…let them burn in the fires of retribution or somesuch rubbish…
The Repressor kit comes with a resin flamer for a hatch ring.
Combined with the plastic hatch ring from the extras sprue, it will go on the top of the Repressor structure.
It went together very easily.
I decided to make the hatch closed, if this was a Sisters of Battle Repressor or a Adeptus Arbites Repressor then I may have added a gunner, as this will be used for different units I decided to make it closed.
Squiggoth on the move with a bundle of Orks…
In a recent game I used my Ork Squiggoth something I haven’t used for a while. Well let’s just say he didn’t perform as well as he has in other games.
Here he is with some of my Orks and a pair of Killa Kans advancing on Simon’s Imperial Guard.
The Orks lost by the way…
Emplaced Imperial Guard Turret.
In a defensive position.
Imperial Guard Tarantual in cityfight terrain (in the country).
This is the Forgeworld model from Simon’s collection, emplaced in a recent game. I think it may have done better less out in the open and in the ruins of an Imperial city as it was it was not only isolated, but quite easy for my Orks to avoid.

As well as Ork Boyz, there are Killa Kans and a Squiggoth in support. Photograph from a recent game.
Ork Shoota Boyz from my collection advance on a Tyranid horde.
From a recent game (which I lost).
Genestealers from Simon’s collection.
Nasty critters advancing.
carve and file…
After much thought about the ill-fitting top on my Sisters of Battle Repressor I decided initially to try and file down the Rhino body to allow the resin superstructure fit.
This wasn’t really working, so I decided to trim the back of the superstructure.
This allowed the superstructure to fit.
But it wasn’t a perfect fit.
This was more apparent on the front.
Where there was quite a large gap.
Time to get out the green stuff (putty).

Tyranid Warriors start to prowl forward.
