Forge World: Legio Custodes Neuheiten
Von Forge World kommen zwei Neuheiten für die Legio Custodes, ein mächtiger Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought und der schwebende Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-Attack.
Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought – 56,00 GBP
Similar in aspect to the Contemptor Dreadnoughts of the Legiones Astartes, the Contemptor-Galatus is a markedly superior war machine. The unrivalled skills of the warrior entombed within its sarcophagus notwithstanding, the Contemptor-Galatus is stronger, faster and better armoured.
Designed to provide an anchor for a Legio Custodes battleline, the Contemptor-Galatus is armed in similar fashion to the Custodes Sentinel Guard – wielding a huge Galatus Warblade with its inbuilt twin-linked infernus incinerator, and equipped with a vastly enlarged version of the Custodes Praesidium shield. Already able to withstand heavy assaults with its armour and refractor field, the Praesidium shield allows the Contemptor-Galatus stand nigh on impregnable, enduring the enemy onslaught and reaping a murderous toll with its immense power blade.
The Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought is a finely detailed model, heavily ornamented with the markings of the Imperium and icons of the Legio Custodes. The kit includes both weapon arms and four alternate feet to allow you to pose the Dreadnought in any number of ways.
Rules for using the Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought in Legio Custodes armies in Horus Heresy games can be found in the forthcoming book The Horus Heresy Book Seven: Inferno.
The Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought is a complete, multi-part resin kit. A 60mm round base is included.
Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-Attack – 60,00 GBP
Designed as a high manoeuvrability hunter-killer, the Pallas Grav-attack is a rapid strike vehicle utilising advanced repulsor-lift technology. Filling a similar battlefield role to the various patterns of Land Speeder and Attack Speeder of the Legiones Astartes, the Pallas has superior agility, improved armour, inbuilt shielding technology, and more powerful weaponry in the form of its twin-linked Arachnus blaze cannon – an expertly engineered weapon that can successfully eliminate both infantry and armoured targets.
The Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-attack is a finely detailed model, featuring intricate engineering details and iconography of the Legio Custodes. It is a fast skimmer with the ability to Deep Strike or Outflank, allowing you to surprise and hunt down your enemy. As a Fast Attack choice in Legio Custodes armies, it can be taken in squadrons of up to three vehicles.
Rules for using the Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-attack in Legio Custodes armies in Horus Heresy games can be found in the forthcoming book The Horus Heresy Book Seven: Inferno.
The Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-attack is a complete, multi-part resin kit. A 105mm oval base and a resin flying base are included.
Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-Attack Squadron – 180,00 GBP
Working in concert in harrying their foe, The Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-attack Squadron use their speed and manoeuvrability to delay or eradicate enemies as required. Filling a similar battlefield role to the various patterns of Land Speeder and Attack Speeder of the Legiones Astartes, the Pallas has superior agility, improved armour, inbuilt shielding technology, and more powerful weaponry in the form of its twin-linked Arachnus blaze cannon – an expertly engineered weapon that can successfully eliminate both infantry and armoured targets.
Not as heavily armoured as the other vehicles of the Legio Custodes, a full Pallas Grav-attack Squadron has the firepower and agility to hound and destroy larger targets whilst avoiding the enemy’s assaults.
The Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-attack Squadron includes three Pallas Grav-attacks. These finely detailed models feature intricate engineering details and iconography of the Legio Custodes.

Legio Custodes Collection – 250,00 GBP
Genetically engineered warriors of unswerving loyalty and unshakable purpose, the Legio Custodes are the bodyguards and sworn protectors of the Emperor. Their might is even greater than the Space Marines of the Legiones Astartes, and surpassed by only the Primarchs themselves.
The Legio Custodes have access to uniquely potent weapons and wargear. From their armour and personal weapons to the vehicles they field in battle, each represents the apex of Imperial technology.
This collection includes: a Legio Custodes Caladius Grav-Tank; a unit of five Custodes which can built as Custodian Guard or Sentinel Guard; a Legio Custodes Pallas Grav-attack; a Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought; and a Legio Custodes Transfer Sheet. It makes the perfect start to any Legio Custodes Army.
Rules for using these units in Legio Custodes armies in Horus Heresy games can be found in the forthcoming book The Horus Heresy Book Seven: Inferno.

Den Custodes Contemptor finde ich schon ziemlich geil. Vor allem diese feinen Details passen gut zu zu der Truppe.
Die Landspeeder Variante der Legio C. gefällt mir aber nicht so, irgendwie könnte das Ding etwas höher fliegen. Und 60 Pfund finde ich persönlich etwas happig für diesen Resin-Klotz, selbst für Forge World Verhältnisse…
Den Contemptor nenne ich mal True Scale Termi.
Die Idee hatte ich auch beim Anblick der Figur… „Endlich mal Space Marines die dem Hintergrund entsprechen…“ im Verhältnis zu 28mm Minis…
Schließlich sollen ja Spacies irgedwas von 2,50-2,80m groß sein, wenn ich mich an die ersten Bücher erinnere, die ich zu meiner 40k-Zeit gelesen habe…
2,30. Wie das ganz früher war weiß ich nicht, aber wer jemanden kennt, der 2,30 groß ist und dementsprechend proportional breit, weiß das das vollkommen ausreicht…
Ja, aber Custodes sind ca. 4 Meter hoch 😉
Weiß das GW?
Wenn ich mir die beiden Bilder in der 2. Reihe ansehe, sind der Custodes und der Marine gleich groß… und ich kenne keine Bilder dieser Custodes/Silent-Sisters-Box, wo die Custodes übermäßig groß gezeigt werden…
Also nee, Space Marines sind mindestens 3 Meter gross 🙂 Wenn nicht gar 4!
Nimmst du das wirklich so ernst? Jeder weis? doch, dass GW den Hintergrund nach belieben ändert. Ganz zu schweigen von den Autoren der BL.
Ich bin seit Jahren mit 40k durch… genau aus dem von dir beschriebenen Grund…
+1
Der Custodes Contemptor gefällt mir gar nicht, weil er einfach nur wie ein großer SM (okay Termie SM) aussieht. Langweilig. Das Cybot-mäßige kommt nicht wirklich rüber.
Hm, der contemptor kommt mit Schwert und Schild? Was ist los? Dachte die bringen ihn wie alle cybots ohne arme und man muss sich die einzeln dazu kaufen. Ich habe ja schließlich shcon andere arme gesehen für ihn, glaube Hellebarde oder so, daher dahcte Body einzeln Waffen separat. Naja auch gut, dann werden die zusatzwaffen dann wohl ätze ich mal, weil man hat ja shcon Waffen dabei, braucht nicht welche extra kaufen.
Mir gefällt er gut, aber werde keine custodesarmee aufbauen. Hab zwar nen Trupp aus der Box, aber dass reicht als Zusatz.
Preise sind echt gesalzen. Ist wohl der Goldaufschlag 😉
Now this is pod racing
Ja, ja, das sind die Vorboten des Brexit!
