Privateer Press have released a preview of the Skorne Battle Engine... and it's not what you night think of when you think engine!
So it seems the "engine" will be a big beastie with turrets... a "monster tank"!
What do you guys think of it?

What the hell? Big beastie? Yeah. Everything else? WHY.jpg
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT TOWER ON ITS BACK? WHY THE HELL DOES THAT THING HAVE A HUGE TURRET? WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING ON IT’S TAIL? WHY THE HELL DOES SKORNE GET A HUGE GUTS MONSTER AND NOT LEGION OR CIRCLE THE FACTIONS THAT IT WOULD ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE IN? WHY DID I FORGET TO TURN OFF MY CAPS? WHY YOU ASK? DRAMATIC EFFECTSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!1 DAMN IT RIP AND TEAR! RIP AND TEAR YOUR GUTS!
Skorne culture has a distinct lack of machinery, preferring to use beasts of burden for any task they can. They do not have, nor do they desire the technology to build a machine or construct to fight for them. I believer there was a quote somewhere of a skorne mocking humans for using machines when ‘flesh was so much easier to mold’.

yeah its a stompiedon
Troll engine ideas

Not keen of picture but a nice idea
Thats one awesome looking picture right there. And based on that, that thing looks promising enough.
Need to see the sculpt to make a judgment on this one.
Has anyone made a Dinoriders reference yet?
Well it looks totally as if krulos would use it instead of his t-rex ^^
Picture ….FAIL (if you can’t see how the creature works its a big fat fail fro me)
Ideal is good though
