*'''Griffon Mortar:''' The Griffon Mortar was the general support vehicle for Guard in 2nd edition, and for most intents and purposes was similar to the mortar you may remember from later editions. However, the key was the fact that it had three different fire modes. Frag shells were a Strength 3" blast radius, Inferno Shells were Strength 5 and could set stuff on fire, but only had a 2" blast radius, but the Griffon's most notable ammunition type were [[Awesome|Melta Shells]]. Yes, you read that right: Back in 2nd ed, the Guard decided that Meltabombs were good and all, but they needed to be delivered by artillery. Needless to say, this gives the Griffon all-purpose utility that it lacks in later editions.
