The Waldheim Dragoons, an armored mercenary regiment, use the missile-armed A2 variant of the Icarus M2 blower tank – the same vehicle that equips the Slammers regiment, but with different armament. These are supported by the lighter M56 Daedalus medium tank, along with two slightly different air-defense variants. These models came out in 15mm last year, today we're following with the 6mm versions.
The Daedalus is a speedy hover tank, armed with a 10cm powergun and a 2cm tribarrel on the commander's hatch. The M564 Calliope carries no fewer than four linked tribarrel gatlings, which in Crucible terms amounts to a massive twelve shots per turn! The M562 variant has the same turret as the M564, but is armed with two rapid-fire lasers (still amounting to eight shots per turn) and a pair of Manta light missiles for taking on more heavily armored targets.
Crucible playsheets for the Waldheim Dragoons can be found on the Hammer's Slammers website – hammers-slammers.com – (along with many others).
