Primaris Repulsor

Space Marine Repulsor

Although clearly derived from the same standard template construct patterns as other vehicles of the Adeptus Astartes, the Repulsor is the first armored vehicle used by the Empire of Mankind since the early days of the Horus Heresy and features anti-gravity technology uses 31st millennium.

The armored transport Repulsor is a deadly combination of maneuverability and raw brute force. It has tremendous propulsion power due to the turbine array at its stern and is kept aloft by powerful anti-gravity generators.

The Repulsor is so heavily armed and armored that instead of gliding across the landscape like a Space Marine scout ship like the Land Speeder, it instead smashes the ground beneath it. The tank grinds forward with a deep bass rumble, reducing rocks to gravel and fallen bodies to smears of blood and powdered bone.

Repulsors are exceptionally tough. Decked out in layered armor plating of ceramite and adamantium compounds, these vehicles repel the enemy's heaviest fire while relentlessly carving a path to the center of their battle lines. Then their hatches open, letting their towering post-human passengers rush out, guns blazing.

The Repulsor is one of several new and more advanced designs of military vehicle created for use by the Primaris Space Marine Chapters, raised by Belisarius Cawl in preparation for the Indomitus Crusade, enacted by the Empire's Lord Commander Roboute Guilliman the birth of the Great Rift.

The Repulsor's antigravity belly plates were created by Archmagos Dominus Cawl's desire to create a transport worthy of his Primaris Marines - a vehicle capable of attacking the enemy suddenly and repeatedly until the day is won.

Those who attempt to approach with a repulsor battle an invisible bowwave of energy that staggers and slams everyone nearby; Since the belly plates are powered separately, this can even be directed by the pilot of the vehicle for better effect.

As a result, enemies attempting to approach the repulsor lean into a pounding downdraft of unseen power. Some are knocked off their feet, pinned down and unable to escape as the tank inevitably approaches.

By comparison, Space Marines entering or exiting the repulsor are unhindered by the tank's gravitational energies, which are channeled away from them by clever crew control changes.

Multiple layers of Ceramite and Adamantium overlap to make the Repulsor's hull all but impervious to normal weaponry; Even a direct hit from a missile is likely to leave little more than a scorch mark on the heraldic colors of the tank's parent Chapter. So it carries the Primaris Space Marines to the front line in full force, its side portals swinging open for a deadly attack of its own.

Each repulsor can carry 10 Primaris Marines in its armored hull.

This multi-part plastic kit contains the components necessary to assemble a Space Marines Primaris Repulsor, an armored transport capable of not only carrying 10 Primaris Space Marines into battle, but also itself with the vast array of weapons at its disposal , defended. The repulsor has a choice of:

• a turret-mounted heavy attack gatling cannon that can be replaced with a cargo claw;
• a front-mounted twin heavy bolter that can be replaced with a twin laser cannon;
• a trunnion-mounted heavy Ironhail Stubber that can be replaced with an Assault Gatling Cannon;
• a rear-mounted Icarus Eisenhagel heavy stubber that can be replaced with an Icarus missile pod, storm bolter, or - a frag storm grenade launcher;
• 2 storm bolters that can be replaced 2 Splitstorm grenade launchers;
• Auto Launchers that can replace 2 Splitstorm grenade launchers.

The Repulsor also comes equipped with a pair of Krakstorm Grenade Launchers and can hold an additional Iron Hail Heavy Stubber.
