Games Workshop Warhammer 30k Legiones Astartes Predator Battle Tank | Deimos Pattern

Overview

Step into the brutal elegance of the Warhammer 30k universe with the Legiones Astartes Predator Battle Tank. This multipart plastic kit builds a Deimos-pattern predator, a versatile armored centerpiece designed to adapt on the field. Supplied unpainted and unassembled, the model invites hobbyists to plan, assemble, and then bring its details to life with paints and glues of choice.

Customization and play options

The Predator’s layout supports a wide range of tactical styles. The main turret can be configured with one of four primary weapons, letting you tailor firepower to your expectations of battle:

• Rapid-fire Predator cannon
• Gravis lascannon for heavy anti-armor shots
• Volkite macro-saker for concentrated long-range fire
• Graviton cannon for battlefield control

To increase versatility, the kit includes sponson options so you can defend against multiple threats without sacrificing your core weaponry:

• Heavy bolters
• Heavy flamers
• Lascannons
• Volkite culverins

Additional upgrades expand its role on the table. Choose from pintle-mounted weapons (havoc launcher, heavy bolter, heavy flamer, multi-melta, or a five-configuration combi-weapon), plus practical extras like a searchlight, a dozer blade, and a hunter-killer missile. Cosmetic touches such as towing hooks and sigils help you personalize the model’s identity.

Contents and assembly

The kit comprises 104 plastic components and includes a Legiones Astartes Vehicle Transfer Sheet with 44 optional markings and icons for the Sons of Horus and Imperial Fists Legions. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. For best results, consider Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints to achieve a durable finish and crisp surface details.

Why this kit stands out

The Predator’s modular design supports strategic planning and social hobby sessions, letting you coordinate with teammates on build and paint plans. With multiple upgrade paths and a detailed transfer sheet, you can create a distinctive model that reflects your tactical preferences. While the kit emphasizes versatility and presence, it also rewards patience with a dramatic silhouette and finely etched surface details—ideal for display, narrative play, or skirmish scenarios.

Additional notes

Whether you assemble for a display piece, narrative battles, or competitive skirmishes, the Predator offers a robust, design-rich platform for your Warhammer 30k collection. The final look will depend on your paint scheme, weathering choices, and how you approach assembly and assembly alignment.
