Solar Auxilia: Rapier Fire Support Battery

<p>The Rapier weapons carrier is used extensively by the Solar Auxilia – its rugged track assembly can transport support weaponry too heavy for an auxiliary to carry. The Rapier fulfils a number of battlefield roles in both attack and defence, and can be deployed alongside all manner of different force types, from vanguard exploration to full-scale planetary assault.<br /><br /><strong>Bring Out the Big Guns</strong><br /><br />This multipart plastic kit builds 2 Rapier Carriers and 2 additional crew on foot, heavy support weapons for your Solar Auxilia armies in games of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy. These mobile platforms allow you to support the implacable advance of your infantry formations while also being able to quickly redeploy as the tactical situation requires.<br /><br /><strong>Gear Up Your Gunners</strong><br /><br />Each Rapier can be armed with either a 'Thudd Gun' quad launcher for taking out infantry formations or a mole mortar for attacking dug-in enemies and the vulnerable bottom armour of tanks. The crew on foot have interchangeable arms, including options carrying rifles, scopes, and a map. There are also options to carry extra ammunition for each weapon type.<br /><br />Rules for this unit can be found in the Warhammer: The Horus Heresy Journal Tactica: The Battle for Tallarn – Part One supplement, available separately.<br /><br /><strong>Contents:</strong><br />– 198 plastic components<br />– 2 Citadel 90mm by 52.5mm Oval Bases<br />– 2 Citadel 25mm Round Bases<br />– 1 construction guide<br /><br /><strong>These miniatures require assembly and are supplied unpainted.</strong></p>
