So I've been working on a new attack bike squad for my Blood Ravens. From what I've been looking at rules wise, I think Biker armies are gonna be the default go-to army for 6th edition. Hammer of Wraith, T5 all the time, a 12" move with an extra D6 charge range, relentless. I mean let's face it bikers got a lot going for 'em now.
So here is my new and freshly converted attack bike squad:
So I'm sure you're sitting there saying "Wait a second, you said they were converted. And that they were attack bikes. Yeah the one dude's got the scanner array backpack, but what's actually converted? And why aren't they attack bikes?"
Well, I guess I used the wrong word. I think I would have been better off saying they are transformable as opposed to converted. Allow me to show you what I mean. Here is the same bike squad with different bitz:
You can see the two forward most bikers are now armed with a melta gun and plasma gun. Here is another change:
I magnatized them so I can swap the configurations between Biker and attack bike. With the addition of magnets in the right shoulder, the models are able to swap arms so they can be armed with different weapons. By putting magnets in select locations in the under carraige of the bike and matching points on the side car I can attach and detach the side car as needed.
Wow. That is kind of totally awesome. Great way to max out kits & bits!
ReplyDeleteYeah well after I got smacked in the face with some $700 worth of medical bills my disposable income... well was disposed of. So I have to try and use what I have on hand for the time being.
ReplyDeleteThat sucks. Great creative solution though. Sorry to hear about your health, but your brain sure is balancing out the deficit!
ReplyDeleteVery Very creative, love the idea.
