Shaltari Tarantula/birdeater Battlewalkers

Description

The Battlestrider is a ubiquitous chassis in a Shaltari army, particularly if you like your units to be able to take a bit of punishment. With Armour 13 and 2 Damage Points, this is one walker that won't quit - and that's if you get through its standard Shaltari 5+ Passive save. Battlestriders also have the unique ability to climb scenery pieces, getting to the top of a structure with no problem, able to make the best use of great firing lines. A Tarantula is a Standard choice in a Shaltari army, so you can take loads of them! Its Gravity Cannon is Energy 11 and has Devastator-2 against Tanks and Walkers, which already makes it a very useful weapon. However, the the bigger the target, the more gravity there is on it (it's science), so anything with the Large special rule gets hit with Devastator-3 instead! Meanwhile the Birdeater variant swaps its main armament for the classic Twin Ion Cannons. Equally as good at anti-air firepower as its Kukri cousin, the Birdeater provides an extremely stable chassis for your AA squad. These walkers will be particular thorns in the side of your opponents! Contains 2 resin miniatures with a choice to make 2 Tarantulas or 2 Birdeaters. These miniatures are highly detailed, approximately 50mm in length. Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled.
