Overview
The Astraeus has an enormous hull, that mounts a devastating range of defensive and offensive systems. Its main weapons are a pair of Macro-Accelerator Cannons, which are coupled with sponson-mounted Las-Rippers or Plasma Eradicators, turret-mounted Heavy Stubber, and twin-linked Heavy Bolters or Lascannons mounted on the front of the vehicle. It is protected by layered void shields and is held aloft by powerful anti-gravitic generators, which are powerful deterrents to enemy assault units. Unlike the Repulsor, the Astraeus does not have any transport capacity – instead, this colossal machine is dedicated to destruction alone. While there are few targets that can stand up to one of the Astraeus Super-heavy Tank's furious fusillades, it particularly excels at shooting down aircraft.[1]
