I couldn't resist any longer. I have been wanting to add a Basilisk to my Imperial Guard army since, well, I bought my first I.G. Codex; but with 2 Leman Russes and a Demolisher already in my motorpool I thought I had enough tanks. However, I DID have a couple of Basilisk crew models sitting around with nothing to do, and a few extra birthday bucks sitting in my wallet, so I figured, what the heck. And besides, can you ever have too many tanks?




Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks



I've had this battlewagon for a while now, but the top platform is relatively new. The main tank portion was converted from a GI Joe "Wolverine"--I basically hacked the top off and stuck bits and pieces all over it. The platform portion was created entirely from 40k parts including an Imperial Guard dozer blade, lengths of sprue, and various vehicle doors and hull parts. The big guns and rokkit launchers are stuck on with magnets for added versatility.

I've been waiting for a long time for new Deffkoptas to be released. This five unit squad is pretty expensive point-wise, but it's a perfect addition to my Kult of Speed army.
