Reinforcements have arrived! Come see what Forge World rolled out for the venerable Astartes!
DEIMOS VINDICATOR LASER DESTROYER £49.50
Tearing through the armour plating of enemy vehicles, the Vindicator laser destroyer array is a potent weapon of destruction. First retrofitted into the heavily armoured Deimos pattern Vindicator chassis during the dark days of the Horus Heresy, several Legions took to fielding this variant as a mainline battle tank, proving itself on many occasions as an able tank hunter. After millennia of brutal warfare across the galaxy, it is still in favour within the Space Marine Chapters, the Vindicator Laser Destructor continuing to bring retribution to the enemies of Mankind.
The Deimos Vindicator Laser Destroyer may be fielded in Space Marine Legion armies in Horus Heresy games and also in Space Marine armies in standard games of Warhammer 40,000. Its updated rules can be found HERE.
DEREDEO DREADNOUGHT HELLFIRE PLASMA CANNONADE £18.00
A development of existing plasma-based weapons technology, the Hellfire Plasma Cannonade was one of a number of weapons first tested using the Deredeo pattern chassis. It sacrifices the range of the Deredeo’s standard armaments for increased armour penetration and allows for a higher rate of fire than many other plasma weapons.
Experimental rules using the Deredeo Pattern Dreadnought in games of Warhammer 40,000 and the Horus Heresy can be found here.
Raven Guard Stuff: (helmets, torsos, upgrade sets…)
Who doesn’t love a large blast plasma cannon? Also, if you covered that Deredeo’s pilot helmet area with a glass canopy and put it in a battletech table it would bled in perfectly. Just saying!
~Have at it!
