Crucible Guard Assault Troopers

Assault troopers are the Crucible Guard’s dedicated melee infantry. Relying on their armor to allow them to reach enemy positions, these soldiers carry only oversized thermal hammers as weapons. If not for the protection of specialized armor, the thermal hammer would inflict painful burns on its wielder. The heat ripples the air and flash-ignites any combustible materials within several feet, including anything struck by the weapon’s heavy striking surface.

Assault Troopers are the elite melee infantry of the Crucible Guard. While these heavy hitters are more than capable of dishing out serious damage on their own, models that specifically increase their accuracy and hitting power, such as the warcasters Syvestro (PIP 37002) or Baldwin Gearheart (PIP 37015), really turn up the heat.
