Sooooo, a crappy AM predator? Less wounds, worse BS (going to a 6+), worse leadership, for a bit less and the option of taking wonky 40k volkite.

That price tag... Ouch. It's sad when that in GBP costs basically the same as a Predator in CAD.
No thanks.

And now that the conversions are all done on their site, it is $131 CAD + shipping. So you could buy that or two preds.

...oh wait... no one finds their quality better than regular GW anymore...lol
EDIT:
so for 84 points you can have a 4 shot S6 AP -1 D2 weapon that procs D3 mortals for every 6 to wound... not entirely terrible... it's just that BS chart gets pretty punishing pretty quickly.... I guess with rerolls nearby making those mortals more likely

Auto cannon is the same price as the stock weapon. You get +1 str but loose the 6s to wound giving d3 mortal wounds

You have to take sponsons though, so the cheapest it can be with the volkite is 100pts with two heavy bolters

FW, bringing you such consistency as the Leviathan Siege Dreadnought and the Fellblade.

I love these tanks. They are just weird imperial variants of marine tanks. Volkite is also another one of my favourite guns from 30k. I’d tempted to get these if they weren’t so much. But 104pts for a t7 vehicle with all volkite. So 8 shots maybe getting some mortal wounds through.

Don't get me wrong, volkite is glorious in 30k, and not terrible here, and the unit doesn't have abominable points efficiency like most FW units, and I dig the retro-futurist design which meshes with the rest of the Solar Auxilia range, but FW just doesn't have my love anymore for a multitude of reasons.
