The Flash Gitz called. They want their guns back.

"Fire missiles! Fire again! Fire them all!"

"Uh... brothers, what's a backblast?"

– Desolation Primaris Marine

The Desolator Desolation Squads are the newest addition to the Primaris roster as of Strike Force Agastus. Following the traditions of the Eldar, this primaris unit takes an idea off of the Dark Reapers and somehow outderped them in terms of design and usability. It would only be so long until the Orks inspired someone else for once, though the Infernus Heavy Bolter was probably designed on a similar basis.

Overview

The Desolation Squad has been directly compared to the Devastator Squads of the firstborn marines, being the ones that carry the heavy weapons (albeit limited to explosives, with the other weapons the Devastators use being covered by Heavy Intercessors, Hellblasters with Heavy Plasma Incinerators, Eradicators, and Eliminators with las-fusils). Their heavy weapon of choice is a hilarious-looking Castellan Launcher which can be fired indirectly as well as a selection of sub-weapons ranging from the Superfrag Rocket Launcher and the Superkrak Rocket Launcher. Their sergeant is equipped with a Vengor Launcher that allows it to indirectly attack at enemies when your other troops can’t target them. What makes them so super? Well, maybe the 10th edition codex will tell us. It's probably related to the Hammerfall Bunker's weapons.
