Thermal Cannon

The Thermal Cannon is a large Melta Weapon carried by the Knight Titans of the Questor Imperialis, the Imperial Knights, and by the Knights of the Questor Traitoris, the Renegade Knights. The Thermal Cannon strikes fear into even the mightiest of foes, for such a weapon is capable of immolating everything in a wide radius. The hissing blasts from a Thermal Cannon can melt through a fortress wall or turn a battle tank into a pile of bubbling slag. Against infantry entire hordes can be reduced in to smouldering ruin. There is no armour that offers any proof against its super-heated shots, which become even more effective at close range. The Thermal Cannon is the main weapon of the Knight Errant and the secondary weapon of the Knight Crusader.

Variants
Due to the sheer diversity of Knight Worlds and Forge Worlds in the Imperium there exist a multitude of minor variants of the Thermal Cannon, each different from the last in a number of distinct ways. All known variants are as follows:


 * Standard Thermal Cannon - The most common type of Thermal Cannon, features two barrels and is similar in appearance to that of a Multi-Melta or a Flamestorm Cannon.


 * Inverted Thermal Cannon - An uncommon variant of the Thermal Cannon, features two barrels like the standard version, but in a side-by-side configuration.


 * Snub-barrelled Thermal Cannon - An uncommon variant of the Thermal Cannon, features a single short barrel.


 * Single-barrelled Thermal Cannon - An uncommon variant of the Thermal Cannon, features a single barrel that is similar in appearance to that of an oversized Meltagun.
