Legions Imperialis: Malcador Squadron
The Malcador battle tank possesses a number of advantages to its design; the principal of which is its battle speed; which is truly formidable for a tank of its size thanks to a highly sophisticated drive system. By the time of the Horus Heresy; they saw use with second line Imperial Army units; while the focus moved on to smaller; more tactically ?exible tanks. The demands of the war brought them back into mainline usage; where they’re fielded in massive formations and retrofitted with a diverse array of weapons.
This multipart plastic kit builds four epic scale Malcadors; battle tanks for your Solar Auxilia armies. Faster and more lightly armoured than Leman Russ battle tanks; they can be equipped with a variety of weapons to cover your desired battlefield role. The turret can house a versatile Malcador battlecannon; armour-busting Malcador lascannon; or long-range sniper Malcador vanquisher battlecannon. The hull can be fitted with a heavy bolter; lascannon; autocannon; or demolisher cannon; and the sponsons can carry Malcador autocannons; Malcador lascannons; or Malcador heavy bolters. You can further customise your squadron with a choice of gunners; spotters; or closed hatch atop the hull.
