===Flamestorm Gauntlet=== [[File:FlameGauntlet.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Flamestorm Gauntlet]] Like its more [[Dakka]] version, the [[Bolter#Boltstorm Gauntlet|Boltstorm Gauntlet]], the Flamestorm Gauntlet is a type of Flamer weapon used by [[Primaris Marines|Primaris Space Marine]] [[Aggressor|Aggressor Squads]]. The Flamestorm Gauntlet, as mentioned, is similar to the Boltstorm Gauntlet, replacing the Bolter with a Flamer. As such, it also bears a strong resemblance and function to Roboute Guilliman's famed weapon Hand of Dominion as well as Marneus Calgar's Gauntlets of Ultramar. Unsurprisingly, the Flamestorm specializes in bathing large mobs of infantry in fire whereas the Boltstorm is more for crowd control. The Flamestorm Gauntlet is used if other Primaris troops such as [[Hellblaster|Hellblasters]] are caught too hot in CQC and a much needed punch is needed to soften the blow. They are so hot, the shoulder pads of the Aggressors who use them have to be made even bigger with additional blast shields to protect them from the heat. Should one wonder why a heavy Power Armour needs further protection for a Flamer weapon when normal Space Marines in normal Power Armour can use Flamers just fine β perhaps the Flamestorm is '''that''' dangerously hot for even a Primaris Marine in Gravis Armour, or it just fogs up the visor and Cawl thinks a windshield wiper will look stupid. The first assumption is likely when one considers that its name corresponds to a much, much bigger Flamer weapon on this page. Cawl probably managed to make the Flamestorm relatively hot enough to deserve the moniker. Furthermore, despite the pitiful range on a unit that relies on overwhelming firepower at a distance, the Aggressors are still Terminator-esque infantry; so trying to charge at one knowing full well that these guys carry a [[Rape|2D6 Flamer]] [[Anal Circumference|<u>''on both hands''</u>]] is bound to spell a terrible end to whatever mook not enclosed in centimeters-thick ceramite. <center> {|class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="background: white;" |+ class="nowrap" style="white-space: nowrap"|'''Profile''' |- | {|align=center border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=10 |- | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;"| Gallery |- |<gallery class="center"> FlamestormGauntlet.jpg|<center>Close-up View</center> FlamestormGauntletBack.jpg|<center>Back View</center> ShortFlamestormGuantlet.jpg|<center>Short Barrel Variant(?)</center> FlamestormGauntletPict.jpg|<center>Demonstration</center> PrimarisAggressorShoulderplate.jpg|<center>Blast Shielding</center> PrimarisAggressorShoulderplate2.jpg|<center>Regular Variant for Comparison</center> </gallery> |} | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Stats |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile-8|range=8"|strength=4|type=Assault 2D6|abilities=Automatically hits target.}} |} |} |} </center>
