Helblaster Volley Gun/Helstorm Rocket Battery
The Helblaster Volley Gun is one of the most infamous black-powder weapons ever invented, its devastating firepower able to tear apart an entire regiment in one thunderous volley. The lethal creation of the deranged Engineer von Meinkopt, its terrifying reputation has spread to all corners of the Old World. Its nine separate barrels are divided into three "decks" and are turned by means of a central crank, which means that it can unleash devastating hails of shot that engulf its unfortunate target in a firestorm of leaden death. Even heavily armoured Chaos Warriors can be shredded by a single volley, though with such devastating power comes great risk. Helblaster Volley Guns are notoriously prone to sudden, cataclysmic explosions. As a result, those crewmen who operate a machine so prone to catastrophically blowing them to tiny pieces tend to be paid up with the priests of Morr.
You may include a Helblaster Volley Gun in your Empire army as a Rare Units choice.
After watching the spectacular fireworks of a Cathayan emissary to Altdorf, Master Engineer Herman Faulkstein was inspired to transform this eastern technology into a weapon. His early research blew apart entire laboratories of the College of Engineers while he attempted to discover the secrets of rocket-powered flight, but the permanently soot-blackened Engineer never lost faith that his designs had a military value.
Faulkstein's original rockets were wildly inaccurate; madly corkscrewing weapons that had no chance whatsoever of hitting anything other than (eventually) the ground. Further refinements such as fins, long sticks added to the base of a rocket and a launch carriage to direct the early portion of its flight further improved stability and accuracy though neither were particularly impressive. However, when the rockets did manage to land on target, the results were devastating, with entire enemy regiments blown apart by an earth-shaking cascade of shrieking, explosive rockets. After the Elector Count of Middenland was almost blown to smithereens by an errant volley of rockets (though he was nowhere near the intended target), they were dubbed "Helstorm" rockets after the colourful language used by the count on the unfortunate Engineer.

Empire Flagellants Warband
The terrible plagues and wars of recent years, combined with prophecies of the Lord of the End Times and the doom of the world, has filled the hearts of the Empire's people with despair and hopelessness. In the wake of such calamities come hardship and terror as death stalks the landscape and entire towns are wiped from the face of the Empire. It is small wonder that many of these dispossessed folk go mad from the hopelessness and horror of their situation. To many, the wretched state of the world is seen as proof that its doom is at hand and only by bloody penitence and self-flagellation can it be saved.
When war threatens, bands of crazed Flagellants instinctively gravitate towards battlefields, appearing unannounced and charging headlong towards the enemy without fear or hesitation. Flagellants fight in a crazed frenzy, driven insane by the horrors the world has inflicted upon them and desperate for their pain to end. Heedless of danger and injury, they will fight until each and every one of them is dead, thus vindicating their belief that the end is indeed nigh…
