Presenting a new IG tank, the Annihilator (basically a guard version of the Predator)
Death Korps of Krieg Leman Russ Annihilator (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/dkkcent.htm)
As well as the DK Demolisher.

Frankly the Demolisher isn't what I'd hoped. I think it looks too much like a Conqueror (which ISN'T a good thing).
BTW: they are both GBP48 (or roughly $95US before shipping).
Share and Enjoy.

....Eh...
I don't know why it needs those rockers on the back if it's shooting lascannons
how much push do those things have when compared to a LR?

Those are actually called 'trench rails'. They are there so tanks don't roll backward when crossing over trenches. They haven't seen real use on terra since the start of M02 :rolleyes:

This is fairly old news actually.
It was announced and even shown off in a previous news letter WEEKS ago by FW.
Still, damn fine tanks. I love the DKoK range.

I think you'll find that these are the newest versions, released for public sale on 2/2/07. This is the third release, the two previous each having two tank variants as well. You're probably thinking of the previous one with the Executioner and the Extinguisher. One of which has TL AutoCannons, rather than the TL LasCannons on the Annihilator, which is a totally new IG tank similar to the SM Predator.

Agreed, that Annihilator is an awfully sweet looking tank.
But.....
Speaking as a Marine commander, if the Guard are gonna steal our Annihilator Pattern turrets, I want a Battle Cannon or something for my Predator!! :(( :D

With the exception of the demolisher cannon I like the new FW parts. I agree that it just looks too similar to a Conqueror cannon and doesn't say "I'm a huge cannon that's going to blow you to tiny pieces"
