Benevolent Fury

With the two Sicaran Battle Tanks already complete, I wanted a third, specialist unit, so a heavy tank destroyer seemed like a strong choice.

This, like the other two Sicarans, is a full resin Forgeworld model and it’s a big chunky model with the rather prominent Neutron Laser main weapon and three heavy bolters.

So it turns out that not all Neutron Lasers are equal. The Sicaran Venator has the Hadyxis Pattern Beam Laser – A notable variant of the standard Neutron Laser Projector. This was one of the most powerful weapons mounted on any Imperial vehicle of its class. The Hadyxis Pattern Neutron Beam Laser was a more compact and sophisticated variant of the arcane neutron laser array found mounted on the far larger Cerberus Heavy Tank Destroyer. While lacking the sheer damage output of the Cerberus’ system, its shorter-focused, densely collimated beam at least dealt with the risks of dangerous feedback that had plagued that weapons system. This advance was only made possible by the Archmagos Jun Hadyxis of Phaeton in the closing decade of the Great Crusade, and along with the life of the savant-genius that created it, the secret of the weapon’s construction would be lost in the bitter years of wars to follow (Source: Warhammer 40K Fandom)

Plenty of Battle Damage on this model, paint damage, scratches and scrapes included.

More 3D printed corpses and skulls and some classic Games Workshop parts.

Spare Heavy Bolter Ammo boxes from Zinge Industries…

All the Heavy Bolters are magnetised.

I had a bunch of Night Lords emblems 3D printed and made and I had added one to the front face of this model.
