Warhammer 40,000 – Astra Militarum – Basilisk – 47-08
This is a web-exclusive item - different discounts apply to this than to the regular Games Workshop range.
The Basilisk is one of the most recognisable artillery tanks of the Astra Militarum. Where Guardsmen hold the line and Leman Russ tanks press the enemy, the Basilisk provides devastating long-range fire support with its imposing earthshaker cannon.
Heavy artillery for your Astra Militarum army
On the battlefield, the Basilisk is ideal for players who want to support their army with long-range fire and area control. The earthshaker cannon gives you the ability to threaten enemy units without having to be in the thick of the fight yourself.
The Basilisk fits perfectly into defensive gunlines, combined arms formations, and regiments that want to advance their infantry under the cover of heavy bombardment. It is not a front-line tank like a Leman Russ, but a support vehicle that operates behind the lines.
Flexible build options and recognisable Imperial Guard style
This kit builds one Basilisk on the classic Astra Militarum chassis. In addition to the long main cannon, the set includes various options and accessories to give the vehicle more character, such as extra equipment, armour, hatches, tools, and regimental details.
The Basilisk also has a crew platform at the rear, making the model visually feel more like a true mobile artillery position than a standard tank. This makes it a striking addition to any Imperial Guard force.
Painting fun with armour, mud and regimental markings
For hobbyists, the Basilisk offers plenty of scope for weathering and military details. Think of worn edges, mud on the tracks, soot around the barrel, oil on the engine plates and dust on the open platform.
With the included Astra Militarum transfer sheet, you can finish the vehicle with tactical numbers, regimental markings, and Imperial iconography. Cadian green, desert camouflage, winter grey, or a custom-designed regiment all work excellently on this large armoured vehicle.
