Nemesis bolters are sniper rifles. Kraken bolters are the special ammo ones

I picked up the box set on Sat, but haven't decided on if I want to go Loyalist or Traitor, but my FLGS has one Kratos tank left in stock. Is it usable by both sides, and is it worth picking up regardless of which Legion I sell my soul to?

The large order I put in including the box has been pending since the day it was put up for preorder. The tank I managed to order last weekend is already shipped and on its way. They must be real backed up.

Mine hasn't shipped yet either, which is pretty annoying given that a) I submitted the order about five minutes after the preorder went live on the Canadian store and b) I could literally walk across the street and buy everything I ordered at a discount at the FLGS that opened three days ago in the mall across from my apartment building.

(Except I am 100% sure that if I cancelled my order and then went over to buy the stuff, I'd discover they sold the last copy of the box between yesterday and today, and if I buy the stuff now before canceling my order, I'm 100% sure I'd get a shipping notification and my order would become ineligible for cancellation by the time I walked back to my apartment.)

Anyway, point being yeah they seem to be having fulfillment issues.

Is the Deimos-pattern Rhino the same size as the Sororitas rhinos (and their other vehicles that use the rhino chassis)? I'm just wondering if I can get away with using my Sororitas rhinos while I build out the rest if my army, then pick up the Deimos-pattern rhinos last.

You can use whatever Rhinos you want, imo. I'm going to keep using my old plastic ones just because I don't really see the need to spend 200 bucks updating them.

It is good as a way to fall asleep I found. I don’t think it’s a horrible channel, but I can certainly understand why it is very much not for everyone. It was useful initially for me as a this person updates all the time totes a good way to stay in the loop, but I’ve found other channels that do that and that are little more….alive and also not just slide shows.

Does anyone have a preferred set of Jump packs/arms to print to turn some of the box beakies into assault marines? I've been looking at cults and thingiverse and there's a ton of stuff, but I can't tell if any of it is good or not.

Etsy has a lot of options for that sort of thing if you're ok with already printed stuff. For jump packs, these look reasonably good, but I haven't bought from that store before so I can't tell you if they actually are.

Yeah the Mars pattern is around in 30K and was even favoured by Iron Warriors, something about better environmental sealing.

Is the special weapons upgrades set usable with the MK3 and MK4 and if not does it at least seem like they can be modified to work?

They’re not designed for it but I think people have made it work. The older marines have an open left hand that stuff sits in (so only one hand on any weapons) whereas the new ones have both hands modelled as part of the gun because they fit specific marines from the new kit exactly.

You’ll need to cut off the open left hand and you’ll probably need some filler to get the hand attached correctly. Alternatively you can try sanding down the extra hand on the special weapon and sit it in the open hand of the old marine.

Oh weird, I figured there'd be more cross compatibility since with the old kits everything but the MKIV rocket launcher was meant to be used with the same arms you'd use for the bolter.

But the new ones have the left hand molded onto the handguards so you're probably going to have to clip those hands off.
