The plastic Mark VI Space Marines for Warhammer: The Horus Heresy are an awesome way to bring a whole heap of bolter death to the battlefields of the Age of Darkness. But what if you need even more firepower?
The Mark VI Tactical Squad is one of the most flexible kits ever. It’s the lynchpin of your army – which you need to claim objectives and win games, and with the addition of these new weapon upgrade kits, you can transform it into Legion Tactical Support Squads or Legion Heavy Support Squads to really bring the hurt.
During the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy that followed it, entire squads were usually armed with the same weapon, and the new upgrade kits make it super simple to kit out your infantry. The Special Weapons upgrade set contains 10 meltaguns, 10 plasma guns, 10 volkite calivers, 10 volkite chargers, 10 flamers, and 10 rotor cannons.
Need to kill your enemies from further away? There’s an upgrade kit containing 10 heavy bolters and 10 missile launchers.
Prefer fire, melta, and plasma weapons? There’s an upgrade kit for you! It features 10 plasma cannons, 10 heavy flamers, and 10 multi-meltas.
Finally, there’s an upgrade kit with 10 volkite culverins, 10 lascannons, and 10 autocannons.
While each Legion had their preferred support weapons, they each made use of all these guns at various points throughout the Horus Heresy. So all you need to do is select your favourite weapons and you’re good to start hammering those Loyalists/Traitors (delete as appropriate).
