Looks very Mech Warrior 3, though not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing at this point.

an entire mechwarrior themed army would be awesome... I'd say knights and guard could really pull it off

Looks bigger than a regular dread. Maybe a 4-6 HP beast dread.

It's a Madcat mixed with a Rifleman. Could do some wicket conversion work there I think.
Also there's heavy bolters under that armoured nose piece. This thing looks like a massive fire platform.

And a lot of eggs in one basket. It'd still get eaten alive by drop melta like most armor unless it's got a fancy invul save. To be honest I wouldn't be opposed to some new havoc options... Maybe updating some HH era weaponry for 40k...

Apparently it's a "Deredeo" dreadnought. Missed the mark on the name, it looks like a battle mech and has multi-melta nipples... I don't even know what the hell to think about this monstrosity.

Not a fan of it at all, but the name came from back in Rogue Trader, there were three dreadnaught marks, Contemptor, Deredeo and Furibundus or something like that.

I actually like it, as it evokes fond memories of MechWarrior.

Yeah, I agree. Like I said MadCat had a baby with a Rifleman. Could do some awesome conversion work on that to make it more Mech Warrior.
Maybe like some backwards jointed legs? Not putting the head in there and making a rounded canopy so it looks like a cockpit instead.
Doing just that last one would change a lot of peoples views on it I think.

I'm actually not minding the model as much after seeing a painted version... those rules though, that's pretty sick... 4 shots at S8 that reroll failed armor pen? on an AV13 dread? you can split fire with the missiles? and has an invul save?  yes please! |

yes please!
