===Plasma Obliterator===
[[File:PlasmaObliteratorProfile.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Plasma Obliterator]]
This is the point where the gun is big enough to be worth [[Plasma Obliterator Platform|mounting as an emplacement on a bastion.]]

The Plasma Obliterator is just at about that size. It may be mounted on [[Aquila Strongpoint]]s. These things are really, really rare. Although Plasma weapons are established to be pretty rare on their own, this one has a special garnish on its cake. [[Plasma Obliterator Platform|Aquila Strongpoints with Plasma Obliterators]] installed on were designed by Rogal Dorn during his fortification spree for the Horus Heresy. Because Plasma weapons are pretty good at killing traitor Space Marines, the man himself made sure to pop out some huge varieties on defense lines. Sadly, ten thousand years is a heck of a long time, and the Mechanicus doesn't seem to be building new ones to replace the old ones which were destroyed. Those cogboys are probably more at peace with reserving giant Plasma guns for their God-Machine Titans.

Since the Plasma Obliterator is only about second to the Plasma Annihilator below in terms of sheer power, the size of this cannon might be that of a Plasma Destructor. Plasma Destructors are also kind of short for something that big, and this relatively short cannon fits that criterion as well. Although a Primarch, we don't really hear that much about Dorn's engineering prowess; he probably is not at the same level as Manus and Vulkan. The Plasma Obliterator is less likely a new weapon entirely designed by Dorn, but more of a Plasma Destructor appropriated for fortification by Dorn.

Since Aquila Strongpoints are reserved for things that are big and bold like Macrocannons, the Plasma Obliterator is perhaps also similar to the Plasma Projectors similarly mounted on voidships like said Macrocannons.
