===Plasma Blaster===
[[File:HHPlasmaBlaster.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Plasma Blaster]]
The Plasma Blaster is an ancient weapon, and it's really ancient. Sure this weapon goes back to the Great Crusade, but '''''[[meme|what if we told you]]... [[Warhammer 40,000 2nd edition|it goes way back to 2nd Edition?]]'''''

At that time, the Plasma Blaster is essentially a Combi-weapon that is two Plasma Guns joined together. It is not a linked weapon, which means you do not fire both of them at the same time, but one at a time. And because of the massive power drain, the Terminator Armor with its bigger power pack is the perfect candidate to carry it. A Plasma Blaster was wielded by Saul Invictus, Captain of the Ultramarines 1st Company, before he was nommed by the Tyranids (''Rest in Pieces'') and [[Severus Agemman]] took his place, but sadly not his Plasma Blaster. The Plasma Blaster was later revamped into a Great Crusade / Horus Heresy era weapon-relic depending on which millennium you're in.

During the Horus Heresy, one may find Terminators carrying them – mostly [[Tartaros Pattern Terminator Armour|Tartaros]] – and [[Contemptor Dreadnought|Contemptor Dreadnoughts]] having one installed in their claw. Though the range is rather short compared to standard Plasma Guns, the higher rate of fire the Plasma Blaster affords gives it a tactical edge when engaging in assaults. What differentiates this "Combi-Plasma" from other Combi-Plasmas is that this thing is literally two fully-functional Plasma Guns that can last the entire battle or more if you still have flasks left, while the Plasma Guns fitted to general Combi-weapons are only worth a single shot. Naturally, you are wondering why the combi-plasma doesn't just take a plasma-blaster (or combi-bolter or stormbolter) and replace one of the boltguns with an actual plasmagun or even plasma pistol or even just put the ammo outside of the attachment instead of inside so you can reload a combi-plasma in combat easily. The reason is that GW has to gimp the Imperium as much as possible with sheer stupidity or else they wouldn't have a grimdark setting and their itchy ball sacks would never get that sadistic scratch they crave.

May or may not actually be based on the [[Plasma#Plasma_Repeater|Plasma Repeater]] of the [[Dark Angels]], which is a similar and (''likely'') much older weapon used in the same age.
