===Sabre Weapons Battery=== [[File:Sabre_Gun_Platform.JPG|200px|right|thumb|Sabre Weapons Battery]] Yet another weapons platform used by the Imperial Guard, usually for light air or ground defense at important assets or locations. Two Guardsmen are needed to crew the platform, which features dual heavy weapon mounts able to be fitted with standard Imperial Guard weapons for ease of supply and maintenance, although the actual model only showed one guardsman. The Sabre (aka the Sabre Gun Platform) shares the same leg mounts as a Tarantula, but instead uses a crew of Guardsman to fight rather than a machine spirit. The platform along with its weapon mount can rotate a full 360 degrees and features built-in auto-stabilizers to reduce recoil and improve accuracy of its mounted weapons. Its light structure means it can be easily disassembled and repositioned on the field, but not while under fire. Because of this, Sabre teams are expected to hold the line even against overwhelming odds. As they often form the last line of defense for a failing Imperial campaign, assignment to a Sabre is seen as a [[Grimdark|death sentence]]. Its primary armament is either quad [[Heavy Stubber|Heavy Stubbers,]] twin-linked [[Lascannon|Lascannons,]] twin-linked [[Heavy Bolter|Heavy Bolters,]] twin-linked [[Autocannon|Autocannons,]] or the most useless and suicidal of all, [[FAIL|a goddamned fucking searchlight]], I mean yeah sure, you could illuminate targets during night fighting, but that's as far as you could go. However, they are most often used as a form of anti-air defense, so tend to most commonly be seen with quad heavy stubbers. <gallery> File:SabreGunPlatform01.jpg|Heavy Stubber Sabre File:SabreAutocannon.JPG|Autocannon Sabre File:SabreHeavyBolter.JPG|Heavy Bolter Sabre File:SabreLascannon.JPG|Lascannon Sabre File:SabreSpotlight.JPG|Searchlight Sabre </gallery>
