Infernus

The successors to Vulkan's lost pyrophilia.

Infernus or Infernus Squads are a new batch of Primaris Pyromaniacs who grew intensely inspired by the Black Templar Initiates and their Pyreblasters. So now every Primaris Chapter is lugging around a couple of these badboys, which is perfect timing anyways given who has been making their presence known lately.

Overview

Well, treat these guys as your dedicated close-range assault units. These guys are your pyros, so they like to get in close and dirty; making them pretty specialised as a result. They are reserved for large-scale horde clearing and, against Tyranids, are their biggest bane. However, their close-ranged weapons makes them vulnerable to enemy snipers or artillery, and they don't have the cool jetpacks that other close-assault Space Marine units can help mitigate their weaknesses.

Like their Black Templar senpais, almost all of them wield a Pyreblaster as their standard issue. For secondaries, they carry a Bolt Pistol, a combat knife for melee, and frag and krak grenades. Squad leaders carry a Heavy Bolt Pistol and a Combi-Flamer instead. All of them wear the standard-issue Mark X: Tacticus Pattern Armour.
