Galatus Dreadnought & New Grav Tank Arrive For The Legio Custodes
January 21, 2017 by brennon
Leading the way for the Legio Custodes this week we have some new releases from Forge World including the mighty looking Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought...
The Contemptor Pattern Dreadnought was always awesome but this takes it to the next level. I love the look of it, almost like a Fantasy creation, brought to life and housing the body of a mighty warrior from the age of the Emperor.
Stronger, faster and deadlier, wearing heavier armour, this is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield and would act as an anchor which your other Space Marines would fight around on the battlefield.
Rules for this particular war machine will be available in The Horus Heresy Book Seven: Inferno which is just around the corner.
Tank Support
Following along from the previous Grav-Tank we saw last year we have another one to support your Legio Custodes forces. The Pallas Grav-Attack is a fast skimmer akin to the more modern Landspeeders used by the Imperium.
Armed with a top of the range twin-linked Arachnus blaze cannon it can take on both infantry and light armour with ease. It almost has the look of one o the cars from Blade Runner now I think about it, but with a decidedly more over the top design!
What do you think?

The dreadnaught is a beast.
Hmm, I’m not particularly keen on either of these. Maybe it’s the colour scheme on the Dreadnought, because I loved the Contemptor pattern dreads. I think I need to look at these on FW…
The dreadnought is sweet, I want to snaffle one for my Dark Angels… the tank though… my problem with that is: The Custodes are body guards. Their job is to protect the Emperor. If the Emperor is hanging around on the battlefield, other guys have brought tanks to the party, like the Astartes or the Imperial Army. Whatever.
Some lovely minis there.
Those two are stunning.
Gorgeous minis, ordered the Contemptor friday.
I hate golden color schemes. The sculpts are great though !
they look brilliant I could see the dreadnought becoming one of the 30K missing Primarch’s?
Those are both pretty badass
