Breaching Squad MkIII

Legiones Astartes Breacher Squad - miniatures and wargaming

Deployed into the most dangerous combat zones, Breacher Squads excel in boarding actions and assaults on fortifications. Built for shock, these Space Marines use heavy boarding shields to absorb enemy fire, breaching charges and laser cutters to open bulkheads and destroy fortified positions. Ideal for wargaming and miniature hobbyists, this kit is aimed at Legiones Astartes commanders in Warhammer: The Horus Heresy, and will also appeal to collectors of Warhammer 40K and roleplaying miniatures.

Warhammer: The Horus Heresy plastic kit - content and Space Marine model options

This set assembles into 10 Breacher Legionnaires, veterans of close combat. With their boarding shields and one-handed bolters, they push into the worst kill zones where standard Tactical Legionnaires would be cut down. Add solid resilience and short-range firepower to your force without sacrificing the tactical flexibility essential to wargaming.

The kit includes parts to build an optional Sergeant with two heads (bare or helmeted), who can be armed with a power sword, a power gauntlet or a Lightning Claw, plus an optional fusion bomb. You will also find a Legionnaire with nuncio-vox, one with vexillum and one with an augury scanner. To vary the armament, one Legionnaire can be fitted with a graviton rifle and another with a laser cutter. Interchangeable accessories (grenades, holsters, pouches) further enhance customization of your Space Marine miniatures.

With no pre-printed Legion markings, these miniatures fit into any Legiones Astartes army, whether loyal to the Emperor or pledged to Horus. The Legiones Astartes Infantry decal sheet provides 618 high-quality transfers, including symbols for the Iron Warriors, Sons of Horus, Salamanders and Imperial Fists, as well as numbers, honour markings, generic markings, lettering and command icons.

The boxed set contains 249 plastic components and 10 Citadel 32 mm round bases. The miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly - use of Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints is recommended for optimal results. Perfect for fans of tabletop wargaming, Warhammer 40K and wargames.

Painting and modelling - Citadel, Army Painter, Vallejo

To bring your Space Marine miniatures to life, choose appropriate Warhammer miniature paints: Citadel (base, shade, layer) for accurate Legion schemes, supplemented as needed by Vallejo and Army Painter paints. Citadel brushes, Gamers Grass textures and Green Stuff World tools make diorama work and customization easier. Whether you are preparing a force for Warhammer: The Horus Heresy or expanding your Warhammer 40K miniature collection, these models are an ideal base for wargaming, painting and collecting.
