Fire Warrior with Burst Cannon
Printer friendly version | Rate this Article | Comment on this Article
Thanks to Anton Shakarikov for this.
It has come to my attention that the Tau carbine, pulse rifle and burst cannon all use the same technology. So I thought to my self it would be nice to have a firewarrior with a burst cannon.
For this conversion you need a fire warrior with no arms, a set of 2 arms, burst cannon, glue and something sharp like a razor. For the right arm you need the one that makes it look like he is aiming the pulse rifle and the left arm should be the stretched out one. Then you take the razor and cut the right arm just below the elbow. You then need to glue the burst cannon to the halved arm. After this is done you need to glue the left arm and bring it down a bit so that it holds it like in the picture. There you have it: A fire warrior with a burst cannon.

| Also, something I forgot to add: Excellent conversion, just trim it down a little.

| a Pulse weapon is a form of plasma and particle weapon it uses a plasma propellant to fire a particle at near c (c= light speed) kind of like the rail gun or rail rifle

| Ick. Waste of points if you play the game. You might as well just keep it on a battle or stealth suit.

| Its too big for the Firewarrior. Maybe convert a smaller one or just be happy with the pulse carbines

| That burst cannon would take 2 fire warriors to hold! it would rip his arm of with all the recoil!

| Looks good, but would the fire warrior be ablt to hold it. Maybe a bit to bulky :)

| i love the ideo but u should just have converted some to bits to make somthing that looks like a burstcannon. the one hes holding looks a little unbalanced.

| Great,except the burst cannon looks a bit big.... in the offical warhammer 40k site there are instructions for a burst cannon converson that shortens it. other than that nice work.

| nice idea and nicely done thouh i just think that burst cannons are more for stealths or tanks/aircraft

| Lol, a cross between mega man with a BFG and a fire warrior, but still, pretty good.

|
| good idea. it would be much more simplwe to use a stelth suit fire warrior with a burst cannon and glue on a fire warrior back pack on

| dont like it im afraid. i have done two fire warriors with burst cannons. its best to either stick it in between the arms like a normal gun with a trigger, or use it to take up the whole arm. the scary thing is i use almost the same paint scheme as you!!!

| Wow. I'd use a shorter Pirhanna burst cannon.

the concept is cool but it would perform poorly on tt as its only 18 inch range and the rest of the squad has 30 inch
still it looks awesome
