Scatter Gun

The **scatter gun** was a low-velocity slugthrower that fired a spray of solid pellets when fired. It could often hit multiple targets or eliminate one target with a single blast. However, its damage decreased as range to the target increased, since the pellets scattered if fired from too far away; this made the weapon more suited for close-quarters combat.
Space Marines

The **Space Marines** or **Adeptus Astartes** are foremost amongst the defenders of Humanity, the greatest of the Emperor of Mankind's warriors. They are barely Human at all, but superhuman; having been made superior in all respects to a normal man by a harsh regime of genetic modification, psycho-conditioning and rigorous training.
Psychic Hood

The **Psychic Hood** is used by Space Marine Librarians to protect themselves from enemy psychic powers.

## Overview

Often distinguished by a metal hood that rises from the backplate of their Power Armour, it uses a set of interwoven intricately aligned crystals to nullify an opponents psychic attacks, however they are of a very arcane design and are likely not to have been produced perfectly and so are not one hundred percent effective.
The Republic Strikes Back

## Plot

The people of Axum are resistant, and their Planetary defenses, either crushed during the Blue Massacre, or sabotaged by their own officials, have yet to come online. Despite this, Captain Yorrin and the commanders left behind to facilitates the planet's gradual inclusion into the Imperium are certain that they have more than enough forces to deal with a counter invasion from the "softies" of the Republic. The Adeptus Astertes did their part, and now it was time for the Navy and the Guard to do theirs.

Yet even the normally inexhaustible might of the Emperor's Hammer and his thundering weapons of war may unprepared for the army of psyker knights which now approach, vengeance burning darkly in the breast of not all, but most. Now is the time for the might of the Republic to show itself...even if it must circumvent the senate to do it! Today the Republic does not suffer another blow. Today, the Republic Strikes Back!
R2-D2

**R2-D2**, pronounced **Artoo-Detoo** and often referred to as **R2 (Artoo)**, was an R2-series astromech droid manufactured by Industrial Automaton with masculine programming. A smart, spunky droid who would serve a multitude of masters over his lifetime, R2-D2 was never given a full memory wipe nor did he ever receive new programming, with these factors resulting in an adventurous and independent attitude. Often finding himself in pivotal moments in galactic history, his bravery and ingenuity saved the galaxy on numerous occasions.
Tarantula Sentry Gun

The **Tarantula Sentry Gun**, sometimes simply referred to as a **Sentry Gun**, is an automated mobile weapons system used by the Astra Militarum, various Planetary Defence Forces, the Adeptus Arbites, and the Adeptus Astartes. The exact origins of the Tarantula's nickname is unknown. The Tarantula Sentry Gun is operated by a Machine Spirit (artificial intelligence)-controlled logic engine capable of operating entirely without Human input.
Space Marine Landing Craft

The **Space Marine Landing Craft** is a super-heavy landing craft that is used by the Space Marines of the Adeptus Astartes.

## Overview

This massive voidcraft is designed to quickly deliver troops, vehicles and supplies to a planet's surface from orbit, much like its smaller cousins the Thunderhawk gunship and the Thunderhawk Transporter.

The main difference between these craft, however, is that the lander can carry entire detachments of Space Marines and their supporting vehicles, more than twice the complement of the Thunderhawk.
Scorpenek Annihilator Droid

The **Scorpenek annihilator droid** was a droid constructed by the Colicoid Creation Nest.

## Characteristics

In essence a much larger version of the Colicoids' droideka, the annihilator droid was armed with two dual rapid-fire laser cannons cocked back in the menacing form of a rampant scorpion. It could target with either a crimson photoreceptor, or with a composite radiation sensor. It also carried a combination particle-energy shield, similar to the shield produced by the annihilator's smaller cousin. Because of this extra shield, droidekas would position themselves inside the annihilator's shield for more protection. With fewer than one hundred annihilators on Colla IV, the Colicoids placed them around strategic or political resources. However, their eye was a large weakpoint and could be easily taken down by the slightest touch to the center of the eye.
Rho-class Transport Shuttle

The ***Rho*-class transport shuttle**, also known as the **Republic medical shuttle**, was a class of shuttle used by the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars. Used primarily for transportation purposes by the Galactic Republic, the *Rho*-class served as both cargo and medical shuttles.

## Description

The *Rho*-class transport shuttle was visually extremely similar to the *Nu*-class attack/transport shuttle, with key differences being a dorsal wing, an elongated hull, and the ability to attach and carry cargo pods for passengers, supplies or mobile barracks to the underside of the ventral hull. The shuttle class was equipped with a hyperdrive, engine units, six laser cannons, and magnetic clamps. Flown by two pilots, the starships could carry multiple passengers. Its primary roles were as a medical or general-purpose transport, and it was also known as a Republic medical shuttle.

Among the standard red and yellow markings of both the *Rho*-class and *Nu*-class shuttles, those used by the Republic Medic Corps featured orange and blue markings. Some *Rho*-class shuttles, such as one used after the Siege of Mandalore, had light grey and red markings in a pattern similar to the livery of a *Venator*-class Star Destroyer.
Universe-class Mass Conveyor

The **Universe Class Mass Conveyor** is a class of Imperial Transport ship of the Imperial Fleet, used mostly by the Merchant Fleets or Rogue Traders for mass-trade, and the Imperial Navy to transport large numbers of Imperial Guard to the front. They are amongst the largest class of starship produced in the Imperium, measuring nearly twelve kilometres long and capable of holding up to 500,000 passengers.

## Overview

Constructing these massive ships is an immense undertaking, taking significant time and resources and thus they can only be constructed above the richest Imperial worlds. Universe Mass Conveyors are almost self-contained worlds, where entire spaceborne communities live out their lives, uncaring as to the vessel's destination or its owners' identities.
Dozer Blade

A **Dozer Blade** is a type of wargear commonly found on many vehicles of the Imperium of Man and those used by the Forces of Chaos, specifically the Chaos Space Marines and the Lost and the Damned. Dozer Blades come in many different shapes and sizes, such as heavy ploughs, blades, rams, or scoops. These blades are attached to the front of a vehicle and are used to clear obstacles from the vehicle's path and provide an additional layer of protection from enemy fire.
Reciprocating Quad Blaster

The **reciprocating quad blaster**, often shortened to "**Cip-Quad**," was an experimental weapon developed during the Clone Wars by Merr-Sonn Munitions.

## Description

The reciprocating quad blaster drew power from a power cell strapped to a soldier's back and was mounted on a specialized harness featuring microrepulsorlifts. The four barrels could be fired either one or two at a time depending on the rotation pattern selected, and were cooled on the recoil by coolant tanks located within the rig itself.

ARC heavy gunners using the weapon were outfitted with specialized armor that included head-up displays in the helmet and links to the harness that allowed them to make the best use of the weapon. The weapon was best used against the slower vehicles of the Separatist army, such as the Corporate Alliance NR-N99 tank droid and the Trade Federation Armored Assault Tank, as infantry was often able to outmaneuver the weapon.
Tech

"**Tech**" was the nickname of a clone commando who served in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars as a member of Clone Force 99. Due to his genetic mutations, he appeared leaner, fairer, and younger than his fellow clone troopers.

Tech served as the brains of his squad and was a valued asset in this regard, using his high intellect and mastery of technology to ensure their operations were successful. Even so, he was no less skilled in combat than the other three members.
Power Armor

**Power armour** is an advanced form of powered combat armour, worn primarily by the Space Marines and the Chaos Space Marines, though suits have been created to be worn by mere mortals. It is a completely enclosed suit of combat armour composed of shaped adamantium and plasteel plates, encased in a ceramite ablative layer.

## Overview

Each suit possesses a full suite of life-support functions for operation in hostile environments, an automated *medicae* system to provide some level of first aid to a wounded wearer and a highly advanced and fully integrated tactical targeting and threat analysis system known as "auto-senses."

The suit would be heavy and cumbersome to wear but for the electrically-motivated fibre bundles within the armour that replicates the wearer's movement and enhances their strength beyond its already considerable superhuman baseline (for Space Marines).
Vindicare Temple

The **Vindicare Temple** is one of the temples of the Officio Assassinorum. The motto of the temple in High Gothic is *Exitus Acta Probat*, "the Outcome Justifies the Deed."

Vindicare operatives are the most skilled snipers and marksmen in the Imperium of Man and are usually directed to assassinate targets who are believed to have been possessed by daemonic entities or to have been corrupted by the Ruinous Powers of Chaos.
Vortex Grenade

The **Vortex Grenade** is an extremely rare and advanced type of specialised grenade used by a few, select individuals in the universe. The grenade opens a "hole" to the Warp in realspace, which destroys any troops caught in its area of effect.

## Overview

The Vortex Grenade is also an unpredictable weapon because it not only destroys anything that it comes into contact with, but also that the Warp vortex it creates drifts randomly after activation, slaying friend and foe alike.

Vortex Grenades, as a result of the ancient arcane technology used in them, are very difficult to produce, as might be imagined. Only the most specialised and advanced Adeptus Mechanicus Forge Worlds still retain the technical knowledge required to manufacture them.

As a result, these unpredictable weapons are only made available to the most high-ranking of Imperial servants, such as the senior officers of Space Marine Chapters, agents of the Officio Assassinorum and Inquisitors.
Vulcan Mega Bolter

A **Vulcan Mega Bolter** is an immense, hydraulically-driven, five-barrelled, air-cooled, electrically-fired rotary Bolt Weapon.

## Overview

The Vulcan Mega Bolter is one of the most potent and effective anti-infantry weapons available to the Imperium, and easily carves through swathes of Heretics or xenos with mass-reactive shells larger than human skulls firing two at a time, leaving a heavy carbonised reek in the air.

So large and powerful is the weapon that it must be mounted onto the massive arms of an Imperial Titan, or on the hull or turret of a Stormlord super-heavy tank -- little else could handle the ground-shaking recoil or bear the weight. This weapon is comprised of massive, dual, heavy-calibre, rotating Bolters with multiple barrels. Its staggering rate of fire makes it an ideal weapon for use against infantry, light vehicles and even small structures.
Siege Shield

**Siege Shields** are large armored shields mounted on the front of Imperial siege vehicles.

## Overview

In addition to helping protect against incoming fire, these large dozer blades allow vehicles to push aside debris and rubble without putting the vehicle at risk. Perhaps the most notable Imperial vehicle equipped with siege shields is the Space Marine Vindicator.
Tempestus Scions

**Tempestus Scions** (sing. **Tempestus Scion**) (pronounced "Tem-PEST-ess cy-ONS"), or as they are known in Low Gothic, **Storm Troopers**, are the elite special forces units of the Astra Militarum and the Inquisition, but officially belong to a subdivision of the Adeptus Administratum known as the Militarum Tempestus.

## Overview

Trained from their youth by the Schola Progenium in the arts of war, Storm Troopers are, perhaps, the finest soldiers ever to serve in the Imperial Guard.

Armed with their trademark Hot-shot Lasguns and Hellpistols, these soldiers take combat to the heart of the enemy with blinding speed and deadly precision. Their accuracy is aided by their highly-protective Carapace Armour's integrated and distinctive Omnishield Helm targeting system.

Equipped with the finest weapons and wargear in the Departmento Munitorum's arsenal, Tempestus Scions are trained to carry out missions beyond the capabilities of the rank-and-file Guardsman.

Deep strike assaults, reconnaissance, infiltration, sabotage, and airborne or orbital insertion are just a few of the special operations missions with which Tempestus Scions and their equivalents in the Astra Militarum are regularly tasked.

They are the very best that the Imperial Guard has to offer, each man a perfect specimen of health and moral purity, forged by experience and training, not into a simple soldier, but into a one-man assault squad.
Thermal Shield

A **thermal shield** was a more powerful version of the more common deflector shield. Like the deflector shield, Thermal shields could deflect laser and projectile fire and could withstand a direct hit from a volley of torpedoes. However, this absorbed at least half of the shield's power. Torpedoes could not be fired while thermal shields were up, as they would not be able to pass through the shield barrier. Once down, the shields could not be raised again until fully recharged.
Punisher Gatling Cannon

The **Punisher Gatling Cannon** is a large, multi-barrelled, rotary ballistic weapon, and is known as one of the fastest-firing slug throwers in the Imperium's arsenal. The Punisher can shred even the heaviest of infantry units with punitive ease.

## Overview

The Punisher Gatling Cannon is the primary armament of the Leman Russ Punisher main battle tank and one of the variants of the Aeronautica Imperialis' Vulture gunship. A relatively recent edition to the armoury of the Astra Militarum, the Punisher Gatling Cannon unleashes a torrent of anti-infantry firepower and is among the fastest-firing weapons in the Imperial arsenal.
Skyshield Landing Pad

**Skyshield Landing Pads** are a type of Imperial fortification. They are used to protect aircraft as they unload supplies or evacuate troops to or from the front lines. The Skyshield Landing Pad used by the Imperial Navy was originally purpose-built to accommodate Valkyrie and Vendetta gunships. However, it has proven robust enough to serve the larger Stormravens and Thunderhawks used by the Adeptus Astartes. With its armoured sides unfurled, Skyshields activate a series of locator beacons that guide incoming aircraft as they make their final approach. Once the craft touches down, the Skyshield’s armour plating transforms into a protective configuration and force field generators shimmer to life, protecting the vulnerable gunship from incoming fire as it refuels, rearms or deploys its passengers.
Qvo-84

A "false Magos" of the Adeptus Mechanicus in service to the Archmagos Dominus of Mars and arguably the greatest human master of science and technology since the Emperor of Mankind himself, Belisarius Cawl, Qvo-84 is the eighty-fourth in a series of clones of Cawl's best friend during the Horus Heresy that serve as his master's research assistants. Sent to the Xek-Tek sector for an as-of-yet unknown reason, Qvo-84 is caught up in the events that lead to the Imperium arriving in the Star Wars galaxy and is captured by a rogue Magos in service to an Inquisitor. He takes advantage of the Republic's counterattack on Axum to escape his prison and runs into the Bad Batch, where he agrees to help them with their mission in exchange for helping him rendezvous with like-minded Tech-Priests who were already planning his rescue.
Vindicare Assassin

The **Vindicare Assassins** specialise in vengeance and revenge killings. They make use of a specially designed, long-range Sniper Rifle called the Exitus Rifle. The Vindicare Assassin brings inglorious death to the Emperor's enemies with a sniper's bullet. Vindicare Assassins have been known to wait in a position for as long as 6 years before taking a shot. Many rebellions and cults have been ended with one, perfect shot from a Vindicare's rifle.

## Overview

The Vindicare Temple teaches the assassin the art of patience and the perfection of marksmanship. These stoic assassins are conditioned by their temple to be unflinchingly loyal to the Imperium, often being trained to limit their vocabulary only to words that are useful for their profession, cutting off all emotional attachments to other humans so that they will never hesitate to eliminate any target. The intense training of a Vindicare Assassin enables them to pick out a single target even amongst roving hordes of enemies on the battlefield.

## Equipment

The Exitus Rifle of a Vindicare Assassin is his primary weapon, and is chambered to fire a variety of specialised ammunition types, therefore he is equipped to take out targets ranging from well-shielded individuals to monstrous beasts or vehicles. He is also issued with an Exitus Pistol, which fires a shot more powerful than most personal firearms used in the Imperium, providing him with a valuable short-ranged weapon for situations where a sniper's rifle would not do.

Vindicare Assassins wear a Spy Mask, which is able to scan on a wide spectrum to pick out heat and energy sources over long distances. The mask also allows the Assassin to monitor the enemy's communication channels, and comes equipped with concentrated food and water cartridges for extended operations. They also wear a specially designed **Stealth Suit**, which combines normal synskin with chameleon chemicals to hide their forms in their surroundings.
Tactical Droid

The **T-series military strategic analysis and tactics droid**, also known as the **T-series tactical droid**, the **standard tactical droid**, or the **T-1** and initially designated the **CDE-T**, was a model of tactical droid manufactured by Baktoid Combat Automata. Used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, T-1s aided in the coordination of their military, acting as advisors and often generals for their superior officers.
Salamander Vehicle

The **Salamander**, also known as a **Salamander Scout**, is a small, armoured reconnaissance vehicle used by the Astra Militarum and based on the Chimera chassis. It is designed primarily for reconnaissance duties and is lightly armed and armoured but moves very rapidly.

The Salamander is also used as a lightweight and fast moving command vehicle, as its open-topped design allows an Imperial commander to better coordinate his units.
Stormlord

The **Stormlord** is a super-heavy main battle tank and variant of the Shadowsword tank-hunter and Titan-killer tank used by the forces of the Astra Militarum. The Stormlord replaces the Volcano Cannon of the Shadowsword with a Vulcan Mega Bolter. By removing the large capacitors and generators required for the Volcano Cannon to operate, extra space has been opened up near the rear of the vehicle which allows the Stormlord to carry up to 40 infantrymen as an open-topped armoured transport.

## Overview

The Stormlord excels in the exact opposite role of the Shadowsword. As an infantry support vehicle rather than a tank-hunter, its armament allows it to easily rip through infantry and light vehicles. Like every sanctioned Imperial variant of the Shadowsword and Baneblade, the Adeptus Mechanicus Forge World that manufactured each Stormlord records each tank's service number and tracks all of its accomplishments in the Emperor's service as each Stormlord is considered to be a divine servant of the Machine God.

No vehicle in the armouries of the Astra Militarum boasts a greater transport capacity than the Stormlord, and none is more capable of mowing through massed ranks of enemy infantry. The Stormlord is the ultimate assault vehicle, capable of transporting almost an entire platoon single-handedly. On the approach, these troops can level waves of fire at the enemy, softening the opposing lines before disembarking and charging into the fray.

However, the embarked troops are often left with no foe to assault, as the Stormlord itself can wipe all but the most heavily armoured targets off the battlefield. Its front-facing Vulcan Mega Bolter sends sheets of mass-reactive rounds hurtling towards the enemy lines, reducing whole squads of infantry to clouds of vaporised blood.
Redemptor Dreadnought

The **Redemptor Dreadnought** is a new pattern of Adeptus Astartes Dreadnought specifically created to serve alongside the Primaris Space Marines. It, like the standard Firstborn pattern Castraferrum Dreadnought, is intended to provide mortally wounded Primaris Marines with another chance to continue to serve the Emperor, though it is the largest Dreadnought pattern ever deployed by the Space Marines.
Praetor

The **Praetor**, also known as the **Praetor Armoured Assault Launcher**, is an armoured assault missile launcher used by the Astra Militarum for direct infantry fire support. The Praetor is a modified variant of the Crassus Armoured Assault Transport, and is named after the unique weapon it mounts known as the Praetor Heavy Assault Launcher.
Sheathipede-class Transport Shuttle

The ***Sheathipede*-class transport shuttle**, also known as the ***Sheathipede*-class shuttles** and as the **Neimoidian escort shuttle**, was a short-range transport used by the Trade Federation and the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

## Characteristics

A product of Haor Chall Engineering Corporation, the *Sheathipede*-class was a transport shuttle with a curved hull and pincer-like landing gears, which lowered from the ship's rounded belly, and the shuttle's shape roughly resembled the Neimoidian soldier beetle. At a length of 14.4 meters, the shuttle was powered by two engines and featured an egress hatchway at the rear. Some models replaced the cockpit with an expanded passenger cabin, and were flown by automatic pilots.

Stock Sheathipede shuttles were unarmed and only possessed a basic shield generator, meaning that, rather than relying on strength, the ships relied on speed and a small sensor cross-section to get to a destination. Many of the shuttles used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems were upgraded with improved shielding, better armor, and larger engines. While uncommon, a decent number had light weapons added, typically in the form a trio of laser cannons. These armed Sheathipedes were used to move very valuable materiel through hostile locations and transport high-ranking officers and officials.
Sniper Rifle

A **Sniper Rifle** is a high-powered and highly accurate projectile or directed energy weapon that is used to attack distant foes and lightly armoured targets at extreme ranges with unerring accuracy. Capable of firing powerful shots with lethal precision, sniper rifles can fell even the sturdiest enemy.

Small sniper teams or even lone snipers can stop advancing troops in their tracks, holding them up for hours while other military assets are called up to deal with them. Sniper Rifles are commonly used by Imperial forces such as Space Marine Scouts who utilise these deadly weapon on missions where disruption of enemy forces is paramount.
Shekelesh-class Freight Gunship

The ***Shekelesh*-class freight gunship**, also known as the **Moogan smuggler ship** or **Moogan cargo ship**, was a model of freighter and gunship manufactured by the Techno Union. The freighter was used by a ring of Moogan and Gotal smugglers from Mooga operating on the planet Mandalore.

## Characteristics and Description

The shape of the gunship was tall and curved and its landing gear comprised of six insect-like segmented legs, similar to those of the *Sheathipede*-class transport shuttle. These legs were used to walk on the ground when the ship landed. While in walk-mode, it could scuttle away to avoid police or other authorities. The design of the ship decreased the time it took to unload the ship, with the cargo hold located in its lower belly.
SD-K4 Assassin Droid

The **SD-K4 assassin droid**, also known as the **assassin probe**, or the **assassin probe droid**, was a model of assassin droid manufactured by Baktoid Combat Automata. Used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, it was also referred to as the **Separatist assassin probe** and **Separatist assassin droid**.
Platoon Attack Craft

The **Platoon Attack Craft (PAC)**, also known as the **Trade Federation troop carrier**, was a repulsorcraft personnel carrier used by the Trade Federation to transport B1-series battle droids.

## Characteristics

An unarmed variant of the Multi-Troop Transport, or MTT, the platoon attack craft boasted no weaponry or heavy armor and had to rely on Armored Assault Tanks and battle droids for protection. It was deployed behind the protection of ground armor in secure conditions, or within occupied territory. Although the MTTs offered greater protection, the troop carrier was faster and more agile, and many were still retained in the Trade Federation Droid Army.

The troop carrier was a repulsorcraft, and similar to the deployment racks used in MTTs, the troop carrier's single rack could carry a number of droids folded into their smaller configuration.
Verpine Shattered Rifle

The **Verpine shatter rifle** was a type of shatter gun created by the insectoid Verpine. The rifle used magnetic fields to fire small slugs at high speeds unattainable by typical slugthrowers, and produced a distinctive, audible crack as their metal-alloy projectiles broke the speed of sound. And while their rounds were relatively small, the speed with which they impacted a target inflicted great kinetic damage.
Providence-class Dreadnought

The ***Providence*-class Dreadnought**, otherwise referred to as the ***Providence*-class carrier/destroyer**, ***Providence*-class cruiser-carrier**, or simply the **Separatist dreadnought**, was a model of dreadnought designed by Quarren engineers on the planet Pammant, seeing extensive deployment by the Confederacy of Independent Systems naval branch throughout the duration of the Clone Wars. Initially utilized as command ships by the private fleet of the Trade Federation, where it was debuted with the *Invisible Hand*, the personal flagship of Viceroy Nute Gunray. The warship was cautiously deployed by the Confederacy's naval admiralty, due to the high operational costs for such a vessel, but was utilized in situations where its capabilities were necessary.
Turbo-Laser Destructor

The **Turbo-Laser Destructor**, also called a **Turbolaser**, is a much larger and very powerful version of a Lascannon. It uses complex optical devices and heavy power input to amplify the laser beam into a wider, more potent beam of laser energy. The beam carries enough punch to explosively vaporise its impact point in an area-of-effect blast.
Signum

The **Signum** is a special communication device which allows the user to access a myriad of useful battlefield targeting data and pass that information on to their companions, allowing for more accurate and coordinated fire.

## Overview

Signums are available to members of a Deathwatch Kill-Team as well as normal Adeptus Astartes Techmarines, Devastator Sergeants and Techpriest Enginseers of the Imperial Guard. While useful on its own, pairing a signum with the interconnected autosenses of a squad of Space Marines allows them to strike their foe with deadly and inescapable coordinated precision.
Spikes

A Clone captain in the Republic Navy. He is a veteran clone trooper who fought in the Battle of Jabiim where he earned his nickname "Spikes". At the start of the story, he has transferred out of the army and is serving as the naval captain of the *Venator*-class Star Destroyer *Trusted Victory*. In Season 3, he returns as the newly promoted admiral of the Victory Fleet in the Republic's counterattack armada sent to liberate Axum.
Ringneck Recon Droid

The **Ringneck recon droid**, also known as the **Separatist probe droid**, was a model of probe droid manufactured by Arakyd Industries. It was used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. It came in varying sizes, one of the most feared variants which protected the Separatist stronghold on Lola Sayu.

## Description

The Separatist probe droid was manufactured by Arakyd Industries. It came in a variety of sizes.

One of the most feared variants was the Viper recon droid, also known as the Ringneck recon droid, which was over 1.65 meters in height. It sported a large, bulbous central photoreceptor alongside several smaller ones that dotted the probe droid's main body. The droid was used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars against the Galactic Republic. The Republic's successor state, the Galactic Empire, in turn deployed the droid against the Spectres group of rebels on Lothal.

Another variant was a small probe droid model with a main, contractable photoreceptor installed on its body. The model was also used by the Confederacy during the Clone Wars.
Rumbler

**Rumblers** are heavily armoured Bikes.

## Overview

They are built to withstand gunfire and small explosions. The vehicles resemble the assault bikes used by Space Marines, save that Rumblers are fully enclosed and are topped by flashing lights and vox-casters. They are also armed with chassis mounted assault cannons.
Vox-Caster

The **Vox-caster** is a piece of Imperial technology used by the Imperial Guard to communicate orders over long distances. It is also useful for projecting the leadership of a command unit to the rest of the army, especially if the Vox-caster in the command squad is upgraded to a Master-Vox, although the effects of equipment like standards are not transmitted due to the need to see the standard to gain faith from it. When using the Master-Vox, it allows the commander to send multiple messages to the squads opposed to a normal Vox-caster which can only send one message at a time.

**Humphrey B. Flaubert** is the founding vocalist, primary songwriter and drummer/percussionist in TISM (aka This Is Serious Mum). Flaubert's pseudonym is a portmanteau of French novelist Gustave Flaubert (1821 – 1880) and Australian children's TV icon Humphrey B. Bear (1965 – 2008).

Flaubert has been a member of TISM in all its guises since its inception, and since the late 1980s has often appeared (alongside Ron Hitler-Barassi) as one of the band's primary spokesmen in media interviews and television appearances.

Reports that Flaubert has led a prolific musical career outside of TISM remain unconfirmed by the band; officially there is no member of TISM by the name of Damian Cowell.

## Official biography

***Humphrey B. Flaubert:*** rhythm, libido, lead vocals; position: rape of the virgins

You've seen him with roto toms, cow bells, gongs, and gigantic tribal drums on stage. But at the end of the day, it's much easier to press "start" on a drum machine: Roland TR808, TR909, TR606, Alesis D4 DrumModule, Yamaha DX7 and DX11 machines are used. Samples have been taken from the Casio VT 68, VL-1, Wersimatic WM-24, Visco SpaceDrum, Vermona Programmable, Mattel Syn-sonic Drums, Mel-o-sonic 350 and Electro-harmonics DRM32, as showcased in the track "Great Expectorations".

Humphrey also uses a black Tama Swing Star drum kit including 9" deep wooden snare, 22" kick, 14" Paiste 303 hi-hats and 18 " 2002 Paiste crash. (Kit also includes 2x rack toms and 1x floor toms plus 2x rototoms, not used.)

Humphrey, aka "Mr. Sampler", uses an Akai S2800 with increased memory, Cubase software , Alesis and Fostex 8track ADAT machines, plus Roland D550 and TB303 bass synths. Synth and drum samples have been lifted from various house, dub, and techno recordings - all other samples come from the Flaubert vinyl collection.

Humphrey is TISM's lead vocalist. However he sees his role in the group as "the ugly bloke who can't sing or dance, hanging around like a bad smell and doing those annoying "rappin'" bits inbetween the singing of a couple of gorgeous girls in one-millimetre space suits, as found on your Boney M, Aqua, La Bouche type records."

Well aware of the correlation between drum-kits/gym membership/car-as-penis, Flaubert wishes to make it clear that he has the smallest drumkit in rock.

Powerlifter

The **Powerlifter** is a device used on Imperial Guard Sentinels. The Powerlifter consists of a pair of strong hydraulic claws, easily capable of crushing a man. Despite this, the Powerlifter is most often used for logistical and hauling duties. The Powerlifter is also equipped with a counterweight mounted on the rear to prevent the Sentinel from tipping forward when it is holding heavy cargo.
Umbaran Mobile Heavy Cannon

The **Umbaran mobile heavy cannon (UMHC)** was a model of walker used by Umbarans during the Clone Wars.

## Characteristics

The Umbaran MHC was a massive heavily armored six-legged walker. Its main weapon was a large rotating electromagnetic plasma cannon located on its head designed to desintegrate entire platoons of enemy soldiers. It was also equipped with twin antipersonnel laser cannons. Like the Umbaran starfighter, the controls for the MHC tank were activated by hand motions.
Republic Troop Transport

The **Republic Troop Transport**, also known as the **RTT** or the **Republic Convoy Transport**, was a ground transport that saw widespread use by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars.

## Characteristics

This airspeeder vehicle had low speed and very little armor, but was armed with two laser cannons and two mass driver missile launchers for self-defense. It could be carried onboard an LAAT/c to quickly reach strategic points on the battlefield.
Predator Annihilator

The **Predator Annihilator** is a variant of the basic Predator Destructor tank used by the Chapters of the Space Marines.

## Armament

The Predator Annihilator is an anti-armour variant of the basic Predator Destructor. That tank's turret-mounted Autocannon has been replaced with Twin-linked "Stormbringer" Pattern Lascannons. These Lascannons feature flash dampeners and special focusing rings which are powered by diaquartzoid crystal batteries for maximum efficiency. Each of the tank's two barrels are good for about 1000 shots before the effects of heat warping require them to be replaced.

The Predator Annihilator, like all Predator variants, can be equipped with two sponson-mounted weapons, either Heavy Bolters or Lascannons. A Predator Annihilator armed with sponson-mounted Lascannons in addition to its turret-mounted Lascannons makes for a very formidable anti-armour vehicle. The tank also features self-sealing hatches that protect the crew from hazardous environments, a narrow-band long-range Vox array for keeping in contact with other friendly forces, and special spinal implant interfaces that allows the crew of Astartes to directly interface with their vehicle's Cogitator systems through their Power Armour.

The Predator Annihilator can also be outfitted with a Dozer Blade, Extra Armour Plating, a Hunter-Killer Missile Launcher, improved communications systems, a Pintle-mounted Storm Bolter, a Searchlight, and Smoke Launchers.
Thunderhawk

The **Thunderhawk** gunship is used by the Adeptus Astartes as their primary means of deploying forces for ground combat as well as their primary source of air support. The Thunderhawk gunship is often considered the lynchpin of any Space Marine Chapter, as it is able to fulfill many combat roles.

## Overview

The Thunderhawk is fully capable of functioning as an orbital drop ship, a heavy ground attack gunship, or as a bomber. The aircraft is able to quickly carry Space Marine forces from orbiting starships down into the midst of a battle, while at the same time providing supporting fire against enemy ground or air targets.

Even though the Thunderhawk is a large vehicle, it is controlled with a relatively small crew, which includes the Techmarine pilot, co-pilot, gunner, and navigator.
Ripper Gun

A **Ripper Gun** is a heavy, automatic combat Shotgun built to the massive scale of Ogryns serving in the Imperial Guard. Compared to other Imperial weapons, these weapons are fairly simple, somewhat akin to the Ork Shoota.

## Overview

A Ripper Gun is a short range weapon that fires several shells at once to compensate for the poor aim of the average Ogryn. Ripper Guns usually can fire either a single heavy shell or a hail of shot in each burst, and possesses a hard-wired burst limiter to prevent the Ogryn from emptying his weapon the first time he pulls the trigger. This is something Ogryns find amusing, but as they often fail to remember to switch magazines, this habit leaves them without a ranged weapon. By design, the Ripper Gun does not have a long range because of an Ogryn's instinct to always favour close combat.

Ripper Guns are intended to be fired to soften up the enemy before the Ogryns charge into close combat, and are built particularly robustly so that they can stand up to the Ogryn use of them as clubs in melee. Ripper Guns can also be fitted with Ripper Saws.

A Ripper Saw is, as the name implies, a saw blade that is attached to the end of a Ripper Gun which is intended to provide the Ogryn with an effective close combat melee weapon once they close with the enemy. The Ripper Gun is one of the few Imperial weapons that is intentionally crafted for use by Ogryns, and its design is intended to be much more durable and larger than a standard Imperial weapon, to compensate for the Ogryns' extreme clumsiness and intellectual deficits.
Space Wolves

The **Space Wolves**, known in their own dialect of Juvjk as the ***Vlka Fenryka*** or "Wolves of Fenris," are one of the original 20 First Founding Space Marine Chapters, and were once led by their famed primarch, Leman Russ. Originally the VIth Legion of Astartes raised by the Emperor at the dawn of the Great Crusade, the Space Wolves are renowned for their anti-authoritarian ways and their embrace of their homeworld Fenris' savage barbarian culture as well as their extreme deviation from the *Codex Astartes* in the Chapter's organisation.
Vendetta

The **Vendetta** is a heavy gunship of the Imperial Navy's Aeronautica Imperialis and is a more heavily-armed variant of the Valkyrie airborne assault carrier primarily used as a tank-buster in support of the ground troops of the Astra Militarum.

## Overview

The Vendetta is a Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft and is primarily used as a transport for airborne combat regiments such as Imperial Tempestus Scion Squads and soldiers of the Elysian Drop Troops Militarum Regimentum.

The Vendetta's armament is designed to more effectively combat enemy armoured units and provide ground-based fire support than the standard pattern Valkyrie. The Vendetta is used as heavy air support for Imperial ground forces, as the aircraft is capable of staying on-station once its troops have been dropped to provide heavy air support against enemy armour.
Thunderhawk Transporter

The **Thunderhawk Transporter** is a logistical variant of the standard Thunderhawk gunship used by the Adeptus Astartes to carry Space Marine vehicles into combat zones. The Thunderhawk Transporter, while lacking the firepower of the standard Thunderhawk, is no less important to an Astartes Chapter.

## Overview

The Thunderhawk Transporter can quickly load up to two Rhino sized vehicles of any type, or a single Land Raider sized vehicle, also of any type, from an orbiting Strike Cruiser or Battle Barge and bring those vehicles down safely to a planetary surface. The aircraft can also transport infantry, as long as they are inside of the vehicles before they are picked up.

The Thunderhawk Transporter's armament and battlefield role are not the only differences from the standard Thunderhawk gunship. The Transporter variant is equipped with four powerful RX-92-00 combined rocket/air-breathing turbofan engines mounted on its four wings, whereas the standard Thunderhawk only has three, with one mounted on the aircraft's rear fuselage.
The Imperium Strikes

## Plot

War! It must be war! How could it be anything else? Having arrived in the system just in time to watch their self destruct, the reality of all of this is crystal clear to Shina. But not to Renphi, as the Jedi continues his attempts to prevent hostilities from breaking out, even as the first shorts in this new crusade are exchanged.

But unlike other ship, the Honor Hound is not being targeted, not by macro shells, or Godsbane Lance beams, or even Bombardment Canons. No, the Honor Hound, the Flagship of this Fleet, is being targeted by something very different, but arguably just as lethal, if not more so. Astartes. Is survival for the Doctor and the Jedi even possible, when faced with the Emperors own Angels of Death?
Separatist Super Tank

The **super tank** was an experimental tank created by Baktoid Armor Workshop. Commissioned by the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

## Characteristic

The super tank was an experimental tank created by Baktoid Armor Workshop. It looked similar to the MTT which was also made by Baktoid. It was about half the size of the MTT and had its twin blaster cannons located on the same spot as the MTT. The repulsortank also had one turret-mounted twin laser cannon located on the outside in the middle of the craft on either side. Concealed under a retractable section of its armor plating were the vehicle's main weapons: a set of twin warhead launchers capable of easily obliterating an AT-TE walker. It was equipped with ray shielded armor and could easily deflect shots from an AT-TE walker and an AV-7 Antivehicle Cannon. The tank had the logo of the CIS painted on both sides.
Stormhammer

The **Stormhammer** is a super-heavy tank of the Astra Militarum and is the rarest variant of the Baneblade super-heavy tank. The Stormhammer is one of the most powerful tanks ever deployed by the Imperium of Man in terms of its pure firepower on the battlefield, and it is believed to be the most heavily armed tank currently used by the Imperium's armed forces during the 41st Millennium. As a result, the Stormhammer is the rarest of the Baneblade tank variants in use by the Imperial Guard, or any other Imperial faction.
Space Marine Scout

**Scout Marines** are the newest recruits in a Space Marine Chapter. Their duties are to infiltrate the enemy positions or to fight as lightly armed skirmishers ahead of the rest of the Chapter. Operating behind enemy lines, Space Marine Scouts set ambushes for their foes, spy out the enemy's movements, and gather what information they can about their opponent's plans.
Wookiee Dual Missile Turret

The **Wookiee dual missile turret**, or **Wookiee Dual Launcher**, was a defensive anti-air emplacement individually produced by Wookiee turret crafters and employed during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

## Overview

The turret contained two explosive warhead-tipped missiles in as many launch tubes. It had a slow rate of fire but could pierce the hull of a starship, making the launcher perfectly suited to defend Wookiees from Trandoshan or Separatist forces.
Warmaster-class Titan

The ***Warmaster*-class Titan** is a Heavy Battle Titan that makes it amongst the most powerful classes of Titans in the Imperium of Man. This god-engine is one of several classes of massive, crewed, robotic combat walkers fielded by the Titan Legions of the Adeptus Mechanicus' Collegia Titanica.

## Overview

Looming over even a *Warlord*-class Titan at 40.91 metres (approximately 134 feet) in height, the *Warmaster* is equipped with a pair of Suzerain-class Plasma Destructors that turn anything they hit into molten slag, a Titan-sized Revelator Missile Launcher and a pair of Turbo-Laser Destructors (or similarly destructive weapons) mounted under the carapace.

For protection the *Warmaster* is equipped with seven void shield generators. Six servitor clades also mean that repairing damage is easier for the Heavy Battle Titan's commanding princeps.

The *Warmaster* Titan's crew consists of a princeps and 3 to 6 moderati, including a maximus, steersman, navigator, sensorius, oratorius and tacticarus.

## Armament

The Warmaster Titan bristles with heavy armament, requiring a secondary reactor to power its many weapons systems. These include two Suzerain-Class Plasma Destructors and Revelator Missile Battery for primary weapons and four twin-linked Ardex-Defensor Autocannons, Missile Launchers, and twin-linked Lascannon mounts for lighter foes and aircraft. Its shoulders can also sport two support weapons including Melta Cannons, Plasma Blastguns, Inferno Gun, Vulcan Mega-Bolters, Apocalypse Missile Launchers, and Turbo-Laser Destructors. For protection it is equipped with 7 Void Shield generators. Six servitor clades also mean that repairing damage is easier for the Warmaster’s princeps.

## Warmaster Iconoclast Titan

Warmaster Iconoclast are melee focused Warmaster Titans that charge into battle. They are armed with Desolator Chainswords and either Krius Siege Drills or Krius Grav Imploders. The Iconoclasts are also equipped with Cruciator Gatling Arrays, shoulder-mounted Apocalypse Missile Launchers, Plasma blastguns, Melta Cannons, and other weapons as well.

Vulture Droid

The **Variable Geometry Self-Propelled Battle Droid, Mark I**, also known as the ***Vulture*-class droid starfighter**, or more simply as the **vulture droid**, was an unmanned model of droid starfighter manufactured by Haor Chall Engineering Corporation and utilized by the Trade Federation and later the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The fighter relied on overwhelming numbers during combat. Usually, these droids were constructed in the cathedral factories of Xi Char, where precision manufacturing was considered an act of religious worship. They were present at many engagements during the Clone Wars.
