The Faash (the military cadre of the non-Imperial human civilisation known as the [[Dulanian]]s) employed a type of reactor-driven power armour utilised by their [[Scarabine]] mechanised troopers. This heavy armour incorporated internal shield generators and [[chem-stimm]] dispensers and featured built-in arm-mounted weapons, typically [[interference gun]]s or [[lasgun]]s and [[power gauntlet]]s.{{Fn|47}}
==Trivia=={{Trivia}}==={{Endn|Conflicting sources}}===*The MkII armour is claimed in [[Deathwatch: Rites of Battle]] to not be able to move its helmet, with the Astartes insides still being able to rotate his head around inside the said helmet. This conflicts with [[Forge World (company)|Forge World]]'s depictions of the MkII armour set and the novel [[Horus Rising]], where an Astartes is seen in MKII Power Armour with the helmet turned towards several of his brethren.{{Fn|48}} According to [[Games Workshop]], Forge World intentionally redesigned the armour's helmet and neck joint in this way to enable more modelling options.{{Fn|26}}
====Squat Influences====
The [[Squat]]s influence on the development of MkIII armour conflicts across sources and time. White Dwarf 128 (1990) places MkIII development firmly because of the squat homeworlds in the galactic core. By the time of the Deathwatch RPG, the Rites of Battle supplement (2011, a second-party supplement) references the following:
Squats are specifically not mentioned, and this was released before the re-launch of the Horus Heresy tabletop game.
By the time a webpost is was written about it on Warhammer Community (most recently accessed 2021, but posted earlier), that has been solidified as being created for boarding actions and tunnel fighting, with no reference at all to the galactic core or high gravity worlds. {{Fn|26}}
