===Grenade Launcher=== [[File:Grenade Launcher.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Grenade Launcher]] The grenade launcher is a light, man-portable weapon capable of firing small explosive charges. It is primarily employed by the Imperial Guard, with almost every trooper squad featuring at least one of them. Grenade launchers are a common weapon used by Imperial Guard infantry squads thanks to their ability to lob grenades greater distances and with more accuracy than can be thrown. Their primary duty is to lay down suppressive fire and destroy light vehicles and buildings. It has a choice of two different payloads, anti infantry Fragmentation grenades, and anti-armour Krak grenades. Space Marines scout bikers utilise a variation of this weapon, the "Astartes pattern" Grenade Launcher. It fires the same rounds, but with an increased rate of fire. Basically just an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_grenade_launcher AGL] but mounted on a bike. Later Cawl's [[Primaris Space Marines|Nu-Marines]] would start following the Guard practice of taking grenade launchers for their rank-and-file, with standard Intercessor Squads often having one or more member carrying an Astartes Grenade Launcher. An [[Ogryn]]-sized M79-like break-action grenade launcher would be introduced in [[Darktide]] and looks very similar to the Ork's [[Thump Gun | Thump Gun]] (even having a similar name). <gallery> File:CadianShockTroopsGrenadeLauncher.png image:ScoutBikeGrenadeLauncher.png|<center>Scout Bike</center> File:Ngh-grenade-launcher.png File:Ngh-grenade-launcher-upgraded.png </gallery>
