Acastus Knight Asterius

Imperial Knights datasheet · 1 model — 785 points, 1 model — 860 points

Like its cousin the Porphyrion, the gigantic Acastus Knight Asterius is a relic of a lost technological age. Armed with a pair of twin conversion beam cannons, a karacnos mortar battery and two volkite culverins, the Asterius is capable of sundering the walls of mighty fortresses and clearing ramparts with a hail of high-explosives, its thick armoured hide making it near impervious to weapons fire.
