Pricing is interesting with the Rhino and Contemptor only fractionally cheaper (even closer if you go for a bundle), but the dozer blade is a nice addition for the former. Even the Cataphractii are close in price. The only one that would tempt me away from FW at these prices in the Tactical Squad. Still all good if it helps some more gamers get in at the ground floor :-)
ReplyDeletefar cheaper than buying a Contemptor with all those weapon options though. Interesting thing I noticed recently is if you do have the weapons of the Space Crusade Dreadnought they fit on the Contemptor elbow joint really nicely.
