Not to be confused with the Arachnus Heavy Blaze Cannon.

The Arachnus Heavy Lascannon Battery was a Laser Weapon system that was used by the ancient [[Dreadnought#Deredeo Pattern|Deredeo Pattern Dreadnoughts]] of the Legiones Astartes during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]] eras. As one might expect, it is developed by Arachnus which also produce the Blaze Cannons used by everyone's favourite [[Adeptus Custodes|golden bananas.]]

The Arachnus Heavy Lascannon Battery was a set of two massive, twin-linked [[Lascannon]]s that has been suped-up and overcharged, taking up both the Deredeo's weapon mounts.

Far more powerful than any other pattern of Lascannon regularly fielded by the Legiones Astartes, the Arachnus could inflict devastating amounts of damage with each hit, far more than any standard Las-weaponry.

The Arachnus Heavy Lascannon Battery is still found in use by the various Space Marine Chapters and possibly the Traitor Legions that still maintain functioning Deredeo Dreadnoughts in the 41st Millennium.

On the tabletop, one must remember that this isn't twin-linked Lascannon, but it does fire 2 S10 AP2 shots, and if its shots score a penetrating hit on a vehicle the shot has a 50% chance of having it count as [[Awesome|''two'' penetrating hits instead of one.]]
