===Exterminator=== [[File:RedemptionistExterminator1.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Exterminator.]] By definition, an Exterminator is a very small Flamer which is, in essence, a nozzle attached to a small canister holding enough fuel for a single decent shot before it has to be refilled. The Exterminator is commonly fitted as an attachment to put a dash of extra heat complementing other proper weapons such as Lasguns, Boltguns, Shotguns, Autoguns, and even Eviscerator Chainswords found predominantly within Redemption Cults. There is a significant difference between this and [[Combi-weapon]]s. While the size of the Exterminator makes it a Hand Flamer, its power is no less to that of a regular-sized Flamer. The [[Combi-weapon#Combi-Flamer|Combi-Flamer]], as well, is a Bolter with a regular-sized Flamer welded on. Combi-weapons are properly built or modified arms, permanently attached and robust like most Imperium tech, while Exterminators are assembled by Necromunda Gangs whose work do not exactly leave a good impression compared to the military-grade equipment we usually see. This vast gap in quality means an Exterminator on any weapon can and will eventually break down over a relatively short period of time, and needs to be disposed and replaced by another one of likely similar quality. In a nutshell, making an Exterminator can be compared to putting gasoline into a water gun and somehow attaching what can be considered a pilot light on it to light that gasoline up. Indeed, the Exterminator is not that much different in concept from '''[https://deadrising.fandom.com/wiki/Flamethrower_(Dead_Rising_2) this]'''. The Exterminator is a weapon that just works if you somehow managed to make it so, but definitely not something anyone would rely on in prolonged combat β making a campfire, maybe. Fun fact: Back in late 1944 when it became more and more apparent that Nazi Germany was losing the war, many new weapons, which were designed to be extremely cheap and mass-producible, were put into production in order to arm as many [[Planetary_Defense_Force|hastily-trained conscripts]] as possible. One of these weapons was the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstossflammenwerfer_46 Einstossflammenwerfer 46] (Single-Shot Flamethrower). And judging by descriptions seems almost identical to the Exterminator. <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"> RedemptionistExterminator2.jpg|<center>Redemptionist</center> RedemptionistExterminator3.jpg|<center>Eviscerator Variant</center> KlovisExterminator.jpg|<center>Klovis the Redeemer</center> KlovisTheRedeemerPict.jpg|<center>With Fire</center><center>and Chainsword</center> Catalogue_Exterminator.jpg|<span style='color:green;><center>'''''Posh Exterminator'''''</center> </gallery> |} |} |} </center>
