"NYAAAH!!! Quit dancing about, you fool! I need to put you to the question using...The BLADES OF REASON!!!" - Asmodai (as voiced by Frank Todaro [i.e. Cobra Commander]) The Blades of Reason don't need rules. At all.

What "a lot of buffs?" Units get OC 1 instead of 0. Nothing else is mentioned. Am I missing something? We also have access to the Gladius Task Force Doctrine/stratagems though.

Because aircraft systems are more fragile than those of an equivalently-sized floaty tank. Who else is just pleased as punch that our Taskforce rule has gone back to being not just a reactionary rule, but a situationally reactive rule in response to our units having had their arses handed to them and then failing a Battle Shock test?

The detail is good. The pose? A bit undynamic. Imagine taking footage of a really awesome action sequence, and looking at it frame by frame. As you do so, you select a sequence where one awesome action pose transitions through a number of frames to another awesome action pose. Then, you move a few frames to in between either pose to one that is not exactly devoid of dynamism, but is certainly lesser in that regard. This is Dante's pose. I don't loathe the pose, but I'm not a gushing fan. Some very minor reposing would work wonders.

Which actor should play The Lion? Why, the greatest actor of all time of course - Kirk Lazarus! Even his last name more than implies rising from the dead!

Overall, a nice rendition of Snikrot. I'll get one whenever it is available separately, as I have the boarding box contents x 2 (almost x 3) already. What really tantalizes me though is the mention of... NAZDREG!!! Don't dangle that tidbit and screw me over yet again GW! You better have a Nazdreg coming!

I've included a Dreadnought in nearly every army list I have have made since 1988. Why? Because of imagining things like this stomping through the smoke of battle and murdilating stuff a' la Dawn of War 1 opening animation scene.

Lovely stuff as usual. I like the traditional decals on the white background. Provides some nice contrast, and makes the Chapter badge "pop." Some inspiration to get stuck in on the decal application:

Quad roastin' followed by the gatler to gib the roasty bits into proper serving sizes. Very considerate.

Agrax Earthshade here too, as I prefer a bit more contrast.

Thanks for the info all! I thought the doors must be Forgeworld, but I didn't see them on their website (OOP apparently). As for the front icon, I will unabashedly steal that idea from you, as I finish up my own tanks!

Very nice Bevulf! Where did you get the DA Chapter icons for the side doors and the smaller one on the front glacis from?

Go to your local .99Cents/Dollar Store/equivalent, and buy: * One package (5) 3"x5" sponges with small pore foam like those below. * One pack of (4) Deli Containers (8 oz./236 ml; *shallow depth*). * One roll of Parchment Paper. 1. Trim corners of a sponge so that is lays flat in Deli Container, with yellow small pore foam facing upward. 2. Cut parchment paper sheets to fit top yellow foam of sponge. 3. Saturate foam with water, and place parchment sheet on top. 4. Parchment sheet will initially curl up as it absorbs water, and will then uncurl as it becomes saturated. Smooth sheet to remove air bubbles. 5. Get to painting! Now you have FOUR re-seal-able wet palettes perfect for travel/storing, and for only about $3.20 US! Buy MORE models/paint with the money you save, because...um....you NEED them!!! * Note: The Deli Container is just the right size to fit in the smaller front pocket of a backpack, and fits perfectly in a hard case I use for a traveling paint kit. This hard case is tall enough to hold Vallejo style dropper bottle paints and any GW paints, and may be found here: https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-storage-organization/parts-storage/abs-storage-organizer-95807.html

Not October - ORKtober! WAAAAAAAGH!!!

They look really nice, but it will be tragic if there isn't also a Tanith infantry box coming out.
