LEGIO CUSTODES CALADIUS GRAV-TANK & CUSTODIAN GUARD £120
The Legio Custodes are the bodyguards and sworn protectors of the Emperor, and his chosen emissaries. Genetically engineered warriors of unswerving loyalty and unshakable purpose, their might is even greater than the Space Marines of the Legiones Astartes and surpassed by only the Primarchs themselves.
The Legio Custodes have access to uniquely potent weapons and wargear. From their armour and personal weapons to the vehicles they field in battle, each represents the apex of Imperial technology.
This set includes a Legio Custodes Caladius Grav-Tank – a technologically advanced armoured unit carrying potent weaponry – and a unit of five Custodes which can built as Custodian Guard or Sentinel Guard. The Legio Custodes Squad includes several wargear and weapon options; 5 guardian spears; 5 sentinel blades; 5 storm shields; 6 ceremonial daggers; a Custodes vexilla; as well as 5 helmeted and 2 bare heads.
Rules for using these units in Legio Custodes armies in Horus Heresy games can be downloaded from the rules tab on this page.
The Legio Custodes Caladius Grav-Tank is a complete, multi-part resin kit. The Legio Custodes Squad is a complete, multi-part plastic kit that builds five models and includes five 40mm round bases.
LEGIO CUSTODES CALADIUS GRAV-TANK £85
Often deployed in situations requiring the heaviest of weapons the Legio Custodes could bring to bear, the Caladius pattern Grav-Tank. Utilising technologies and systems derived not only from the Dark Age of Technology, but from developments made as a result of the Great Crusade’s two centuries of warfare, the Caladius was well-protected and highly maneuverable, perhaps the most powerful battle line armoured unit of its size in the Imperium’s forces.
The principal armament of the Caladius is the double-barreled Iliastus accelerator cannon, an advanced weapon which was to become the precursor to the main weapon of the Legiones Astartes Sicaran Battle Tank. The Grav-Tank is also armed with a twin-linked Lastrum bolt cannon, exemplars of bolt-weapon technology whose bolt shells are customized mass-reactive heliothermic warheads, hand crafted by the artisan weapon smiths of the Lastrum Core Clan on Terra.

DEATH GUARD DEATHSHROUD POWER SCYTHES £12
Weapons uniquely styled for the Death Guard Legion, Deathshroud Power Scythes are far deadlier than their ancient forebears. Their unique design enables the wielder to attack with a reaping blow that slices through armour and flesh alike. Often carried by Deathshroud Terminator units, Power Scythes were also wielded by the Commanders and Sergeants of the Legion.
This set includes five Deathshroud Power Scythes for Death Guard Legion Characters. There are three scythes wielded in two hands and one wielded one handed for Space Marines in power armour, and single scythe in a one handed grip for a Space Marine in Terminator armour. Also included are the arms needed for the two handed scythes, a left power armoured arm with open hand, and on open right hand for Terminator armour.

EMPEROR’S CHILDREN PHOENIX POWER SPEARS £12
Patterned in imitation of the deadly and arcane power halberds wielded by the Legio Custodes, these elegant power blades are hugely lethal weapons in their own right. As well as the lightning-swift Phoenix Terminators, Phoenix power spears were a the weapon of choice among the most experienced Sergeants and Commanders in the Legion.
