New from Forgeworld this week, and available for pre-order is the Thanatar heavy Siege-Automata. Its available now for pre-order and will be dispatched Monday, June 30th.

We saw the Thanatar earlier this year at Forgeworld's Open Day, and finally we are seeing this high anticipated release for the Mechanicum forces.

The Thanatar is a heavy Siege-automata, designed as a mobile artillery platform rather than a general battle unit. It is armed with a Hellex pattern plasma mortar, a terrifying weapon able to launch dense spheres of blazing plasma on arcing trajectories over defensive barriers and into the heart of enemy fortifications, incinerating anything in their blast radius with a liquid tide of sun-hot fire.

The Thanatar’s frame, built to accommodate the huge weapon and the power systems and fuel reserves required to supply it, is considerably larger than even the hulking Castellax. Its frame is also heavily reinforced, both to withstand the stresses of firing its principal weapon and protect it from incoming attacks. This factor, alongside the use of an atomantic shielding array, make Thanatars notoriously durable, and such is their resilience they are beyond the ability of most small arms, no matter how advanced, to harm.
