'''Cyclonic Torpedoes''' are a category of [[Torpedo]] utilized by the [[Imperium]] for orbital bombardment of a planet once [[Exterminatus]] has been invoked. A wide variety of weapons fit the definition of cyclonic torpedoes, and employ varying means of scouring the world's surface, from nucleonic fire to raw plasma.{{Fn|1}} Whatever their method of destruction, the effect of cyclonic torpedoes is the same: the complete destruction of all life on the planet, its atmosphere burned away in a storm of fire and its oceans boiled to vapour, leaving it a barren rock.{{Fn|2}}
