Chaos Defiler

A Defiler is a potent Daemon Engine mounted on 6 piston-driven limbs that serves in the armies of the Chaos Space Marines. The Defilers were created after the Horus Heresy on the orders of Abaddon the Despoiler to supplement the forces of the Traitor Legions, whose remaining Chaos Dreadnoughts were no longer the reliable heavy support units they had once been before their transformation into the insane cybernetic servants of the Ruinous Powers.

The origins of the Chaotic war machines called Defilers are shrouded in mystery. No one truly knows how they came into existence, but there are tantalising clues and forgotten fragments of ancient texts of Chaotic history that indicate how such abominations came into being in the material realm. Standing on six powerfu, piston-driven limbs, the Defiler's body supports a daemonic turret armed with an array of deadly weaponry, ranging from Reaper Autocannons to racks of high explosive missiles. A Defiler's most potent ranged armament is a Battle Cannon mounted in the turret, which is capable of blowing apart vehicles and destroying enemy squads with a single blast. Those enemies fortunate enough to survive this barrage of shells must face the fury of the Defiler at close quarters. With two massive claws to grab and crush the enemy and whirring blades or whip-like flails to rip them to bloody shreds, the Defiler charges into the enemy's lines and smashes aside all opposition to the Dark Gods as its mechanical growls echo over the dying and wounded.
