    I can't remember a recent one (AoS2) but there have been a few floating around some months ago.

    I can link you to the expired Kickstarter. The Dread Saurian equivalent is towards the bottom, number 60.

    Or here I guess.

    I do not have a link to the illustration in Monstrous Arcanum.

    Thanks for the visual. I remember looking at that Kickstarter. I thought that creature labeled 60 was a Carnasaur. (Because shorter front legs I guess...)

    A Bad rep is not what a dread will get, you have to find a list where he fits in. 420 points are all little bit, especially in 1000-1500 point games. With a Nice LoSaT he can get so much value Out of nowhere and with His Potential to oneshot keYunits he cannot be ignored. I personally havent played my as much often as i would, but when i set him up, He is always feared from the beginning.

    I was able to insert the beast in a 1000 points game, alongside a stegadon (and I did), but at 420 it's too costly. Probably it can still be done in an effective way, providing you summon things to swarm the rest of the battlefield…

    Dread 420
    10 skinks 60
    10 knights 180
    2 razordons 80

    or

    Astrlith 160
    Dread 420
    10 skinks 60

    I read this thread from top to bottom and all the while thinking about whether the wife would react to a £150/$230 hit on my finances. I came so close to buying one it is unreal but can't currently justify it.

    In the back of my mind I was just worried about how much game time I'd get out of it too. Wether people would let me actually use the FW model in GW set-up (even though I see nothing wrong with it).
