The Graviton Imploder is a type of superheavy Graviton Weapon used by the Adeptus Mechanicus. It is one of the primary hull weapons used by the [[Macrocarid Explorator]]. It is a relatively rare weapon model-wise as the Macrocarid is no longer available on [[Forge World]] and not a lot of people use the model, rather opting for a [[Mauler Bolt Cannon]] for versatility.

The weapon was designed on the Forge World of Tigrus. Also called the 'Tank Crusher', it was a concentrated beam that created a collapsing grav-field which brought down kinetic force proportional to the density and mass of the material it struck. It thus proved effective against heavily armoured foes and vehicles. Crude and power-hungry, the design was deemed blasphemous by some Magos who saw it as a perversion of ancient patterns. However its capabilities proved invaluable during the [[Horus Heresy]].

On the [[Horus Heresy]] tabletop, these are the 40k grav-guns you're used to. Trouble with Terminators? Belial-led Deathwing got you down? Accept no substitute! These are Salvo 2/4 AP2 grav guns, so the roll to wound mirrors the armor save of the target, with 18" range. So now you can have it both ways. It has problems when faced with large blobs with poor/no armour, but those things are generally easily killed by everything else, so it balances out.
