Legion Dreadnoughts require Drop Pods that are even larger than the orbital descent capsules employed by Legiones Astartes infantry, with a sturdier frame and more powerful engine designed to support their formidable machine shell. As a result, these armoured Drop Pods strike with devastating speed, making a dangerously meteoric descent from orbit to deliver their lethal cargo. These traits also allow them to be adapted into so-called Palisade Drop Pods, hosting heavy shield generators that can be deployed anywhere on the battlefield.
This multipart plastic kit builds four epic scale Legiones Astartes Dreadnought Drop Pods or Palisade Drop Pods, heavy-duty atmospheric assault transports for the battlefields of Legions Imperialis. Each Drop Pod features a detailed interior, with three armoured doors that can individually be built closed or opened downwards, becoming ramps for the Dreadnought within. You can even use glueless assembly to open and close them mid-battle! When built as Palisade Drop Pods, this interior is instead occupied by a sophisticated shield generator.
The set includes:
- 4x Dreadnought Drop Pods, which can instead be built as Palisade Drop Pods
- 1x Legions Imperialis Legion Vehicle Transfer Sheet, containing 1130 waterslide transfers
This kit comprises 88 plastic components and a transfer sheet. These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
Rules for using Dreadnought Drop Pods and Legion Palisade Drop Pods in your games of Legions Imperialis can be found in Legions Imperialis: The Great Slaughter, which is available separately.
