1st edition landspeeder

[z_man280]

I'm thinking about scratch building some with a a Multimelta devastator as the passenger rather than mounting the weapon on the speeder frame itself.

not sure about the secondary weapon yet.

Ive got three of them now what do you want a photo of?

If you could get a front, back, top, bottom, and either side I would really appreciate it. Perhaps with a good size reference, perhaps a ruler or a current space marine.

wow dude they are moldy oldies right there, but they still nice. i got a old school razorback and that is one of my favorite tanks. its the only classic tank i have and to this day i still like it better then the new style.

its this style. this one aint mining. my is black templar with the twin lascannon turret. i was too lazy to dig it out.

Oh god, those first ed ones look like flying death traps. I'd rather walk.

How they made the 1st ed LS

Tech priest: Hey... What happens if we slap an engine to this... Stick?
Tech marine: I dunno, lets try it and put some random weirdos on it and see what happens!
Tech priest: Good idea! Oh lets do like this too, lets not put on ANY protection it, it'll look fancy when the marine' hair flows in the wind!
Random marine: But we have helmets...
Tech priest: Shut your mouth, you can always imagine it...

Still... Horrible...

jammer@ That razorback is way better than the current! I want one!

Cheers!

They are marines encased in 2387983475 inches of power armour, why would they need any additional protection??
And, it wasn't a stick, it was a love seat. =D

They wouldn't, that's why Rhinos with passengers firing out of them don't count as open topped It even says so in the rulebook.

Or at least, it did in the 4th ed one. I don't know about 5th ed, I haven't read through it that closely. I only paid attention to the bits that were different.

if you read in the codex about the landspeeders, it says that the increased armor was for the drive systems not the crew.

[Demon in White]

Haha, shows how much they care

Well If the speeder blows then both marines die. If one marine's shot then one marine dies
