During the ancient Ban of Prejudice, the Espaten was a powerful tool for support in the street fights which raged in underground cities across the Precinct. In recent years, the original gun has been present in all campaigns, and it has been broadened as well. To deal with Battlesuits and larger infantry formations, as well as indirect fire missions, there are now six variants. These are the same weapon systems as used by the new Havelock Type 57 being rolled out to Muster Regiments right now.

Now that we have restored all of the original 28mm Ion Age range codes in the Prydian Army, and added motive units to the existing gun platform, as well as new gun teams for Retained Knights and Planetary Militia, we have five, yes five, further portable weapon platforms now released. These five take the 28mm range into line with the 15mm Ion Age range for portable weapons. The new codes are:
IB72 – Moth 88 Rotary Espaten Portable Weapon (Platform Kit)
IB73 – Angis Cannon Espaten Portable Weapon (Platform Kit)
IB74 – Bodkin Howitzer Espaten Portable Weapon (Platform Kit)
IB75 – Valerin Laser Espaten Portable Weapon (Platform Kit)
IB76 – Fretan Railgun Espaten Portable Weapon (Platform Kit)
Each kit has a built-in saving of 10%, as all the value packs in the range do. They are composed of resin and metal pieces, and are easy to assemble, being approximately 50mm by 40mm and 25mm tall. They will go with any of the gun teams in the range.
Move your guns on the battlefield using IB77 Tracked Espaten Propulsion Unit or IB78 Anti Gravity Espaten Propulsion Unit. These fit all the weapon platforms.
For those wanting serious numbers with an excellent saving of two miniatures included free, then check out the Platoon Packs which we have for Retained Knights, Muster, Grima Combat Robots, Legionaries, Betrayers, and Malig Goblins.
This is the first of two big release announcements for the 28mm Ion Age range this month. Keep your eyes peeled for the second… when the Khanate get their even bigger turn.
