A Wraithcannon

A Wraithcannon is an Eldar vortex weapon of deadly potency similar to the D-Cannon.[1]

Overview

Wielded by a Wraithguard and powered by the psychic energy of its spirit stone, the Wraithcannon opens a small temporary rift between real and warp space, tearing apart its target as it is torn between different dimensions. However, unlike the D-Cannon the Wraithcannon is more tightly controlled and accurate.[1][2] Wraithcannons are generally so fiendish that no mortal (only Wraithguard) could wield them[4], but in practice Eldar Corsairs sometimes bear them into battle.

Heavy Wraithcannon

The Heavy Wraithcannon is an enlarged version of the standard Wraithcannon wielded by colossal Wraithknights.[3]
