He’s a 12 tonne, bad tempered, doom-laden son of a gun. But boy is
he lethal at taking out unsuspecting enemy armour at 500 paces. It’s the searing
Lascannon death that is the Mortifactors Heavy Weapons Dreadnought!
You can almost hear them cooking in their tanks…

Alongside his sarcophagus entombed battle brother, the Assault Dreadnought, this fella brings a different kind of tactical option to the table for the Mortifactors in the form of a Missile Launcher and twin linked Lascannon.
That
said, he’s no slouch in close combat and will happily take the opportunity to
open up with his flamer given half the chance…
I wanted
to try and add a greater sense of motion and dynamic with both Dreadnought
conversions and so opted to position the arms raised or spread away from the
body. This meant modelling in the power cabling to help ensure the positioning of
the arms remained mechanically viable…
Rules
wise, this fella still operates as your standard twin linked Lascannon
Dreadnought but the idea behind splitting the Lascannons, one to each arm, was
to emphasise the more maverick, almost gun-slinger approach, this gnarly old
fella took to sighting targets and blasting them into the warp…

Well,
stay tuned for even more Mortifactors WIP goodness. Lord knows what’ll rear it’s
ritual skull helm next…?
Until
next time ;)
