'''Land Speeders''' are light anti-gravity vehicles, serving as the primary reconnaissance, scouting, resupply and fast attack vehicles of the Imperial [[Space Marine]] [[Chapter]]s.
==History==
[[Image:LSpeed.gif|right|200px|thumb|A Land Speeder]]
Land Speeders are based on [[STC]] data recovered in [[M31]] by the famous [[Tech-priest#Magos|Techno-archaeologist]] [[Arkhan Land]], and afterwards became widely produced and used throughout the [[Imperium]]. Land Speeders were also originally used by the [[Imperial Guard]], but since then the plasma and anti-gravity technologies required to produce them have become increasingly rare and hard to maintain.{{Fn|1}} Only extremely resource rich planets like [[Ryza]] or organisations such as the Space Marines can afford to create them.
