Building more of the Kill Bursta

Forge World’s big Ork tank mounts a huge gun ready to take on any Imperial BaneBlade or even Titan.

Having fixed the sides, the next stage was the top of the superstructure and the turrets.

The engine was added to the rear.

The main armament was added to the front. This was another piece that I thought didn’t fit too well.

Still one mean looking Ork warmachine.

Building the Kill Bursta

Forge World’s big Ork tank mounts a huge gun ready to take on any Imperial BaneBlade or even Titan.

Having built the chassis, the next stage was the superstructure. This didn’t quite fit as well as I thought it should.

There were a fair few gaps. However with a model such as this, the gaps were less obvious than would be on an Imperial model.

After fitting the sides, the Doza Blade was added.

This is one big tank.

Kill Bursta

Forge World’s big Ork tank mounts a huge gun ready to take on any Imperial BaneBlade or even Titan.

This is quite an easy model to put together.

The tracks were quite warped, however by immersing them in hot water it was straightforward to fix them to the suspension.

Unlike the Kil Krusha or the Big Trakk the tracks for the Kil Bursta were much easier to fit.

I do like the look of this model, the ramshackle thrown together look.

It does go well together.

The main engine is suitably Orky.

The front and rear hull was added to the model.

The parts fitted quite well.

This is one big tank.

Ork Kill Bursta Tank

The Kill Bursta mounts a huge-bore Kannon capable of destroying bunkers and siegeworks with ease.

As with the Kill Krusha you do get a lot of resin.

The tracks were quite warped, nothing that a little hot water wouldn’t fix. I really like the commander figure.

The first job was to wash the resin before construction.

Ork Kill Bursta and Kill Blasta

Oh, nice new Ork models from Forge World.

The Kill Bursta

and the Kill Blasta.

These two fearsome machines of destruction are variants on the Kill Krusha, nefarious brainchild of the Murda Meks of Tigrus. Both new kits come with a highly characterful Ork commander and Grot communication system, as well as additional turrets for even more dakka.

With typical Ork ingenuity, Mekboys often nail huge rams and bulldozer blades to the front of what are collectively known as Kill Tanks – all the better to crush and bludgeon the enemy as these brutal vehicles plough through even the heaviest fire.

These huge models are hulking, slab-sided armoured behemoths: each model is around 10’’ long, 5’’ wide, and 5’’ high – take a look at the picture galleries below to see these new Kill Tanks compared to other kits in the Warhammer 40,000 range.

The Kill Bursta mounts a huge-bore Kannon capable of destroying bunkers and siegeworks with ease – the calibre of its devastating shells are such that a single round has even been known to tear the leg from a scout-class Titan (although this could be as much down to luck than the skill of the tanks crew). More pictures of the Kill Bursta can be found here.

The Kill Blasta mounts an insane array of Shootas, Gatlers and rapid-firing Kannons, collectively called a Giga-Shoota. This arsenal of dakka is wired to fire at the same time, engulfing anything unlucky enough to be within range in a fury of shot and shell, leaving nothing but scorched earth and fragments of flesh and armour. More pictures of the Kill Blasta can be found here.

Both Kill Tanks are full resin kits designed by Darren Parwood, with crew sculpted by Mark Bedford, and are available to order here for immediate release.

Full rules and background for both the Kill Blasta and Kill Bursta will be included in the forthcoming Imperial Armour 8.

I do really like these new ‘eavy tanks for the Orks. Very tempted to get them both.

Kill Bursta – New Forge World Ork Tank

At Dutch Frenzy today, there were some new models on the Forge World stand. As well as the Valkyrie Heavy Lift Variant for the Tauros Venator Rapid Strike Vehicle there was a new Ork tank, that may or may not by called the Kill Bursta.

Kill Bursta - New Forge World Ork Tank

Based in the same chassis as the already released Kill Krusha it though has a much bigger gun! As it won’t have interior detail, it will also be cheaper than the Kill Krusha.

It looks like it will have a crew.

Very nice, really like it, especially the plow.
