Covenants of Astyri - Aphaera Gunship

Employed exclusively for those deemed beyond salvation, the Aphaera Gunship first appeared shortly after the Covenants of Astyri encountered the Skjalos Guard for the first time.

After discovering most, but not all, of their emissary strewn over several miles of the Sykaran Wastes, the Aphaera was built, specifically for the purpose of destroying the Skjalos Guard. Equipped with four laser destructors and a rad-missile bay, it marks one of the most heavily armed craft the Covenants have yet fielded, ideal for obliterating enemy fortifications with its las-fire, then turning its occupants slowly and excruciatingly into bubbling pools of viscera.

As heavily armoured as it is armed, the Aphaera is hardly a craft designed for speed or dogfighting, but its omnidirectional engines grant it a near unmatched ability to quickly reposition and fire at incoming enemies.

This kit includes:

• One Aphaera Gunship
• One flight stand for mounting the gunship to a base.
• One circular 160mm base with a mounting point for 5mm diameter x 2mm thick cylindrical magnets.
• One hexagonal 160mm base with a mounting point for 5mm diameter x 2mm thick cylindrical magnets.
