Catachan Pattern - This Sentinel is armed with a Heavy Flamer and Chainblade for use in jungles and is effective for both clearing a path as well as a fire support weapon against dug-in infantrymen. The Catachan pattern Sentinel is also generally camouflaged using a jungle scheme. The Thunderbolt heavy fighter is one of the two main fighter aircraft patterns used by the Imperial Navy, the other of which is the Lightning air superiority fighter. The Thunderbolt is the mainstay weapon system of Imperial Navy fighter wings and is a rugged, well-armed and armoured heavy fighter with all-around capabilities, a good maximum speed and above-average maneuverability, powerful nose-mounted weapons and hard points located on the wings for missile or bomb load-outs. It is an aircraft that is well-liked by those who fly and service it and it has served the cause of the Emperor for many centuries. The Basilisk can fire its main weapon directly at an enemy, but this means the Basilisk would have to be close to the enemy which is not good considering it is lightly armoured, instead the Basilisk will stay away from the main fighting and fire its weapon indirectly.

Chimerro assault vehicles mount a standard hunter-killer missile tube with an autoloader on the side of the standard multi-laser turret. This addition gives the Chimerro a powerful long-range weapon, while the multi-laser still allows it to support its disembarked infantry by mowing down enemy troops. [1] Exterminator - The Leman Russ Exterminator variant carries twin-linked Autocannons in its turret, and Heavy Bolters in its sponsons. The Exterminator is best suited to anti-infantry work, and has limited anti-air capabilities as well, while it is also faster than the standard. Exterminators are also common tank command vehicles because of their unique weapon systems and defensive capabilities. The Hellhound, based upon the Chimera chassis, is a flame tank. Its main weapon is the Inferno Cannon also called the "Dragon Fire Thrower", which is a large Heavy Flamer that projects streams of burning Promethium at range, making the Hellhound well-suited to close-range support, such as countering enemy melee units that attempt to assault Imperial armoured vehicles and driving dug-in enemies out of cover. It is also armed with a Hull-Mounted Heavy BolterIn the past, only certain units were allowed to bundle out of a transport on the same turn it had moved, presumably due to the strict health and safety regulation at this point in history. But with the galaxy tumbling into turmoil, these concerns have fallen by the wayside. x95 Plastic Components: The Chimera kit consists of 95 plastic components, allowing you to build and customize your own Chimera model.

The Hellbore Heavy Mole is a super-large burrowing vehicle and is the largest of the tunnelling troop transports utilised by the Adeptus Mechanicus known collectively as "tunnellers" or "miners". It is far larger than both the Termite and the Mole, and like them utilises a phase-field generator to burrow deep underground with its massive drill, carrying many units of Imperial troops safely far below the surface of the earth, beneath enemy fortifications and formations. This allows the Hellbore to surface behind an enemy's position or the flanks of an enemy fortification at which point its troops disembark for close assault. This vehicle is equipped with Multi-Launchers and Heavy Bolters. Marauder Colossus - This variant of the Marauder was designed as a heavy ordinance bomber capable of destroying heavily fortified structures and strong-points. The Leman Russ battle tank is the most commonly found tank in Imperial Guard regiments. It is a simple design and one that has stood the test of time. Its versatility and relative ease of construction make it the tank most often requested by imperial officers to be attached to their infantry formations. Vendetta - Unlike the Sky Talon variant of the Valkyrie, the Vendetta is heavily armed and is used as a tank hunter. After dropping off its precious human cargo, the Vendetta will act as heavy air support for the ground infantry. Start by applying a basecoat of Mechanicus Standard Grey to the entire Chimera model. This will provide a solid foundation for the subsequent layers of paint.

The preferred combat doctrine of the Death Korps holds that either its troops not be reliant on mechanised transports or that its regiments utilise much larger and heavier transports such as the Gorgon for heavy assaults. As such, the Chimera sees limited use in the Death Korps of Krieg and most commonly as the Storm Chimera variant. This multipart plastic kit allows you to construct one Chimera, a formidable transport vehicle capable of deploying troops and providing mobile firepower. The Chimera features a turret-mounted primary weapon, allowing you to choose between a multi-laser, heavy bolter, or heavy flamer. Additionally, it is equipped with a hull-mounted heavy bolter or heavy flamer. The vehicle is equipped with a lasgun array that can be operated by the embarked troops, featuring six integrated lasguns along its sides. The kit also provides options for enhancing the Chimera’s capabilities, including a hunter-killer missile, dozer blade, and the choice of a pintle-mounted storm bolter or heavy stubber. A codex is a comprehensive sourcebook specific to a faction or army in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Vanquisher - The rare Leman Russ Vanquisher variant mounts a high-calibre long-range Vanquisher Cannon and co-axial Storm Bolter. It is used for long-ranged anti-vehicle support. It is also often armed with a Pintle-mounted Heavy Stubber. The Chimera offers flexibility in its assembly, allowing you to build it with either a closed or open hatch. In the latter configuration, you can choose from various head and arm options for the exposed crew member. The kit includes a range of additional accessories to customize your Chimera, such as a searchlight, comms system, towing hooks, and the iconic aquila sigil. Chimera Datasheets What’s in the Chimera boxThe Marauder is the primary bomber used during in-atmosphere planetary bombing raids by the Imperial Navy. It was at one point used also as the primary space bomber of the Imperial Navy, but has been replaced with the heavier Starhawk bomber for all exo-atmospheric bombing runs. The Marauder has several variants that are in use by the Imperium. Annihilator - The Leman Russ Annihilator includes Twin-linked Lascannons in place of the Battle Cannon, much like the Space Marine Predator "Annihilator" variant. Valkyrie Sky Talon - This variant of the Valkyrie is used to transport light vehicles that are to be used as heavy support for drop-infantry, such as the Elysian Drop Troops. Artemia pattern - The Artemia pattern differs in two key ways: it has a remotely operated turret, reducing the number of crew to two, and the cargo space is replaced with a much larger capacity fuel cell. This fuel cell is by necessity very heavily armoured. [3] If every model in an INFANTRY unit is on or in an Area Terrain feature with this trait, then it can either Hold Steady or it can Set to Defend (see below) when an enemy unit declares a charge against it.

Death Korps of Krieg Armoured Regiment - Battle for Tartarus Hive during the Third War for ArmageddonThe ecology of Chimereas is closely tied to the Winds of Magic. Chimeras appear, alone or in the hosts of Chaos, when the Winds are strong; once they begin to thin, however, they become rare even in the Chaos Wastes. They are occasionally reported in remote wildernesses, such as high passes or the depths of forests, but most of these sightings are of other, more common Chaos beasts such as Manticores. [4a]
