Kromlech Wheel Out The Legionaries’ Annihilation Beamer
December 20, 2017 by dracs
Kromlech has added a new mobile heavy weapon to the Legionaries' arsenal; the evocatively named Annihilation Beamer.
The Annihilation Beamer is a very cool, Sci-Fi weapon. It is wonderfully outlandish, a true weapon of future technology, rather than an upscaled design of more recognisable weapons tech.
From the look and name, I would say this fires some sort of laser, just what you need to cut through the heavy plate of enemy vehicles and elite units.
What would you use this weapon as?
"Wonderfully outlandish, a true weapon of future technology..."
The word “Annihilation” says it all 😀
Looks like something dwarfs would roll and use to bore a tunnel through a defensive wall or a rock face.
Hmmm, looks very similar to one I actually have from Mantic minus the Leman Russ Tracks

Not fond of the WW1 farm equipment drive train and suspension, nor does it make sense to build something with such a high profile. The idea behind modern vehicles is to lower their profile as much as possible, thus reducing the chances of a hit.
Aye but gothic sci-fi tends towards the thinking of “if you’re not getting shot at you’re not trying hard enough” and any attempt to build something that won’t attract fire is a sure sign of heresy.
