Horus Heresy - Legiones Astartes: Spartan Assault Tank
The Spartan Assault Tank is a huge armoured conveyer, designed to bear a great contingent of troops into the heart of enemy lines, weathering weapons fire that would be the death of any lesser vehicle. Protected by a sealed shell of legendarily durable plating, the Spartan's carrying capacity exceeds anything but a true super-heavy transporter, while retaining an impressive speed across the battlefield. Its quad lascannons make the Spartan a fearsome tank destroyer, while its secondary armaments allow it to sweep infantry from its path. The Spartan takes pride of place in the armouries of many Legions, its presence limited only by its sheer scale.
This multipart plastic kit builds one Spartan Assault Tank, an imposing and indomitable transport vehicle. The Spartan is armed with two sponson-mounted lascannon arrays, as well as a twin-linked hull-mounted weapon – your choice of heavy bolter, heavy flamer, or lascannon. Both the sponsons and the front transport ramp can be assembled gluelessly, allowing you to adjust their positioning and expose the Spartan's detailed internal bay as you see fit. The kit also includes components to upgrade the Spartan with a pintle-mounted weapon – a havoc launcher, heavy bolter, heavy flamer, multi-melta, or a combi-weapon with five configurations (bolter, flamer, melta, plasma, or volkite) – as well as a searchlight, a hunter-killer missile, and cosmetic options such as towing hooks, a dozer blade, icons for Loyalists and Traitors, and a choice of a Space Marine gunner, spotter, or closed hatch.
This kit comprises 213 plastic components, and is supplied with a Legiones Astartes Vehicle Transfer Sheet containing 44 optional markings and icons for the Sons of Horus and Imperial Fists Legions. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints.
