Blood Pact Urideshi AT70 Reaver





This is a very simple vehicle. It is kit-bashed from a model of a Czech tank, made in Russia, as a copy of a mid-war British design.

The AT70 is a nonSTC Medium tank that is the equivalent of a Leman Russ so if one wants to be codex legal then just use the same stats.

I have equipped it with a flame thrower as the secondary weapon. I have omitted sponsons on the grounds that the AT70 is less sophisticated than an Imperial Tank.

  3. Dear Col
    I wandered into my local GW on Monday last week to find three of the four staff off sick, two on Tamiflu with diagnosed swine flu. Tuesday my temperature went through the roof. I have only just recovered so the Imperial Scum, aka my mate Shaun, kindly agreed to delay their next set of attacks until I am feeling better. I hope to be back in the trenches this week.

  5. Ah, Swineflu stops invasion, it's like a title of a tabloid. Ironically, I can see an invasion getting postponed because the commanders got a cold. Especially after reading some of the gaunts ghosts books.

    Get well soon mate.

  6. Great work, your usual flair for weathering a vehicle shines through. The stowage is a great touch that adds a certain gravity to the model. Nicely done.

    Feeling much better now that the fever's gone. Will soon be fighting fit and at my daemonic best.

    Whenever I see pics of real tanks in the field they are covered in stowage.

    Thanks for the kind comment, appreciated.

  9. Just pondering, John; Looking at the Leman Russ and its commerical vehicle like track arangements (ie not much in the way of suspension), I'd say that your AT70 is actually more advanced. I can feel a rant coming on...

  10. Actually, I suppose the russ is an old design, it's replicated to the same plan across the imperium strictly regulated by the Ad. Mech with any developments being punished for heresy.

    I suppose renegades wouldn't have this restriction and so could develop more sophisticated vehicles and weapons.

    Just a thought.
