Needs more dakka!
I decided I wanted to slightly parody Marneus Calgar's 'Fists of Ultramar' in my design by adding my own heavy weaponry to the already heavy power fists. I went ahead and attached a shortened Warbike Dakkagun to the exterior of his glove and fed the ammo belt into the gauntlet itself.
I'm probably going to put a matching one on the other fist... that, or a flamethrower. The asymmetry of a skorcha is somewhat appealing, but I have honestly never seen fit to give my warbosses a shoota/skorcha. Or anything over a normal slugga, really. I like my close combat monsters.
Still, since I seem to be playing off the Marneus Calgar image, guns are probably best. This is actually kind've nice, though. It means I can run him as a Dreadnought in some games if I wanted to (given his size, I think that's totally fair) and still have my other two HQs (Booma and Wurrzag) in play, while still adhering to force org.
