Vortex Weapon

Vortex Weapons are some of the most deadly weapons available and, while coming in many shapes and sizes, operate on the same principle of creating a gaping hole in reality. Like a black hole anything that comes in contact with this warp rift is effectively wiped from existence as they are sucked into the nightmare realm known as the Immaterium. Along with their destructive potential, Vortex weapons are also unpredictable, with the resulting warp rift traveling across the battlefield at random until eventually vanishing.¹
