Matt posted an article yesterday following the leaked images of a new tank coming from Forge World for the Primaris Space Marines.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, it is official, as Warhammer Community today have posted an article on the upcoming vehicle.

Check out its trailer below. Check out the size of that thing!

They have also linked the following two images:

While comments suggest the style of this tank is getting a mixed reception, I for one am very impressed. It is certainly a statement piece for any Space Marine army.

Zero transport capability, however it is stacked with weapons. The following quote is from Warhammer Community’s article:

An enormous hull mounts a devastating range of defensive and offensive systems. The main weapons of the Astraeus Super-heavy tank are a pair of macro-accelerator cannons, coupled with sponson-mounted las-rippers or plasma eradicators. The macro-accelerator cannons are particularly powerful, firing 12 shots with -2 AP and 3 Damage apiece!

You can view the full release article here. Apparently we won’t need to wait very long, and as is the case nowadays the rules will be free to download.

What do you think of its looks? Excited? Let us know in the comments below or via one of our social media channels. We’d love to hear your thoughts!
