New contemptor dreadnought weapons

[snikrot]

I just found these pics online of some new weapons contemptor dreadnought weapons.

[DarkLink]

I want a dreadnought with dual assault cannons and a cyclone missile launcher...

I liked MR Bedfords joke in the seminar that they should produce a dreadnought with jump packs so people can have entire dreadnought armies.

The contemptor is kind of cute, reminds me of my pet frog. Still at this rate there will be more SM dreadnoughts than xenos kits combined.

These are quite awesome; love the idea of a dreadnought with a conversion beamer - making that gun Relentless suddenly makes it unbelievably good. Of course, the idea of a Dreadnought constantly running away does seem a little counterintuitive, but it does work...

The twin-linked Heavy Bolters look awesome. I also like the slightly camp pose they've given to the Dreadnought with the right-hand Plasma Cannon...

I just love this model ordered one soon as it was up on the site, the quality of my cast was amazing not a single flaw, washed, filed like 3-4 mold lines and put it together. Also it comes with 2 sets of feet, which is nice them big old boots fit quite nice on my deamon prince The ball and joint sockets are great recess in a magnet here and there and my Contemptor has 2 point of articulation in the waist, 2 in each arm and the head of course. Can't wait for that Heavy Conversion Beamer, it will be awesome! Also can't wait to find out about this Gravaton Gun in the hand? They will most likely make chapter ones of chaos ones so im screwed and will have to buy them all. Im going to end up with a dozen by this time next year if they keep this up

wow i love the assault connon one (but i thought they didnt exist at the hersy?) and whilst the guns are a tad small and one shinguard has a smaller indent for the foot than the other its awsome !

They did exsist, but they where new tech (Or old... or whatever, but I am sure you get my meaning :L)

Why in Terra's name did the old Dreadnoughts have way better firepower than current Dreadnoughts? Not to mention a better overall design.

I believe it's because it's 40K. Everything was actually better before, take the MK4 Power Armour for example.
Also the conversion beam is an ancient weapon the Imperium is unable to produce today.

Indeed, although the [URL="http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat570035a&prodId=prod1190 053a"]Tomb Kings Khemrian Warsphinx/Necrosphinx[/URL] is pretty much a Wraithlord aspect conversion kit. You can make a Warsphinx, then the Necrosphinx parts include:

Scorpion head-crest and tail (self-explanatory), arm-blades for Warp Spider, big metal feathered wings for Swooping Hawk, lots of skeleton-y bits for Dark Reaper.

Contrary to what Mat Ward would have you believe, the Imperium's current tech is a bit rubbish compared to their older stuff. They've lost a lot of the knowledge etc., although as mentioned, Mat Ward would have you believe that they're constantly making shiny new things and making the Tau look slow.
