Myrmidon Destructors are heavy Tech Priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus who have joined the Auxilia Myrmidon.[1]
Overview
These War-Priests become long-range weapons specialists dedicated to the art of destruction. They have vastly augmented their bodies with bionics and heavy weapons such as the Volkite Culverin, Conversion Beamer, Darkflame Cannon,[4] and Irradiation Engine.[1]
Myrmidons are dedicated to the Ordo Reductor, who worship the Machine God as the embodiment of death and destruction.[3] They are so powerful that the Magos Militant of a forge world will go to great lengths to recruit them in times of war.[4]
