On a recent visit to Warhammer World I picked up a Deathstrike kit. This is an online only model.
This Deathstrike is based on the Chimera APC hull and can either be built as a Deathstrike platform or as a Manticore multiple rocket platform. This was originally released back in 2010 and unlike many other vehicles that were based on Epic models, a version was never released by Forge World. The Epic version does have a much bigger missile, however that always looked like a strategic missile, rather than a battlefield tactical missile.
My plan is to paint this as a Tallarn Deathstrike to go with my Tallarn infantry.
The kit comes with two sprues, one for the hull and one with the specific components to convert the base Chimera chassis for the Deathstrike and the Deathstrike missile as well. As this kit can be built as a Manticore, there are additional components for that version as well.
The kit went together very easily. Though looking at the photographs I realised I left off the front hatch.
I left off the tracks to paint them separately, the same went for the missile. In theory the firing platform can be raised, but I am not sure if that will survive the painting process.
