when you only need the arms and the basics. The chainswords are easy; the normal 40k ones look pretty much the same. It's the pistols and arms that are the issue.

For my MkIII assault marines, I cut the MkIII forearms and attached them to any plastic hands and upper arms I could find, mostly MkVII stuff. It looks good, although a few of the joins ended up being slightly double jointed.

I'd probably just use MkVII arms for MkIV guys, they're not that different to do the whole forearm swap.
