Mock up of my first Eradicator/Havoc, I like my autocannon better than GW's,
cause theirs don't fit together right.

Yes, you read that right it does have Havocs in the list, so I guess that means I auto lose! LOL Here's my thinking, havocs may be less mobile than Oblits, but they can put out more shots and have more wounds in the long run. Most things that will auto-kill a havoc will do the same to a 2 wound oblit. Besides autocannons are kool!
Titus needed a new pic, so enjoy!

I'm dieing to get this list on the table as I have not used Titus in a while, and him combined with Xusia should be brutal!
GREAT looking Havoc, sir!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved the fact that CSM can field Autocannons. While not the greatest weapon out there, they are fantastic when facing Rhino Chasis or even Dark Eldar.
ReplyDeleteYes, six havocs can lay down more fire than 2 Obliterators and get auto killed a little less frequently. I have also been thinking about fielding them....however...I really enjoy the mobility of Oblits.
it is a heavy bolter,.. but what is the part you attached to the front?? where did that come from? good looking model sir.

@Pat it looks like a Reaper Autocannon from a Chaos Terminator.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments guys.
ReplyDeletePat it is the autocannon barrel from the Chaos Marine Havoc blister. The arms really suck for building the original model I just couldn't make them line up; so I took the barrel and mounted it on a sturdy heavy bolter chassis.

Good guess Mags!
ReplyDeleteI had to give it a try...LOL.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the metal barrel on the old Terminator with the Reaper...
...guess I need to buy some Chaos Havocs. LOL
Don't rush out to do it, cause I will be doing a guide for mine and giving some recommendations for making some custom Havocs.
