So I've got a deimos rhino here. Because of the way the combi-bolter is actually 2 boltguns on two different cupolas, it makes it pretty hard to put pintle weapons on it. The legion pintle weapon set might come with 5 pintle weapons, but it only comes with cupolas for one rhino. Should I just buy some 40k storm bolter cupolas off ebay and rig up multimeltas on top somehow, or is there a better option?

I don't have an answer for you, but it's weird no one brought this up before. Not sure I've seen a deimos with a pintle weapon on it. A quick google images search shows people putting 40k rhino cupolas on it, like you suggest:  I'm not sure I'd spend the points on kitting out rhinos. I seem to always prefer using those points to kit out characters.

The hatch on the right takes the two boltguns so you keep your twin linked bolter.  Or am I not understand what you mean?

Yes. But the pintle kit comes with enough hatches for one vehicle, while coming with a shitton of pintle weapons. I don't want to pay 10 pounds per rhino just for a set of hatches, because of it inexplicably saying you have enough pintle weapons for 5 vehicles but being unable to actually mount them to anything without the hatches. For 15 points each to give my rhinos BS4 multimeltas, I'm more than willing to spend those points. I'm playing Hand of the Gorgon and am going to drown the opponent in vehicles, any shots going at these rhinos aren't going at real tanks.

If your rhino is outflanking put a multi-melta on it. Otherwise it will die to something stupid turn 1

Planning to have the vets and the plasma support squad outflank, while my tac squads deploy normally Also taking a comm relay. Might give the tac squad rhinos a combi-melta instead of the multimelta, that'd save 10 points each. chutche2 fucked around with this message at 16:08 on Apr 13, 2017 |

The pintle set comes with 5 little arm things to put the weapons on and it connects to the existing hatch on the rhino. Here's one of mine:  I've even played greenmarine with it! Lotta pintle misconceptions itt.

tallkidwithglasses posted:This isn't true. The pintle set comes with 5 little arm things to put the weapons on and it connects to the existing hatch on the rhino. Here's one of mine: That's great and all but doesn't change the fact that the deimos comes with 2 cupolas with 1 bolter each, and it looks really loving dumb to then stick a multimelta in front of one of those 2 bolters. The pintle weapon set comes with exactly 1 cupola that is bare and 1 cupola that can carry a combi-bolter, in order to make it look right with a pintle weapon you have to either buy a new pintle set for each vehicle so you get more cupolas, or put on 40k cupolas with storm bolters to represent the combi bolter. Like, they give you a picture of what's in it and that picture has been posted already, do you really think I don't know it comes with arms when they are there in the picture? The problem is not with the pintles, it is with the cupolas. chutche2 fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Apr 13, 2017 |

Ah I see, yeah it only comes with one hatch that replaces the twin linked bolters. EDIT: You're getting pretty salty about this. Just buy a loving set per rhino, christ.

I'm getting salty because no one here can spend the ten seconds to read two sentences before deciding to respond with poo poo that is entirely irrelevant. Greenmarine is the only one that read what I wrote and responded in a useful manner, and amazingly enough he was the first to respond. He has some pretty great reading comprehension skills.

Buying a kit per rhino would leave me with 20 or so unused pintle weapons that I can't really see myself ever using. I'll go with my first instinct and just use 40k cupolas, Greenmarine said that's common. chutche2 fucked around with this message at 19:11 on Apr 13, 2017 |

You can just put the pintle on an open hatch and then the bolter in the other cupola and it looks pretty good and everything is fine? I guess I just don't understand what the problem is.

I guess I just don't understand what the problem is. What do you mean by "the bolter in the other cupola"? The standard deimos cupola won't accomodate a full combi-bolter, there's only room for 1 on each side. I'd have to do some really extensive modeling to let it fit both bolters on it, filling in the current peg hole, drilling two new ones, and expanding the slot for the magazines quite a bit.. And I don't want to just leave it as a single bolter on the side, I want the combi-bolter modeled on the rhino.

It would also probably take less time to modify the existing hatches than it took to make any of the entirely too many posts there have been on the subject, so, you know, there's that.

So find (buy) other units to put the leftover pintle weapons on. This is the 30k thread, never not be buying more useless expensive resin toys.

Forge World hosed up one of my orders that had a few pintle weapon sets in it. It never appeared so I e-mailed them about a replacement. They shipped one out and the original order showed up a few days later, giving me double. I now have all the combi-bolters and multi-meltas I need. I grafted the multi-meltas to the blank cupola covers and I have my rhinos magnetized between the split combi-bolters and the single combi-bolters with multi-meltas. I have enough for 6 rhinos even though I only have three currently. Anyways, I had a ham dream last night. A package came in from Forge World with a loving warhound in it. I was sure I hadn't ordered one, but all the shipping/billing details checked out. I was confused and angry and wondering how this could have happened, knowing I can't really afford something like that right now. Then I opened up the box and saw that it had come with a broken, bent turbo laser and a mega bolter. I distinctly thought, "I wouldn't order a loving mega bolter, this couldn't have been me." I was trying to figure out how to send it back for a refund and to replace it with a glaive when I woke up.

chutche2 posted:Oh? They seem like they slot in comfortably enough that they don't need magnetizing, other than having the pintle magnetized to come off if it's attached direct to the hull.  What I did was glue a bit of spure under the roof of the rhino, running under the holes where the cupolas go. I glued the cupolas themselves in place, but left the covers separate. I glue a flat, round magnet to the sprues and then built a stack of one or two magnets on the undersides of the covers, gluing them in place. I could've used spacers, but I was lazy and had a surplus of magnets. The intent was to reach the magnet on the sprue, but a gap doesn't matter too much as the magnetic attraction keeps them in place. They pull off easily enough, but won't dislodge from simple, general use.

I seem to remember some Japanese tanks in WWII that made use of machineguns with 20 round or so magazines. Reminds me of that. Anyway, my plastic cataphractiis came today and I literally can't tell the difference between their combi bolters and a storm bolter so I feel fine now using storm bolters on these vehicles. The cataphractii combi bolters are virtually identical to the stock 40k rhino storm bolters, the rhino just uses two boxes instead of two drums and is a bit bulkier.
