Im a guard man, but if you ask me i would put heavy bolters and the autocannon on mine if i bought a chaos one, I think the autocannon and the bolters looks alot cooler.
But thats just me.

4000p guard army
600p chaos army

i’d go with the twin linked lascannon, heavy bolter sponsons & a storm bolter
it gives you the opportunity to destroy a tank or shoot infantry, the storm bolter gives you an extra 2 shots at closer range or an extra weapon to take a weapon destroyed result so you can continue to shoot with your main weapons
it also costs 140 points so its not too bad

It’s a shame the predator has become a weapons platform in most people’s eyes and not the “predator” it should be stalking the battle field. All I can say is more terrain on the table guys 🙂

What has happened to john?????I thought unboxing was his baby??

those smoke launchers seem to be in an odd place, Darrell. Did you not plan on turning the main gun at all? 😀

what about two guns on a single pannel?

Ice-cube and Xzibit ‘Jacked a tank in xXx 2, then the same tank was used in Transformers, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t a predator…

On the other hand, in the third edition rules for the Last Chancers that were in white dwarf, Grease monkey could steal tanks, so its possible.

It doesn’t fit neonshuffler but you can try to magnetize the sponsons. The predator is a sweet little tank but never will kill as much as an land raider. And still a proper little anti-vehicle tank. I think that I will use mine once again soon (got carried away with termies and landraiders)

I went with all las when I got one years ago, I feel if its got to take down heavy armour or monsters I want as high chance as possible of doing so, but this is just the role it has in my army. I don’t think its pointless to have autocannon and heavy bolters if thats the role you want, you could move and shoot the bolters though and its not too expensive I’d probably go with something else for light infantry trimming. Good unboxing.

Actually, the base predator without upgrades is a decent deal at smaller point battles like 600 points. For imperial guard, a heavy sentinel with 12 front armor and 10 back and side, with an autocannon, costs 60 points (same as the base predator), but with the predator, for the same cost, you get 13 front armor, and 11 side. Now at higher points the lascannons would always be the way to go IMO, but in lower point battles, were autocannons are more useful (IMO, since you are less likely to see heavy armored vehicles) its not bad for the point… Read more »

Again guys, please review these before re-posting them. I didn’t agree with Darrell’s build advice in 5th, and it’s definitely bad for 6th. The Dakka version (i.e. autocannon & side sponson HB’s) is definitely the way to kit out this vehicle in 6th edition.
