Games Workshop chaos predator space marine tank

Product Information

The original Predator designs were constructed with a small amount of troop-carrying capacity, but during the years of the Emperor's Great Crusade in the late 30th and early 31st Millennium this transport capacity was gradually replaced with more storage space for ammunition, especially if the Predator was equipped with sponson-mounted weapons.

The Predator Destructor is the most common variant of the Predator used by the Space Marines, and its long-barreled Syrtis Pattern Autocannon main armament, also known as a Predator Cannon, makes it most effective in an anti-infantry role. Adeptus Astartes - The Predator Annihilator is used by every known Space Marine Chapter in the Imperium; it is deployed alongside the Predator Destructor as an anti-armour vehicle and as heavy fire support for infantry.

Frequently, the Predators used by the Chaos Space Marines have been in active service for longer than those who march alongside them. They have become embellished with horrific decorations, ragged pennants, leering gargoyles, beast-headed gun muzzles and icons of Chaos, making them as much a statement of their owners' hatred of the Imperium as weapons of war.Heldrake • Stormbird • Thunderhawk • Chaos Storm Eagle • Chaos Fire Raptor • Hell Blade • Hell Talon • Harbinger • Chaos Dreadclaw • Kharybdis Assault Claw • Fire Lord • Doom Wing The Predator Destructor tank has been the iron fist of the Traitor Legions since the days of the Horus Heresy, and it is the most common Predator variant used by the Chaos Space Marines. The problem with the heavy bolters is that the lascannons do almost as much damage as the heavy bolters vs MEQs in cover, and if they are not in cover the lascannons are better anti-infantry weapons. Ok, the lascannons are much worse if you want to kill guardsmen or gaunts, but the added utility they bring is nothing to scoff at. They are also great at killing 2+ save models, which I most of the time prefer to kill long before they reach my lines, thanks to our retarded always-challenge rule. All variants of the Predator can also be outfitted with a Dozer Blade, Extra Armour Plating, a Hunter-Killer Missile Launcher, improved communications equipment, a Pintle-mounted Storm Bolter, a Searchlight, and Smoke Launchers.

The Annihilator variant of the Predator was originally conceived as a field-modification by the Space Wolves Chapter, but after an intense investigation that lasted for over 200 standard years, it was found by the Adeptus Mechanicus that the replacement of the Autocannon with Twin-linked Lascannons had been a feature found within the vehicle's original Standard Template Construct (STC) designs and thus it became on officially recognised part of the Imperium's arsenal. Some Tech-Priests speculate that once the main auto-loading ammunition feeds were more efficient and able to cycle rounds at a faster rate than the Predator's systems of M41. Even if it is likely true, the older pattern of autoloader is thought to be long lost, though extant examples are still hidden somewhere and waited for the technology hunters to find them. [8a] Armour One of the most well-known examples of chaos is the logistic map, originally a discrete map model of animal reproduction 4. Despite some prominent early examples of chaos originating in ecology, the focus in the study of chaos was elsewhere. Fewer instances of chaos were found in ecological models in continuous time such as the one presented here, and the topic therefore received less attention. Nonetheless, chaotic behaviour has been predicted from continuous time mathematical models in some cases 2. A few important examples include models with two competing prey species 5, 6, 7, 8, N competing species 9, and an omnivore-prey-resource system 10. See also the review by Hastings et al. 2 for an overview of the earlier work on this topic. A more recent discovery is the fact that chaos occurs even in a simple discrete time Lotka-Volterra system 11.

Imperial Armour Volume Thirteen - War Machines of the Lost & The Damned by Andy Hoare with additional material by Alan Bligh & Neil Wylie, pp. 28-29 where a ≡ α x /γ, b ≡ α y /γ, c ≡ ε y /ε x, d ≡ δ/γ and R ≡ β x(0)/γ = βδ/γη x. R (often called R 0 for a given epidemic) is the basic reproduction number of the disease at the initial susceptible prey density x s = 1. The basic reproduction number is defined as the number of new infections caused by one infected individual dropped into a susceptible population. In real epidemics R varies from around 1, the minimum required for the epidemic to start, up to around 18 in extremely infectious diseases such as measles 26. This rescaling allows us to reduce the number of unknown parameters from nine to five, and also rids us of the coupling constants η x,y whose size and relationship with ε x,y are hard to determine. From now on, we will drop the tildes and simply use x,y,z etc. to refer to dimensionless variables. With so relatively few parameters, extracting information from the equations should be easy. This is what we will do in the following section. Stability analysis We see from these estimates that for a given disease there are in fact only two parameters that matter: The size ratio of the susceptible and immune prey species, and the size ratio of the susceptible prey and the predator. Interestingly, we also see that the condition for chaos b< ac translates to \(\frac{7}{400}{(\frac{{m}_{x}}{{m}_{y}})}

Heldrake • Stormbird • Thunderhawk • Storm Eagle • Fire Raptor • Hell Blade • Hell Talon • Harbinger • Dreadclaw • Kharybdis During the Great Crusade, the Predator sacrificed its small troop-carrying capacity in exchange for more ammunition storage, as many Predators were being equipped with sponson-mounted weapons. This practise became standard and now all Predators are equipped with sponson-mounted weapons, which are usually Heavy Bolters or Lascannons.

It possesses a distinctive square turret mounted on the forward hull as opposed to the centre. Using the Long Fang's Lascannons, they created the very first Predator Annihilators, and used them to break their enemies' siege and cut massive swaths through the Traitors' armoured units and Dreadnoughts. After this impressive display, the Adeptus Mechanicus began a 200-year-long investigation into the Predator Annihilator, and eventually gave the vehicle the Machine God's blessing, although by this time the Space Wolves had already been using the Predator Annihilator for over 190 standard years.The Predator Annihilator can also be outfitted with a Dozer Blade, Extra Armour Plating, a Hunter-Killer Missile Launcher, improved communications systems, a Pintle-mounted Storm Bolter, a Searchlight, and Smoke Launchers. A Predator Destructor may also be armed with the following sets of sponson weapons, two weapons per set:

Chaos Vindicators can also be equipped with Siege Shields , destroyer blades, Dirge Casters , extra armour plating, Chaos Icons or Marks, or Warpflame Gargoyles . They may also be possessed by a daemon , or be bestowed with other "gifts" from the Chaos Gods . The Vindicator gives all of its interior troop space over to carrying the ammunition for its Demolisher Cannon and as such cannot transport any passengers.

The Adeptus Mechanicuswas suitably infuriated at the Space Wolves' blasphemous alteration to a holy STCdesign, however their success could not be denied. While the Space Wolves continued to field Predator Annihilators, the Tech-priests examined the design, debated its sanctity in councils and ran extensive trials. Two hundred years later, it was found that the modified tank was not only acceptable to the Machine God, but that the Predator was intentionally designed to accept such a retrofit. The Predator Annihilator has since found its way into the Armouries of many other Space Marine Chapters.

Chaos vehicles conversions are always great. Som today we look at some brightest examples of Predators and Vindicators, found in the Internet. Crafted from high-quality multipart plastic, this kit allows you to assemble your own Chaos Predator, an embodiment of the twisted power wielded by the Traitor Legions. The versatile turret of the Predator offers the option to mount a devastating autocannon, perfect for tearing through heavy infantry, or a pair of twin lascannons that can obliterate even the most formidable tanks. Enhancements can be made to the tank using adjustable side-sponsons, granting the choice between equipping heavy bolters or lascannons. Additionally, the Chaos Predator can be outfitted with a rooftop havoc launcher and a pintle-mounted combi-bolter or combi-flamer, providing additional strategic options for unleashing havoc upon the enemy. What’s in the Chaos Predator box All Rhino and Predator variants are based off of designs originally created during the Age of Technology, using Standard Template Construct (STC) database designs. The tanks can be constructed on Forge Worlds of the Adeptus Mechanicus or in a Space Marine Chapter's own forges, and afterwards they are sent to the Chapter's Armoury until they are needed.
