Shroud Bomb

Space Marines Portal

Shroud Bombs were weapons used by the Space Marines during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. These canister weapons unleashed a grey fog of smoke and multi-spectrum electromagnetic charge that foiled enemy scanning devices. They were used as concealing and defensive weapons.^[1]

This class of grenade is one of the most eclectic, ranging from high-tech disruptors, to chaff dispensers and even simple smoke bombs, yet all with the same purpose: to hide the users from the enemy.^[2]
