===Inferno Pistol=== [[File:InfernusPistolProfile.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Infernus Pistol]] This microwave blowtorch is where the Imperium of Man's mass production capability reaches its limits in the Melta category. Inferno Pistols are those rare Melta weapons where you only need one hand to fire out the heat. Where miniaturization is concerned, the Imperium has not sorted out the cost issue of this weapon just yet compared to other pistol-scaled weaponry such as the [[Bolter#Bolt_Pistol|Bolt Pistol]] and the [[Flamer#Hand_Flamer|Hand Flamer]]. Notable users of these blowtorches are the [[Sisters of Battle]] and the [[Blood Angels]], both of which having a pretty high affinity for burning stuff. The Blood Angels in particular seem to make their own in-house called the '''Infernus Pistol'''. [[Sanguinius]] used one in conjunction with his [[Power_weapon#Power_Sword|Power Sword]] for close combat, and his eldest living non-Dreadnought son to date, [[Dante]], currently wields an Artificer Infernus Pistol known as ''Perdition Pistol''. With their latest codex, the Inferno Pistol is now at home with the Blood Angels and available to a variety of their assault specialized units. Of course, the Inquisition and the Deathwatch have access to Inferno Pistols; specifically the [[Ordo Hereticus]] for the Inquisition, those [[Hats|big-hatted pastors]] love nothing more than the look on your face when they one-shot your (probably heretical) Leman Russ. The Deathwatch has a variant called a Conflagration Pistol, which is one of the coolest names in all of 40K. It trades some ammo capacity for anti-armor punch. Dudes who came from the Salamanders love it. Despite the fact that they used both these and Hand Flamers during that one [[Horus Heresy|heresy]], the [[Salamanders]] [[Derp|don't get them in regular 40k]]. Curiously, [[Chaos Space Marines]] had access to them in [[Dawn of War|Dawn of War 2]] despite never using them on tabletop, [[Wat|while the loyalists don't]] (the [[Ordo Hereticus]] [[Inquisitor]] hero of the [[Imperial Guard]] can get one as an anti-armor weapon though). If you upgrade them to the Mark of [[Khorne]], their Aspiring Champion gets one to make them slightly better at chasing and taking down light vehicles. The Chaos Champion boss in the Exterminatus of Typhon mission of Retribution's campaign also wields one [[Awesome|which he fires point blank several times into the maw of a Carnifex in a sync-kill]]. <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"> SisterOfBattleInfernoPistol.jpg|<center>Sisters of Battle</center> SoBInfernoPistolNew.png|<center>Sisters of Battle</center> InquisitorInfernoPistol.png|<center>Inquisitor</center> BloodAngelsSergeantInfernoPistol.jpg|<center>Blood Angels</center> DeathCompanyInfernoPistol.jpg|<center>Death Company</center> ChaplainInfernusPistol.png|<center>Infernus Pistol</center> SanguinaryGuardInfernoPistol.png|<center>Sanguinary Guard</center> InfernusPistolDiagram.jpg|<center>''[[Dante]]'s''</center> </gallery> |} | {|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="background: white;" |+style="white-space: nowrap;" | Stats |- | {{40k-Ranged-Weapon-Profile-7-8|r7=6"|s7=8|ap7=1|type7=Pistol, Melta|r8=6"|s8=8|ap8=-4|d8=D6|type8=Pistol 1|abil8=If target within half range, roll two dice for damage and discard the lowest result.}} |} |} |} </center>
