Description
Mechanicum: Thanatar Calix Siege-Automata
The Thanatar Calix is a towering siege-automata designed by the Mechanicum to serve as a walking artillery platform capable of quickly levelling enemy strongpoints. Drawing on the forbidden tech-arcana of multiple secretive Mechanicum factions, it unleashes devastating energy blasts from its Sollex heavy-lascannon, cutting through bunkers, fortresses, and armoured targets. When the dust settles, its graviton ram finishes the job, crushing anything beneath its massive frame.

Battlefield Role
In Warhammer: The Horus Heresy, the Thanatar Calix is a heavy support unit that targets bunkers, strongpoints, and enemy vehicles. Its high-powered lascannon allows it to strike from the range with pinpoint accuracy, while the graviton ram ensures it can deliver the finishing blow at close quarters.
Whether deployed alongside a full Mechanicum cohort or as an allied detachment with Legiones Astartes or Solar Auxilia, the Thanatar Calix brings overwhelming firepower and a brutal presence to the battlefield.
Add the Thanatar Calix Siege-Automata to your collection and bring the full force of the Mechanicum’s siegecraft to the Age of Darkness.
