Astra Militarum datasheet · 1 model — 115 points, 1 model — 135 points

Basilisks are self-propelled artillery tanks, armed with a fearsome earthshaker cannon. Able to keep pace with infantry advances – their barrels levelled for direct fire – or deploy to rear positions from which they unleash relentless shelling, Basilisks are amongst the most numerous of the Imperial Guard’s ordnance tanks.
