	The Osiron Class Dreadnought was a type of Contemptor used by the [[Thousand Sons]]. These dreadnoughts were created by [[Magnus]] himself, and consisted of a mortally wounded psyker Space Marine laced with a psychometric barrier for his brain. Called the Osiron device, this allowed psykers to be interred in a Dreadnought without going insane, as well as still having full access to their psychic abilities.

The Osiron Class Dreadnought was a type of Contemptor used by the [[Thousand Sons]]. These dreadnoughts were created by [[Magnus]] himself, and consisted of a mortally wounded psyker Space Marine laced with a psychometric barrier for his brain. Called the Osiron device, this allowed psykers to be interred in a Dreadnought without going insane, as well as still having full access to their psychic abilities.

As such, these Dreadnoughts were equipped with Force Weapons. Think of them as the [[Doomglaive Dreadnought]] of the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]]. Essentially speaking, Magnus had psychic dreadnoughts [[Librarian Dreadnought|before it was cool]]. Magnus, [[This Guy|being the bro that he was,]] even gave the schematics of the Osiron device to all of the other Space Marine Legions, though it would appear only the [[Blood Angels]] and [[Grey Knights]] ever made use of it.

==Tabletop==

In the [[Horus Heresy]] tabletop, the Osiron Dreadnought are your Elite Contemptors which can unload a psychic shitstorm. These precursors to the 40k Librarian Dreadnought cost around an extra 50 points, and gives each dread ML1 (with access to Telekinesis, Telepathy, Pyromancy, and Divination), Adamantium Will, and a snazzy new Force Weapon and Asphyx Shells. The Force Blade itself is a Strength x2, AP 2 monstrous Force Weapon. Have fun dicing TEQs for breakfast.
