Maatith Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hey guys, the Astra Militarum have always been a bit of a gap in my 40k knowledge, and I am hoping you can help me out. I am aware that the Death Korps of Krieg make use of limited infantry-deployed chemical weapons in the forms of gas canisters and otherwise prohibited shotgun shells, and that a wide number of regiments deploy Devil Dog tanks. However, are there any instances in the lore of post-Imperial Army mortal forces deploying large scale chemical or rad forces, or similarly amoral and potentially self-destructive weapons? Thanks!

brother_b Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Well, the penal legion used to have human bombs. Definitely old school 40K and nowadays not PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HallofStovokor Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 The deathstrike missile launcher is essentially a nuclear missile. Penal legions are amoral in many ways. The banewolf is a tank that spits a toxic soup out. The Mechanicus uses radium carbines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamansky Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Moral? There's a war of extermination going on, son. There won't be any tribunal held upon 'war-criminals', because there won't be a side that lost. Simply and literally will not be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
