So I was look in one of my bits / parts boxes and find some very old weapons. I think they maybe old road trader space marine weapons.

Anyone know what these weapons are called ?

I numbered each photo to make it easyer.

**A.T.**

Space Crusade plasma guns and rocket launchers (for marines and dreadnoughts).

5 are the old beaky marine missile launchers.

Okay thanks

Yep. They also hint at the crossover that became the Eldar missile launcher (the tube with tons of micro-rockets in place of large single rockets, etc.). The only one of these which has survived really is the old school Beakie missile launcher which has returned in plastic and resin with the Horus Heresy kits.

It amazes me that both the old and the new Missile launchers are consistant in their remarkable lack of Ammunition.

You get like, 4 shots per battle. that's it.

At least.with the rtb01 kits you got loads of missile and bolter reloads. You could festoon your guys with additional kit if you wanted.

I think one of them is a traffic cone.

I liked the old "around the shoulder" weapons for Marines. I wouldn't say they're absolutely superior way to do things but it is distinctive.

Unless they changed the plastics, you have another 4 on a rack that attaches to a Marine.
