A called a "burner", the Hand Flamer is a more compact pistol version requiring only one hand. Along with using a lower-capacity fuel tank it has much reduced range, which makes it suited for assault and close-combat purposes, incinerating foes at short range.{{Fn|1}} The weapon is used by [[assault squad]]s, such as [[Seraphim]] units which employ them in pairs. ==Patterns==*'''Ignis Pattern''' - Used by [[Space Marines]], most notably the [[Blood Angels]] and their [[Successor Chapter]]s.{{Fn|3}}*'''Akkadic Pattern''' - Used by [[Ashen Circle]] [[Space Marine|Legionnaires]]{{Fn|2}}*[[Exterminator (Weapon)|Exterminator]]*'''Destroyer-Pattern''' - Also known as the Cadence Promethium Incineration Device, it was produced by the [[Inquisition]] in the [[Calixis Sector]].
