I hate you....not really but kinda... my LGS just submitted a formal complaint to Forgeworld that threatened legal action due to the ridiculous delay. heres hoping it lights a fire under their ass.

Oh no I thought of you when I saw it had shipped and was like theres no way I got mine shipped if theres others with orders floating out there. Hopefully you can get yours in your hands soon.
 
Are there any Bat reps using the Dreadsaurian, I cannot find a single one
 
I can't remember a recent one (AoS2) but there have been a few floating around some months ago.
 
Do you have a link to either of those things?

I can link you to the expired Kickstarter. The Dread Saurian equivalent is towards the bottom, number 60.

Or here I guess.

I do not have a link to the illustration in Monstrous Arcanum.
 
Thanks for the visual. I remember looking at that Kickstarter. I thought that creature labeled 60 was a Carnasaur. (Because shorter front legs I guess...)

A Bad rep is not what a dread will get, you have to find a list where he fits in. 420 points are all little bit, especially in 1000-1500 point games. With a Nice LoSaT he can get so much value Out of nowhere and with His Potential to oneshot keYunits he cannot be ignored. I personally havent played my as much often as i would, but when i set him up, He is always feared from the beginning.

Did you mistake ''Bat Rep'' for ''Bad Rep'' ? :D
 
Just thought he meant battle report and your reply kinda seemed like you understood Bad reputation, nothing more :p
 
Ich mean battle report too, dreads are not supposed to get a bad Report!!! They are awesome!!! (When you have one)
 
I see him back in stock again on Forgeworld

I was able to insert the beast in a 1000 points game, alongside a stegadon (and I did), but at 420 it's too costly. Probably it can still be done in an effective way, providing you summon things to swarm the rest of the battlefield…

I read this thread from top to bottom and all the while thinking about whether the wife would react to a £150/$230 hit on my finances. I came so close to buying one it is unreal but can't currently justify it.

In the back of my mind I was just worried about how much game time I'd get out of it too. Wether people would let me actually use the FW model in GW set-up (even though I see nothing wrong with it).
