Guys, brought a Venerable Dread to convert to a BA Lib dread....need a force weapon - any ideas as to what would look cool?

Comp hit for taking one? My other dread in the army is a Furiso (without the blood claws!) - in a pod. Comp hit for two?

I wouldn't have thought two dreads is a comp hit, no. I don't think Lib dreads will be that great with all the anti-tank floating about, but they are very cool.

As far as the force weapon goes, I just bought the grey knights one from Forgeworld as I had to buy the right handed power claw from there anyway. As seen here:


Otherwise I've seen people put a staff in the three-fingers-and-thumb left hand and that's looked pretty good.

Awesome model - how much was it?

I think they work out to be about $10-15 each, not including postage.

+1 for the grey knights blade. That's what I have sitting around for when I eventually build 1. I ended up buying the Red Scorpions dread to use as a libby dread though I'm still not sure why I did that.

Ive seen one with the power weapon from the tau commander farsight attached to the bottom of the arm, looked frickin awesome. I was gonna go down that path...but the forge world grey knight dready arm is way cheaper.
