Default Battlesuit Box Contents?

Are the Broadside and Farsight Battlesuit boxes just a plain-jane Battlesuit sprue set with added parts? Or do they have completely different sprues?

This information is important to economics - I need more missile pods than I will be buying from my standard battlesuit boxes, and I wonder if these can be found with the Broadsides and Farsight. I only need the Dawn Blade for a conversion idea NOT involving a battlesuit, and I want to know if I can still assemble a regular battlesuit out of it.

Thanks!

All Battlesuits (aside from stealthsuits) contain the same sprues, the additional pieces (railguns, dawn blade etc) are metal and are added to the appropriate boxes.

Yup, you can even buy the forgeworld battlesuits and get a compleate set of all the weapons (since the FW suits use a different attachment style), you'll even have extra crisis suit parts that you can use for terrain or bits. The FW broadsides are the only exception that I can think of, their a complete kit on thier own, not using anything from the regular battlesuit sprue, or so I've herd.

It comes with the SMS (They are metal arms). It only comes with the one Plasma Rifle on the regular battlesuit sprue, however.

You could use the SMS off of the broadsides as twin linked missile pods(or reg. missile pods). That could save you some money, and you'd have some TL plasma broadsides to boot!!! Otherwise just get bits off of EBay
