===Plasma Burner=== [[File:Plasma Burner.png|170px|right|thumb|Plasma Burner]] The Plasma Burner is another fuel to the [[Dark Angels]]' [[/d/|fetish on plasma]] (which we mere mortals will never understand), and this one has an actual fuel canister attached to it like a Flamer. Used during the legion days of the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]], the First Legion had the capability to arm anyone normally equipped with a Plasma Gun with a Plasma Burner instead, though they had dedicated Interemptor squads armed with them exclusively. As the name suggests, [[Awesome|it's a plasma flamethrower.]] While not a new concept β with the Custodians strapping a couple on a fist attached to a behemoth of a Dreadnought called Telemon β it is likely produced in a much greater volume since the [[Interemptor]]s all carry one and the Dark Angels were able to equip them on other units as standard upgrades. The Plasma Burner is a dangerous offshoot of a more common plasma technology. These things vent plasma gas through a magnetic bottle in high-speed jets. Any poor sods getting hit by such a spray is quickly reduced to a molten slag. What do you expect from getting coated in raw plasma? On the other hand, the magnetic fields that keep the super-heated gas contained are actually fragile and emit a low-intensity field of radiation. So what does that mean? On top of the fact they still use Rad Grenades like any good Destroyer Squad, the Interemptors who use them WILL get cancer, that's what it means. On average, they're good for combat only for a few short decades before requiring augmetic replacements and/or straight into the casket, the Dreadnought kind. Interemptors are kinda like Destroyers, and a flamethrower that throws out star fuel certainly sounds like having a decent amount of destruction to it. Appearance-wise, it looks a lot like the Plasma Repeater bit we got from Google above there. However, the fuel canister and the tube feeding said fuel to the mouth of the barrel aside, the barrel of the Plasma Burner does seem similar to the Phased Plasma-Fusil, specifically how the bottom coil is exposed. And as an option, other than a missile launcher, an Interemptor may carry the heavy version of the Plasma Burner. It is not called the Heavy Plasma Burner as one would expect from a Flamer-lookalike. The '''[[Plasma_Incinerator|Plasma Incinerator]]''' is essentially a bigger version of the Plasma Burner, identical in all but the fact that you have to hold it with a chainsaw grip. Aside from the nominal possibility of a more solid relationship between this Plasma Incinerator and the Plasma Incinerators used by the Primaris Space Marines, there is one unit other than the new Interemptors which is most fitting to carrying it one-handed, possibly safely, and a bigger output than what the Hand Flamer size can give β the Cenobium Terminators. The only other weapon that is similar to the Plasma Burner here is the [[Flamer#Splash_Burna|Splash Burna]] used by the Orks, and do note that the thing's from the ''Eternal Crusade'' game. Now, back to the fuel, we can infer that the Plasma Burner is actually a Combi-Plasma-Flamer. The fuel from the canister goes to the end of the barrel where the plasma comes out. And by now the reader should have already noticed that this thing does not have the usual pilot light to light the fuel up. Instead, it seems to be the plasma that's going to light the fuel up. Oh, and do note as well that the Splash Burna does not work that way. The Orks just used their plasma coils to heat up their fuel before discharge. The Plasma Burner here actually discharges plasma with the fire. For all intents and purposes, it is the SPESS MEHREEN's equivalent of the [[Ork|Ork's]] [[Flamer#Skorcha|Skorcha]] with the blowtorch mode permanently enabled, only you know, far more fucking reliable. As you can imagine, [[Powergamer|having the flamer template mix in with the AP bonus of a plasma gun]] sounds fucking ridiculous, just imagine having a squad of these facing off against horde armies; [[Rape|you can kiss those hordes goodbye.]] <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"> InteremptorSquad.png|<center>Interemptors</center> 30kPlasmaIncineratorProfile.png|<center>30k's Plasma Incinerator</center> PlasmaBurnerSideMarine.png|<center>Side View</center> PlasmaBurnerBottom.png|<center>Bottom View</center> </gallery> |} | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Stats |- | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Plasma Burner |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile|range=12"|strength=4|ap=2|type=Assault D3+1, Ignores Cover, Plasma Flame}} |} | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Plasma Incinerator |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile|range=18"|strength=4|ap=2|type=Heavy D3+4, Ignores Cover, Plasma Flame}} |} |} |} |} </center>
