My personal favorite weapon of Warhammer 40k!

[@stuartlonnen5355]

Nah, conversion beamer baby!

[@SusCalvin]

You could stick one of these into every iggy infantry squad. Veteran squads could have more, presumably having scrounged them up over campaigns.

[@bluemilkalienmonster522]

“Melta gun” sounds like it should be an Ork weapon.

[@rupertcortes3980]

Short ranges but powerful anti armour weapon.

[@MrMaximkozin]

At what point did meltas become short range? I've only seen that in Space Marine 2

[@DuxDamnatio]

They've always been close range. Not like point blank range mind you. But definitely close up. The rifles usually have a 12" range on tabletop and the bigger versions like the multi melta have 18". However they come with rules that increase their damage heavily when used at half range or closer. I assume when you shoot what is essentially just extremely superheated air you won't get much range out of it.

I think he's referring to the erroneous "Melta Beams" in the Sisters of Battle Factiom in DOW.

Burn the heretic!!
