Land Raider Terminus Project 1

The Terminus Ultra pattern (from the Apocalypse supplemental materials) is a rolling engine of destruction sporting a front-mounted Twin-Linked Lascannon, a pair of Twin-Linked Lascannons from side-sponsons. And a set of single Lascannons also on sponsons.

What you need:
- a Land Raider kit (of course)
- a Terminus upgrade bitz pack from Games Workshop... or if you're willing to spend a bit to save a bit, a Razorback kit and a Predator kit.

What you end up with:
A Terminus Ultra model, a Rhino APC model, and a Razorback model (with the Heavy-Bolter).

Let's look at the Razorback kit. Note the modular nature of Games Workshop kits: this kit's booklet also doubles as a the Rhino booklet. That's because the Razorback is just a Rhino with a turret on top. Meaning the turret costs $5 or so.

The nice thing about this project is that your can build your Razorback anyway. Through the magic of blogging, I will present you with my semi-finished Razorback. Just remember not to glue the turret in place. It'll be handy later.
