Turn Your Tanks into Gladiators With These Alternatives

murmilloTurn your Impulsor tanks into Gladiators, the great alternative upgrade kits that will give you all the weapon options!

With the points drop, the Gladiator is looking better and better! Instead of buying a whole new kit, why not just turn your Impulsor tanks into Gladiator tanks?

This kit comes with all the weapon options and has room for magnetization, which means one kit gives you three variants. The Murmillo also comes with both sponson options, so you can either go more anti-tank or anti-infantry.

It also fits perfectly on the current Impulsor kit, so there is no need for crazy conversions either!

Murmillo Tank Upgrade Kit: $34.99

As you can see, there are tons of options available! You can even grab the four-pack just to get them all. However, the Melta might be the most interesting for Space Marine players out there!

HEAVY MELTER – R2 HATCH TURRETS: $11.99

Impulsor upgrade kits 2These Hatch Turrets are designed to fit into the hatches of a standard troop tank or similar size personal access point. Our customers have found they are a much easier substitute for pintle-mounter weapons.

By replacing these for the standard hatches, you quickly swap your troop carrier weapon load outs by simply “Popping” them in and out as needed. This product gives your model more versatility.
