The '''Onager Dunecrawler''' is a walker used by [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] [[Skitarii]]. ==Overview==Based on technology from the [[Dark Age of Technology]], the Onager Dunecrawler is based on the [[Mars]] Universal Land Engine (or M.U.L.E.); itself inspired by the bad-tempered beasts of burden that transported their masters across Holy [[Terra]] in ancient times.{{Fn|1}} The M.U.L.E. was fashioned by famed techno-archaeologist [[Arkhan Land]] as a transport but was soon modified into a weapon of war. It was renamed, equipped with force shielding and replicated by the millions. The Dunecrawler of [[M41]] is largely similar and is able to even outclass the rugged vehicles of the [[Space Marines]].{{Fn|2}}
The Onager Dunecrawler, rather than being a mere carrier, is absolutely brimming with advanced weaponry that can include an [[Eradication Beamer]], [[Phosphor Blaster]]s, [[Neutron Laser]] and a coaxial [[Heavy Stubber]]. It can also be equipped with an '''Icarus Array''', a powerful anti-air package compromising twin [[Autocannon]]s, a [[Gatling Flak Launcher]] and [[Missile Launcher]]s.{{Fn|1}}
