FW: Custodian Gyrfalcon Jetbike Teaser
The Warhammer Community Team is showcasing the new Custodian Gyrfalcon Jetbike from Forge World – Behold it in majestic resin!
The elite member of the Legio Custodes get all the fun toys. The new Gyrfaclon Jetbike is zooming ahead from Forge World and will be available soon.
“Today’s glimpse into the future of Forge World’s releases shows us the Gyrfalcon Jetbike. These are the fast-moving and hard hitting cavalry of the elite Legio Custodes. Like their Space Marine equivalents, they are fast and mount some fearsome ranged punch – in this case, with Iliastus pattern bolt cannons. Like all Legio Custodes, though, these guys are also very capable in close combat, and units of these bikes can ride down all but the toughest infantry, routing enemy formations and causing no end of problems for your foe.”
The Custodians are already monsters in Close Combat so putting them on a bike and giving them a “charging lance” type of weapon seems like it’s going to sting a little… I would not want to have a unit on the receiving end of that charge. It looks like a very impressive resin sculpt and I would think that it would be a great addition to a Custodian Force.
