Then an optional Assault Heavy Bolter too in the fist arm, so a lot of weapons - but the trade off looks to be Armour - expect the armour save to be less than the Redemptor - this is a Dreadnought-lite that treads quietly :)Siph_Horridushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159625883822754521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-21186592001292902102019-08-08T08:15:51.669+01:002019-08-08T08:15:51.669+01:00I agree, price point is going to be the biggest de...I agree, price point is going to be the biggest deal here. I imagine they will be priced competitively to push the new models. <br /><br />I don't mind the Invictor actually. It looks ok to me.

Not inherently bad, but they really do need a Rhino equivalent at some point here, something that can haul around full Squads and doesn't take up 15% of your Points.<br /><br />I still really don't like the Invictor Model, but at least the Rules are looking better now that it's been revealed to have an actual gun instead of just a bunch of Heavy Stubbers.WestRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10221228665636182019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-77245392009737927102019-08-07T22:30:58.550+01:002019-08-07T22:30:58.550+01:00I'm not sure if those are more Autocannon or j...I'm not sure if those are more Autocannon or just Ironhail Heavy Stubbers.

That would make the Sgt options much more worthwhile. Of course, then price point potentially becomes a major issue, because if they come in at like 50 Points each, they're still gonna suck.WestRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10221228665636182019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-8916589267912556452019-08-07T21:50:34.140+01:002019-08-07T21:50:34.140+01:00It’s not a dreadnought!

That's 12 shots man. Huge of true. On top of that the same autocannons are the vehicle or you can have a versatile missile launcher. I think this could be a massive unit in the army.
