Forgeworld Reaver weapons question

Hello there,

I seek assistance from anyone who may own or has seen the information concerning the ForgeWorld Reaver Titan weapon load options. From the FW site, it appears there are 4 arm weapon options currently available: Power Fist, Laser Blaster, Gatling Blaster, Melta Cannon. Are there any others listed in the Imperial Armor 2 book that are not yet made by FW? I do not currently own the book, but eventually will get it.

I am looking to field an old Armorcast Reaver with a powerfist and need to scratchbuild a second game-legal weapon arm. Before I commence with that, I just wanted to know my options.

Thanks in advance for any help.

There is one other arm option than the 4 you listed. That would be the Volcano Cannon. Also, if you're looking to go nuts, there are 6 options for carapace weapons. The standard is the Apocalypse Missile Launcher. However, a Reaver can also have the following on it's carapace:

double-barreled turbo laser
plasma blastgun
inferno gun
vulcan mega-bolter
vortex support missile

Thanks for the info, it will certainly help. I have the bits from a shadowsword to make a volcano cannon, so that might be what I end up going with to start. If I end up playing against a half dozen stompas or warhounds (which is likely) then maybe I will mount the turbo laser to the carapace instead of the missle launcher since that is an option, to try and thin the herd a bit.

Thanks again.
