Forge World Releases Glaive Super Heavy




Forge World has released the newest Space Marine super-heavy tank, the Glaive!
From Forge World:

Space Marine Legion Glaive

The Legion Glaive Super-heavy Special Weapons Tank is a variant of the Fellblade. Armed with a Volkite Carronade, it is designed to destroy xenos beasts and incinerate enemy light vehicles at a single sweep.


While the Glaive has been issued to all eighteen Legiones Astartes in limited quantities, the Salamanders and Dark Angels have long been noted to field Glaives as a matter of course; the XVIIIth Legion’s artifice is more than sufficient to maintain and replicate the arcane Volkite technology, while the provenance and honour of the Ist Legion means that their war matériel and weaponry are ancient indeed.


The Legion Glaive, designed by Stuart Williamson, is a multi-part resin and plastic kit that is packed with detail. It is available to pre-order now for despatch from Friday 28th June and experimental rules to field this powerful super-heavy as part of a Space Marine Legion army are available to download now.




The Glaive is an interesting variation of the Fellblade and has an awesome gun on it the Volkite Carronade, whose rules are here.

Expect to see one of these in my Raven Guard army!

  1. I am getting tired of all the negative Loken bashing. If you don't like his blogging shut up and stop reading. But then I guess anonomously bitching about others is really what the Internet is for.
    I like the look of the Glaive a bit more than the Fellblade. I am fond of crazy experimental energy weapons and I am kinda disappointed that there is no over charge rule to go with it like the neutron laser. If I ever come into a spare couple hundred dollars I will probably buy one of these.

  2. I deleted the comments of the anonymous assholes. They are just pathetic haters who need to get a life.

  3. I really like this bad boy :)
    If I had £155 burning a whole in my back pocket I'd buy one. It sounds brutal if you manage to get a perfect line of enemy troops to electrocute :)
