SPACE MARINE LAND RAIDER

The Land Raider is one of the most potent machines of destruction in the Imperium. Space Marines and Space Marine Terminators may use the Land Raider as a transport.
The Land Raider is ideally suited to the highly mobile warfare employed by the Adeptus Astartes. Like Space Marines, the heavily armoured Land Raider is capable of fighting in almost any conditions, including extremes of climate, total vacuums and high gravity worlds. The Land Raider offers vital protection and transport for a squad of Space Marines, and has enough heavy weaponry to lay down considerable supporting fire once it has dropped its passengers at the battle zone.
The Land Raider is based upon the near-mythical Standard Template Construct (STC) technology, and as such its design pre-dates the Imperium by many thousands of years. Its rediscovery is commonly attributed to the great Technomagus Arkhan Land at the very birth of the Imperium. When the Imperial Land Raider first saw combat is now a matter of much debate amongst Imperial archaeologists. Some claim it was during the Siege of Delebrion that a Land Raider first fired its lascannons in anger, others point towards the massed tank battles of Calysto Platinum and say that the Land Raider drew first blood during the mighty conflict that raged over that world at the start of the Emperor’s Great Crusade.
When the Chaos Legions fled into the Eye of Terror they took with them hundreds of these precious machines. Now, whenever the legions issue forth on another Black Crusade these same Land Raiders are ever in the vanguard, demonstrating that even after ten thousand years there is no better engine of destruction.
A Space Marine Land Raider may be included in your Space Marines army as a Heavy Support choice.
