The Stormblade is an Imperial Guard super-heavy vehicle and is formed as a variant to the Shadowsword. It still follows the same role as the Shadowsword, as a titan hunter, but it is produced by worlds without access to the required technology to produce the Volcano Cannon. Instead, it is armed with a Plasma Blastgun. It was first developed on Ryza, helped by that world's amazing understanding of plasma technology.
The Stormblade lacks the targeters and range of the Shadowsword, but makes up for it by mounting Lascannons on the sponsons, along with Heavy Bolters. The combined power of these weapons is enough to smash apart any target easily. The advanced design of the Plasma Blastgun means that it will not overheat, probably due to the increased space available for ventilation compared with the more common smaller, hand-held versions.
