Even with my bias towards the Chaos Dwarfs, I'm inclined to agree. On the plus side, from what I've seen, they look great in-game.

yeah, with the particle facts it's fine, but without it's a weird sausage body.
 
curious where they'll take the whole train thing, given that they've actually implemented some of it now with toweable units.

I think it is just the Dreadquake Mortar that can be towed. You think they might add more in the future?

I wouldn't be surprised if there's some added variants to tow in future DLC. Or maybe a train that can tow 2 mortars or something.

Though I'm not expecting a 20 unit train, that'd probably be horrificly OP.

On the tabletop you used to be able to tow one carriage with no penalty to movement or two carriages with a 50% reduction in base movement. Carriages could be any combination of Magma Cannons, Deathshrieker Rocket Launchers or Dreadquake Mortars.

That said, you never saw anyone do it, because it made no sense tactically because the war machines could not fire in any turn where the Iron Daemon moved... and you had to invest points to mount it to the Iron Daemon in the first place.

Based on the physical design/sculpt of the models, I don't think we'll see anything other than the Dreadquake Mortar being towed. The Dreadquake's mortar swivels, so it can be animated to shoot in any direction. The Deathshrieker and Magma cannon are front facing only, and their attachment points are on the back, so they'd be facing in the opposite direction of the Iron Daemon.
