Rapier Graviton Cannon

June 2013·p. 36

THE SHORT VERSION

The tracked Rapier carries a heavy weapon that crushes targets through intense gravity. A gun shield, optical lenses and unusual generators communicate its arcane technology. Two crew accompany the carriage, including one mounted aboard it. Adam presents the model as a distinctive alternative within the growing Rapier family.

Eldar Wraithknight

The Wraithknight combines immense scale with the curved lines of smaller Eldar constructs. Its living pilot shares the machine with the spirit of a dead twin, giving the armour a tragic identity. Wraithcannons, a suncannon and a ghostglaive offer very different main armaments. Articulated joints and optional locating pins allow collectors to choose between straightforward assembly and more ambitious poses.

Hemlock Wraithfighter

A Spiritseer pilots the Hemlock while distortion weapons and a mindshock pod attack its victims in unsettling ways. The double-delta wings preserve a sleek silhouette despite the unusual armament. Dorsal fins and notched shapes connect the aircraft to seers and ghost warriors. Adam highlights those visual links as well as the craft’s role as a terror weapon.

Crimson Hunter

The Crimson Hunter treats aerial combat as an Aspect Warrior discipline. Its Nightshade Interceptor shares the Hemlock’s foundation but adds wings and a more predatory profile. Bright lances and a pulse laser establish its fighter role, with starcannons offered for an Exarch. A distinct pilot helmet carries the Aspect identity into the cockpit.
