March 14th 2023: Strikeforce Agastus Conversions

Strikeforce Agastus arrived (+17 to the Golf score, alas!) and I immediately started converting some models. We have a Primaris Devastator - armed with a shoulder-carried missile launcher rather than the rifle ones (also; an old school Horus Heresy one, because those are just cool) - and some kind of variation Heavy Intercessor. Gravis armor and a belt-fed weapon. I need to do something with the underslung weapon - I've left off the six-shooter missile tips for now, because I don't know what to do with them. I like the idea of these guys as a heavily-armored storm unit - rapid-fire weapons, heavy armor, charging into confined spaces and clearing rooms.

I am thinking the underslung weapons could be shotguns or grenade launchers, or maybe a melta-bomb dispenser to breach doors. Or perhaps a shield generator, or even a mounting point for a mantlet. I am also considering changing the left shoulder pads so they are heavier or have some kind of shield generator in them.

Anyway - two test models assembled. Golf score goes up by +17 for the arrival of Agastus, but I immediately turned around and sold the Lieutenant so it is just +16. My current gold score is +11 (not including post boxes or the sale of Ashigaru).
