Deredeo Dreadnought has arrived. Rules added.

The Deredeo has landed, and it was worth the wait! 

The Deredeo pattern Dreadnought is a dedicated heavy support frame, though it shares many core components and systems with the more general assault-based Contemptor class. Initially deployed in limited numbers to each of the Legions due to difficulties in its manufacture, its durability and firepower saw demand for the Deredeo pattern dramatically increase after the outbreak of the Horus Heresy.

The Deredeo Pattern Dreadnought is a multi-part resin kit which includes the sarcophagus-mounted heavy bolters or heavy flamer options and an 80mm plastic base.  This model is available to pre-order now and will be despatched from Friday January 30th.


One of the primary weapon systems the Deredeo can mount is the twin-linked Anvilus autocannon battery, a fearsome development of the autocannon that can engage and destroy armoured targets with a punishing salvo of fire.


Mounted onto the carapace of the Deredeo pattern Dreadnought, the Aiolos missile launcher which, with its sophisticated targeting system, can track targets independently of the primary weapons system and regardless of intervening terrain.




Revised. 
Not too bad rules either. Definitely an Anti-air Dreadnought. Now let's just hope we see a Fury and Warhawk soon.

  4. I'm will have to see it in person. Although it does look pretty deadly so I hope to rules do reflect that

  5. I really really like it, the amount of big guns is just sweet. I'd like to see where it falls into the org, I'm hoping heavy support and what, if any, other guns it could have.

  7. Liked it so much I ordered one with my free shipping voucher as soon as I saw it was up on the website, looking forward to putting it next to my original 'Eddie' to see how much it dwarfs it.

  8. Does anyone else think the helcal targeting array is a nod to the hellcat mech which this sorta resembles

    1. No, isn't it the standard system that Mortis pattern Dreads have?

  9. Surely the Furibundus would be next, if the original 80's dreads are any guide......
