The new Necron line from GW looks to be adding some tripods into the mix.... Could be of use as some of the alternate types like Scientists and what not.....

I like the first one but it has four legs.

In do like them. The first one could probably be modified to make just one leg in the rear. The only problem is that at GW prices they are going to cost ten times as much as the tripods we have now.

I don't find much to like about them. The Martian hardware in the AQMF storyline is much more austere than these items are. Too many spilky thingies all over them. The AQMF Martian equipment is much more businesslike, probably the result of long development.
Everybody has their preference

My friend got the top one, and it is a snap-fit type model, so very easy to assemble.
I think it will work well as a Harvester/Scientist type tripod.

I will use the new tripods (after removing a leg) as a new generation of tripod, possibly manufactured with the new generation of Martian...

This is the new 2nd gen tripods and their accompanying little friends; "scurriers". The tripod has an 8"/10" move. If it double moves only in the turn it uses the 10" move as the power plant is more efficient plus new tech in weight and leg design. The tripod has the same stats as the veteran tripod. 7 Defense, 12 Armor with armament that includes Extended lens on the heat ray. 40"/15" range (direct/sweep). Also included are green gas launchers on each side but kept it to one launch per fire turn. This bad boy carries a twin set of reaper claws for tearing into buildings if needed. AND to add insult to injury, it carries a 3 element scurrier unit of drones! If it uses a disembark order in its turn and nothing else, these little giblets dismount within 6" of its parent (tripod) using the drone rules. There is one difference from the larger drones. Swarm rule- These little buggers can use the terrain modifiers in an assault when attacked. No other units can use terrain mods in assault but because these are small and numerous, they can hide and attack, in all the appropriate nook and crannies. So for 300 points you get a 1,2,3 punch. As always if you don't care for what has been done here, change it! Respectfully, Gunny
