This was the last model of the Praetorian Guard that I needed to collect. It ended up costing a fortune but at least I now has one of every model which was the goal!
“A Missile Launcher is a weapon that can fire several types of self-propelled, usually guided Missile, including both the common Frag and Krak Missiles.
Frag (Fragmentation) projectiles are designed to spray a designated area with shrapnel, making these munitions highly useful against groups of lightly armoured infantry.
Krak projectiles cover less area with their blast, but their warheads have improved armour-penetration capabilities, making them useful for taking down either heavily armoured infantry or moderately armoured vehicles.” 40k Wiki
Great work on your Praetorian’s Dave, shame it cost you so much, but at least you now have the full set.
Thanks Dave. It was a few works continually looking on eBay until one came up.
Nice! 🙂 Glad you managed to get hold of one!
I love the Praetorian’s wish I’d bought them back at the time, from what you’ve hinted at I won’t be getting them now!
Great painting too, by the way 😉.
Cheers Roger.
Only if you mortgage your house!
Thanks John. The figures looked really badly painted on eBay and even worse when they arrived. Once they were stripped and red0ne they came up fine. I am still trying to get a few more heavy weapon crews for the Valhallans to finish them off, and I will get to painting the last of the Tallarns in the next few months.
They look great- nothing like sniper marines with Krak missiles.
Cheers,
Pete.
Thanks Pete. Missile launchers have always been my favourite Impy Guard weapon.
The Praetorians are just about peak silliness for the GW Guards. I love them.
The Mordians have a bigger “peak”!
lol; indeed, only a North Korean Colonel would challenge a Mordian in a hat challenge.
Brilliant but yeah the old Prae Guard is bloody pricey. I’ll have to dig out what I have. Not sure if I’ve got the launcher set
I now have one of each model in the “set” so that is all I was after with this group. Enough for a couple of squads,a heavy weapons squad and a command squad. Should be able to hold Orks drift!
Truly, heroes of the British Empire, let alone the Imperium.
Yep. These will replace the British rockets and their frag grenades will easily deal with your French columns! For King and Empire!
Nice work – at least you’ve got them now and don’t need to buy them again. Unless you’re going to set up some support squads! 🙂
Thanks. No support squads but I am still working on finishing the Tallarn and some extras for the Valhallans. I am also a few figures short for the Mordian collection which I am scouring the web for!
