FW Contemptor Dread

Post by Brian Adair »

Hey folks,

I have a guy that wants to sell me a Contemptor, which I was thinking of picking up. Problem is, I dont have the IA book yet and hence dont know the weapon profiles or what weapons I would want to get. Can someone help me out with that? I dont need to know point costs etc as I think that is a no no. But if someone could list (or PM me) the type of weapons it can be outfitted with and the damage they do that would be great.

I was thinking of doing dual assault cannons, I just didnt know if they were the same profile as the assault cannons in 40k. Also, if anyone has ideas on what would be the best Anti Flier config that would be great too..

Thanks.

looking over FW's site, all i see is the AC left arm. That would imply you could only take 1 and it would be on the left.

I think Jul has the FW books. He might be able to help.

There is a "Mortis" pattern one with two guns, but I am pretty sure the gun arms are universal to either side the way the Contemptor is built.
If I forget to post a reference for you, please let me know!
If you are not going to post a reference for me, please explain why, maybe I can fix it!
