But that was very recent so you might still have a chance at finding one,Īlso, I should note that the Tech-priest Dominus (the hunched over guy) is not technically part of a Skitarii force he's from the Cult Mechanicus codex that, due to GW's marketing, is considered a separate book. The reason I say "if" is because it just recently sold out on the website and at a few locations, so you'll have to get lucky. If you get that you effectively have every kit from the Skitarii line. It is a price they willingly pay, for their devotion to the Machine God is absolute.If you can find a Skitarii Battle Maniple at your local store or something, that is a good investment. The Vanguard themselves are theoretically safe inside their war plate, but on the rare occasions these warriors unscrew their helmets, the sight of their missing teeth and hairless, sore-pocked skin tells the awful truth. So much radiation bleeds out from a Skitarii Vanguard's wargear that foes in close proximity become weakened and fatigued for non-Skitarii to be stationed in the same barracks is a death sentence. Over the many civil wars waged by the Cult Mechanicus, the Vanguard have learned to endure and weaponise their lethal radioactive emissions. Should their foes survive the worst of the shooting, critical levels of rad-poisoning may still be achieved by the very proximity of the Skitarii Vanguard, who will look on in silent interest as an enemy that thought the worst was over stumbles, chokes, and dies of radiation poisoning. Their baroque carbines fill the air around their foe with harmful emanations, corrupting the atmosphere itself even as they punch hyper-irradiated shot into the flesh of their victims. Skitarii VanguardEquipped with pack generators that bleed potent radioactive by-products, these Omnissian martyrs are so saturated with radiation that even to approach them is to succumb to their peculiar curse.
