TDA was also relatively new.

Man portable plasma cannons and multimeltas were not yet developed, hence why CSM don't have them, so you could have some of those be your experimental weaponry.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6511303.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6511303.page GMT Re:Experimental wargear

Technically, plasma guns and plasma blasters were also experimental, as originally they used Volkite guns instead of plasma.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6512858.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6512858.page GMT Experimental wargear bolters.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513178.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513178.page GMT Experimental wargear

Plasma was actually less common at the time, bolters were more common, then plasma phased out volkite weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513258.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513258.page GMT Experimental wargear SM had them. As time progressed though, demand for the weapons became too much and it was a complex piece of technology only Mars could create. As time progressed, bolters became the standard arms. So volkite probably became the "plasma" weapon. Eventually though, after a dramatic heresy, the fall of many tech priests of mars to chaos, and then stagnancy, the comprehension of the technology failed not to mention their capability of outputting enough of them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513263.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513263.page GMT Experimental wargear
Horus Heresy: Betrayal wrote:Once relatively common within the fledgeling Legions, they had fallen largely from favour by the time of the Heresy, and had been superseded in the space Marine Legions by the far more flexible and utilitarian Terran bolter.


They were replaced by bolters, not plasma guns.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513268.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/578187/6513268.page GMT
