"Khurasan releases Puritan Super Heavy Power Armour" Topic

We are very pleased to release our latest sets of Government forces for our End Times post-apocalyptic range, several sets of Government Forces in Puritan Armour, and a new set of normal power armour command.

All government forces wear power armour in the field, but only a select battalion, the Puritans, wear the dreaded Puritan Superheavy suits, enormous and immensely powerful battle dress far greater in strength and sophistication than the power armour worn by other units. Only the few surviving government troops who are completely untainted by The Event are permitted to wear these valuable suits, and even then only if they are absolutely pure of mind and thinking (that is, fanatics).

Rank-and-file Puritan suits are rigged so they may mount an optional autotargeting rapidcannon on their shoulders, which supplements the close-range weapons built into the arms of the superheavy armour. (Note that the group image above shows the troopers without their rapidcannons attached.)

Puritan officer suits have enhanced comms arrays, and specialists with arm-mounted Toba Guns provide incredible armour-penetrating capability.

At the head of the Government Forces is the President, who always wears a Puritan suit when he takes the field.

For the rank-and-file power-armoured fighting forces of the Government, we have a new pack of command, with weapons variants and an officer wearing a helmet.

All are available now, at the link below:

Forgot to add the comparison image -- next to the normal government power armour. And those of you who've bought that know how big THAT is! Compared to a normal human the Puritan armour looks like an Ogre….

pretty sweet as always

Well, Glory hallelujah!

I like them top of the list!

Looks good, could you show them next to Earth Doom guys?

Thanks,
Lee

These are great. Definitely added to my list for the next order.

Oooohhh that's Fraken awesome, just awesome, I'll be using these to convert to terminator armour.

So is there a socket on the backpack of the rank and file troops? Could I basically pin any weapon I have and attach it?

They look awesome. First on my list after I finish my current 15mm guys.

You just can't stop!

I saw this:

It's going to be the Yayoi for the historical range and the elite Puritan troopers for the post-apoc government forces, and the street thugs with improvised weapons for the zombie apoc range.

And I was all: "right, nice, nothing for me".

And there you go and release yet another awesome range of models! You're doing it on purpose, aren't you?

I knew the Yayoi would tempt you Trojan!

There isn't a socket on the back of the Puritan suit, so you can put the rapidcannon on either shoulder.

I like the models but with the attached "Rapidcannons" they do look a little ridiculous. ;)

Matter of personal opinion of course but as they are separate that's easily sorted.

There isn't a socket on the back of the Puritan suit

So I would have to make a fitting to put something else on it …

you can put the rapidcannon on either shoulder.

… but I could easily have figures with no cannon, one cannon, or two cannons mixed in a unit. Hmmm….

My only issue with the rapid cannons is the same as any huge BFG carried by infantry… Where's the ammo?

Looks like they might carry about 50 rounds each… but then again I guess all they might need it 1 round per target…

I like these – have to get some ordered when I get some more time on my hands later this fall.

Well, you know I'm a sucker for all things Chinese! Or something…

Ordered some already for use as 15mm space marine terminators

nice

Ghostrunner, the Government Forces use almost exclusively energy weapons, so I think the assumption is that the weapon is drawing power from the suit's reactor.

Yes, etotheipi, you could leave them off, or put two on one trooper….

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking. Those guns don't appear to be projectile weapons at all.

These look good, and I'm glad there's more Power Armor figures available!

Nice!

Now to wait until the end of the month!

and I just placed an order!!!!!!

These are really great KM… I'll be getting a squad for sure!

Nice minis, indeed. To solve the autocannon problem put a small magnet on the shoulder and on the mount of the weapon, and … voila'! Ready to go!

Pretty cool!

Any chance for the rapidcannons to be available separately?

I'm slowly chasing down suppliers to make Tagon's Toughs in 15mm, and the heavy armor Toughs have "pal-drone" guns on each shoulder (Best seen in the zombie nanoplague series), and those pal-drones can operate separately from the suit.

I guess I could make do with 4 squads, one with pal-drones deployed, one with pal-drones active on the shoulders, and two squads without pal-drones at all, but I'd really rather have 2 guns per trooper.

Sweet scuplts, Khurasan! Nicely done!

At last !!
Great new PA !
I am seriously considering those Falloutish PA as PA for one of my factions..

But those bad ass giants are very cool !

Any chance for Felid PA on the horizon or I should consider getting those 10 barons and cutting them ??

Just ordered my first three packs of these, just to get the ball rolling… need at least a company by the time I'm done…

Now, where did I put those spare jump packs?

IMO, if they had Y-racks, they'd be perfect for Heinlein's Mobile Infantry.
Needless to say, my order has been placed.

Kudos once again Jon.
Indeed Gunnar ,They'd make great 15mm Terminators ……

Wow, I have Power Armours for my CMG Naga force. Excellent!

IMO, if they had Y-racks, they'd be perfect for Heinlein's Mobile Infantry.
Needless to say, my order has been placed.

Great (evil) minds think alike…

Oh i have been wanting a blockly heavy fire power looking armor for ever and Khurasan has come through again . Order placed and man can't wait. I can see these painted white with either red or blue markings ready to go in and purify a lab where all the scientists are fleeing from the strange creatures seem to appear after jimming was brought in with the spider thing on is face…..:)

I hope your stock lasts untim my game budget fills back up – Oy! Khurasan is clearly leading the way with their 15mm lines at the moment.

--M

Absolutely spot on for Heinlein's MI. I'll be having a full platoon come payday.

Now, for suitable Arachnid forces…

The postman just dropped off my platoon and I must say that these minis are brilliant!
I'll be using mine as power armour for AA's Commonwealth Brits.

Another very happy customer calling in to recommend these and yes these will be wandering lonely dark corridors on the lookout for space demons :-). Brilliant figures again from Khurusan

Very pleased that you like them, cheers for that!

I received my first batch of three sets of the basic infantry poses last week, and I have since assembled them including adding jump packs, and a coat of black primer. I may retrofit Y-racks later once I find a suitable proxy either through kitbashing or some other source…

If all goes well, tonight I will begin painting them…

These are outstanding figures everyone, really the best 15mm powered armour figures I've seen in a very long time, having a very powerful Starship Troopers the novel vibe to their bulk and design aesthetics. Brilliant and highly recommended!

got mine yesterday and the castings are perfect!!! plus they are scary looking which is always nice. :)

I have both the troopers and the Puritan guys, they are all awesome and make great "space marines" They required very little clean up and painted up quickly and easily.
