Fellblade
The Fellblade was a super heavy tank used by the Space Marines during the Great Crusade. Based on the same STC as the Baneblade and Deathhammer, it formed a mainstay of the Space Marine Legion heavy armored brigades during the Great Crusade.[1][3]
The Fellblade was most notable for its use of both Mechanicum atomantic arc-reactor technology and a reinforced metaplas alloy chassis superior to that of the Baneblade. It mounted an Accelerator Cannon as its primary weapon and would also take to the field equipped with a suite of secondary weapons: a demolisher cannon, sponson-mounted quad-lascannons or laser destroyers, hull-mounted twin-linked heavy flamers or heavy bolters, and a variety of pintle-mounted weapons.[3]

Glaive
The Glaive Super-heavy Special Weapons Tank was a variant of the Fellblade, armed with a volkite carronade, designed to destroy xenos beasts and enemy light vehicles. Though all eighteen Legiones Astartes received limited quantities of Glaives, the Salamanders and Dark Angels were noted to operate them more regularly.[4]
