Eldar Tempest Heavy Grav Tank

In preparation for some Apocalyptic action this weekend, I finished up the first of my (three) Eldar Tempest Heavy Grav Tanks the I have. this first one, I picked up last fall, I picked another up a month or so ago... and the third, well... it's still in the mail. But I figured I might as well get three so I could field a full Super Heavy Detachment with them.



An old Eldar Tempest Heavy Grav Tank produced by Armorcast under license from GW.

Now, there aren't any rules for a Tempest Heavy Grav-Tank anymore... but there is the Scorpion, which is armed with a "Twin Scorpion Pulsar" so I figured that's close enough...



In it's day it was a pretty big model... compared to the original rhinos and the Falcon's that armorcast made... now... I guess it's still bigger than the current plastic Falcons, so... hopefully I can still get away with it!

When I actually finish painting one of the Falcons I have, I'll post some pictures of them together for scale.


Coming Soon to Tim's Miniature Wargaming Blog:

Played our first Apocalypse games - with the new rules - this afternoon, so hopefully I'll get a brief report up about that. (Only got through one and a half turns - mind you I was the only one that's read the rules... and most of the players haven't even played THAT much 40K.... and I read them when I was super tired... so there was a lot of looking up of things.. but it was fun and once we've got the rules down, I think we'll be able to crank through some seriously epic games in a MUCH shorter period of time.
