Forward Assist Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Members of the MDRC, you may have seen Robbienw's excellent posts about the forthcoming Angels of Caliban in the BL sub-forum. Here's a particularly interesting snippet: The Dark Angels have less Mechanicum personnel than other Legions. This is because they were fully formed as a fighting force before the Emperors alliance with Mars, and their support structure was made up of the emperors terran technicians, and this has continued through the centuries of the crusade. They do have some mechanism personnel, but noticeably fewer then the other legions. The warp weapon technology the Dark Angels possess is specifically stated to be of Terran design, not martian. So, could this lead to the creation of an affiliated club: the Terran Death Ray Club? And, just as importantly, what noise do warp weapons make? VWOIP?

Olis Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Intriguing snippet, brother. I think perhaps, at best, a subdivision of the regular club would suffice although many more details and interested parties are needed for that to happen. As for warp weapons, I would think it would be a similar sound to vortex weaponry (missiles, grenades) when they go off. Here's a video of weapon sounds that people may find relevant. Four minutes forty-four seconds is the mark for the noise you want. Noises are alleged to come from this publication: http://www.blacklibrary.com/all-products/Munitorum-Volume-I.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forward Assist Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Er... Umm... Well, this particular arms race might be more a 'tortoise vs the hare' event. As, you know, I've gone off about Terran Death Rays without there being any rules, models, or - indeed - a timeline for their hypothetical release. But, er, yeah I'm in.

helterskelter Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Sorry for the double post but this eve I thought I'd try and do something that may be useful to some brothers and sisters, first a PICTURE HEAVY WARNING so I bring you:- The Helterskelter Telerac Pattern Volkite Culverin mounting procedure! What you will need: Superglue Tweezers A take out plastic tub or other suitable wide tub that can withstand boiling water One pre built marine to the degree shown Your clean Volkite parts http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_194909_zpsv7ualb0o.jpg Step one: using the superglue, glue together your Culverin rig as shown. While this is drying boil the kettle and fill your recepticle. WARNING BOILING WATER CAN CAUSE SERIOUS HARM!!! BE SAFE, IF YOU ARE A YOUNGER FRATER FOLLOW THIS TUTORIAL WITH A BUDDY OR PARENTS http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_195134_zpsvedco6wr.jpg Step 2: using the tweezers, lift your rig and carefully submerge into the water, it will take about 10 seconds, if that, to go as floppy as you need to work the piece into place http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_195329_zpskds9dtqw.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_195334_zps3w7kmsqw.jpg Step 3: remove the piece from the water, carefully dripping away excess water, we now have around 30 seconds to work the piece on place, i have asbestos fingers with callous' due to guitar playing and gardening so I can handle parts with little to no problem from the heat, you may not be so lucky so be careful! Line up the back pack and the hand to their relevant positions, but it is OK if you don't get it first, second or even third try, be patient, the water stays hot for a good while, you will get it :) once positioned, hold until the rig is reasonably firm. http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_195546_zpskweh6kpa.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_195600_zpsgydh6pim.jpg Step 4: use your superglue to cement the rigs position and when dry finish your model! http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_195703_zps7uoz8r2e.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz184/Lamenterkyle/Mobile%20Uploads/20160604_200218_zpsuyamndhb.jpg And that my dear members of the Martian Death Ray Club is that, I hope this may help some overcome their fear of FW pipe bending, or just generally be a little bit useful.

KBA Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 My box of choom came from the UK a couple days ago. Progress/Test fits: http://s33.postimg.org/6yoguixb3/image.jpg I've also decided to go with the telerac culvs over the Jetbike versions. They fit better, and have the crescent shroud like the other VoLTE weapons on this beast, so it'll tighten up the unity of the model IMO: http://s33.postimg.org/45v9ahwyn/image.jpg Hope to have this built by weekends end :) geordie, Shaolin_Monkey, Gorgoff and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excessus Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Did you see the little mini-nerf to volkite weapons in the 7th ed FAQ? FnP rolls counts as saves now...when it's released properly, that is... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0nolith Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 So I was just listening to the Wolf Hunt audio drama, the mini sequel to The Outcast Dead (which was absolutely fantastic IMO), and there is a sequence where a volkite gun is used. Being that it is an audio drama and not an audio book there was an accompanying sound effect...and... sadly *choom* is not the sound GW went with, more like a *weeeee-bzzzzz*. Thinking if this is the only "official" sound effect for volkite, gotta say im a little disappointed :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
