40k Unboxing – Legion Glaive Lord of War
Enemy monsters giving you a fuss? Checkout the Legion Glaive, beast exterminator!
This Glaive is a relatively new tank that does work on both enemy formations and light armor assets.
It’s of course a variant to the Fellblade (Space Marine Baneblade), and is basically the same chassis with a different turret.
But it’s a great model rules wise, and an awesome display piece as well for any Astartes army!
The Kit
Legion Fell Glaive is available for 159 pounds (~$264) from Forge World.
The Glaive Super-heavy Special Weapons Tank is a variant of the Fellblade. Armed with a Volkite Carronade, it is designed to destroy xenos beasts and incinerate enemy light vehicles at a single sweep.
While the Glaive has been issued to all eighteen Legiones Astartes in limited quantities, the Salamanders and Dark Angels have long been noted to field Glaives as a matter of course; the XVIIIth Legion’s artifice is more than sufficient to maintain and replicate the arcane Volkite technology, while the provenance and honour of the Ist Legion means that their war matériel and weaponry are ancient indeed.
The Legion Glaive, designed by Stuart Williamson, is a multi-part resin and plastic kit that is packed with detail. Please note that the doors used on the hull for this model are Space Marine Rhino sized side doors.
