The Tempest is an Eldar super-heavy grav-tank. Like the Deathstalker, it has not been seen since the days of Epic. The Tempest is armed with an extremely potent double barreled laser cannon which is easily capable of destroying the most heavily armored opponent. Turret mounted shuriken cannon and several shuriken catapults on the hull provide protection against attacking infantry. The sight of a super heavy vehicle on the battlefield is enough to send many troops scurrying for cover.
