Harnessing the destructive energies of forge worlds within their weaponry, the Vanguard are so soaked in radiation that even to approach them is to confer a death sentence upon yourself. Victory for them is pyrrhic, as this radiation burns through even their heavy armour plate, slowly poisoning them to death even as their carbines bring about the (much quicker) demise of their enemies.

Skitarii Vanguard, featuring helmets and rebreathers, obliterate foes with radium carbines. Each trooper is sealed in heavy, industrialised Skitarii warplate, emblazoned with the symbol of the Adeptus Mechanicus, bristling with data-collecting sensors, antennae and environmental monitors. Mindful of the harsh terrain of Mars, their legs have been removed from the knees down, with bionic replacements lending each model an air of cold, cybernetic augmentation.

The unit can include an Alpha, armed with either a radium or arc pistol and a close combat weapon (either a power sword, taser goad or arc maul) and three models can carry special weapons - available to you are a transuranic arquebus, an arc rifle and a plasma caliver, the last of which includes a specific head and backpack. One model can be made into an Alpha, fitted with an enhanced data-tether or an omnispex - the box truly portrays the compulsive data-gathering nature of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

This multi-part plastic kit contains everything needed to make either ten Skitarii Rangers or ten Skitarii Vanguard. Included in the box are 124 components - twenty-three heads, twelve of which are variants on the Vanguard helmet/rebreather, twenty-five weapons, a small transfer sheet and ten 25mm round bases.

When the Adeptus Mechanicus goes to war the Skitarii Vanguard make up the bulk of its armed forces. Like all Skitarii, their legs (and often other limbs) are amputated upon recruitment and replaced with cybernetics. Eyelids are cut off and replaced with targeting reticules and salve-filled goggles, lungs are connected to rebreathers and chemical filters and organs are upgraded, replaced or removed entirely to enable the Skitarii to fight in the most hazardous war zones.

Clad in ancient-looking Skitarii warplate, the Vanguard troopers are armed with radium carbines. If the radioactive bullets they fire don’t kill the enemy, the sheer weight of fire and radioactive material can create a localised rad-storm, leaving the enemy dead, dying or severely weakened by the experience.
