Holy Orb of Antioch

First created by Marine Artificer Antioch, these are individually-crafted grenades empowered with the holy wrath of the Emperor and filled in equal measure with high explosives and sacred unguents that burn the faithless with their purity. Holy Orbs of Antioch are lethal weapons against the impure and wicked. The Grenades are most commonly used by the Space Marines of the Black Templars.

In Game Tearms
Once per game, a model bearing a holy orb of antioch may throw it up to 12" in the shooting phase instead of firing a weapon, rolling to hit as normal. If the Orb hits, it will wound on a D6 role of 2+, regardless of the targets thoughness, and has an AP of 4. Against vehicles with an armour value, it causes an automatic glancing hit if the model is in range. A model throwing an Orb of Antioch may charge in the Assault phase.
