vanquisher, without a doubt! (I've ended up with 2) dunno what rules thingy your talking bout, but in 500pts, oyu wont get many tanks (or opponents I'd think) and at combat patrol (I play these at 400pts, I think thats the norm), you cant play anything due to the armour limit  |

I don´t have any army usding the Forge World rules for Armoured Companies or whatever it´s called. But I do have three tanks bought from them ;D, three Ryza/Mars Alpha pattern Leman Russ tanks!  They looks great! Here is a pic of FW´s one: www.forgeworld.co.uk/ryzalr.htm |

Wow! You´ve got to show us pics of that! Sounds really cool! Was it hard to saw/cut up that resin..?

there's like a full 1" gap on the bottom rear of the model where the resin ends and the plastic begins and there was insane amounts of flashing on the hull pieces..it didnt fit with the rest of the plastic kit and one drop and it'll probably break  needless to say I'm very careful with it. I'll post some pics of it shortly though I'm not a total fan of how it turned out. -edit- took some pics of my army..gotta have em developed and I'll post em up on my PBase account so you all can see |

Yeah, I got a large gap down there, as well, not 1" though, more like 1/4". I love the look of it, it´s far superior to "normal" Russes. ;D Hmm, I wonder where the H*ll I´ve done with my pics of it..? I´ll have to snap new ones I think... Give us pics anyways, it sounds really nice.  |

www.pbase.com/skipprjoe/image/46505615there's a pic of my demolisher ' Old Ironsides' I personally hate the way the wash turned out..far too streaky for me..I might repaint it catachan green and then rewash it (no camoflauge) you can see the results of the tank being winged by a chaos orbital melta-strike during the height of the 13th black crusade on the trackguards; they're a little melted and warped as a result (I left the tank in my car on a hot summers gaming day..good thing that forgeworld resin is immune to warpage or the tank wouldnt have survived..all I have left of my chimera is the little turret..the rest was melted so bad I gave it away)

Hmmm... I can´t access the pic... Though i am a member of the B&C. Sounds like a sad accident, stupid sun! (Note to self, use sungalsses for you tanks on Daemon Worlds. ) I´m paiting my Guardsmen in Catachan Green, great colour! What do you wash it with..? |

It looks really nice! At first I didn´t see, it was the one you mentioned above, where you shortened the barrell. Do the track guards fit nicely? I didn´t use mine, gave them to a friend... And I have to rethink my dislike for sponsons, doesn´t look too bad... ;D But I might not, I like my ones as they are... |

I had to trim the track guards a bit to get them to fit..nothing major though.
if you think you could stand the sponson weapons, I HIGHLY recommend them as they make your tank 2x as useful, 3x as useful if you go with a vanquisher mod since the main gun is dediated to AT

Hmm, I got an idea..! I was about to convert an Exterminator for my Space Wolves, but was going to use Predator heavy bolters (looks a bit more high-tech). Maybe I can use that idea on my Guard´s Russes, might lookdecent..! I´ll give it a try, just need to order a spare heavy bolter sprue...

Yeah, I think I can make it look good.
I saw some guy on the Bolter & Chainsword forum, his Space Wolf Exterminator had those sponsons and it looked decent.
That sprue is 4£, not that bad... Think I will order one, next time I bitz order and see what I can do. ;D

Me too! You should see my over converted Storme Sgt. Yes please! Show us. I´ve decided to buy stock Leman Russ sponsons from a friend. The Predator ones looks nice, but was a bit tricky to get really good looking, in my opinion... I´m really changing my mind back and forth, but at this moment it will be stock sponsons (with heavy bolters) on all three of my Russes. ;D |

needless to say I'm very careful with it.
