Heavy Intercessors

Gravis plate is the heaviest armour a battleline squad can carry, and the stance shows it: shoulders squared, torso deepened, every panel thickened until the silhouette reads more like a walking bunker than a line trooper. These are Primaris rank and file built to walk into fire rather than around it, heavy bolt rifles held ready, advancing at a pace that never breaks. On the table this is the unit that does the unglamorous work, planting itself on an objective and refusing to move, soaking shooting that would fold something lighter. Anyone assembling an Imperium force tends to want a squad like it early, because everything else in the list gets to manoeuvre around the anchor it provides. Supplied as a multi-part kit at tabletop wargaming scale, with plenty of armour trim, cabling and panel detail to reward a careful paint job.
