Hellhounds are typically organized into either dedicated Hellhound Tank companies or support squadrons for armoured or mechanised companies, but will rarely fight together as a complete unit. Most commanders take a flexible approach to Hellhound deployment, attaching them to other units in an ad hoc fashion as needed. [3]

A Chimerax; this particular vehicle is also equipped with a pintle-mounted Storm Bolter and a Hunter-Killer Missile Launcher. Apply edge highlights to the model using lighter shades. For instance, use Administratum Grey to highlight the edges of the Chimera, emphasizing its contours and details. Bane Wolf - The Bane Wolf uses a Chem Cannon in place of the Hellhound's Inferno Cannon and are used when the complete eradication of the enemy needed, the weapon smothers its targets in broiling clouds of noxious gas that are able to dissolves organic materials in seconds. The targeted victim's blood will boil in their own veins and their flesh falls from the bone as the mixture of toxins does its horrific work. Now that you know how much tougher our vehicles will be in the new edition of Warhammer 40,000, you can start planning which units you’re going to stuff into them. Many an enemy of the Imperium has been destroyed because its commander believed his flanks protected by such watery obstructions, only to find ranks of Imperial Guardsmen, supported by the potent anti-personnel weaponry of the Chimera that had transported them, driving into the very heart of his forces.Also based on the Chimera chassis, the Salamander is an open-topped, lightly armoured scout vehicle armed with an Autocannon and a hull-mounted Heavy Bolter. A command variant of the Salamander is armed with a Heavy Flamer. The vehicle is significantly faster than most Imperial Guard vehicles, and many crews further modify the engines and transmission of the vehicle against regulations to allow additional bursts of speed. However, most commanders overlook the breach of regulations due to the dangerous nature of the missions that Salamander crews must undertake. The Salamander is also often used by artillery company forward observers. The open top provides better visibility when spotting and relaying targets. The Thunderbolt heavy fighter is one of the two main fighter aircraft patterns used by the Imperial Navy, the other of which is the Lightning air superiority fighter. The Thunderbolt is the mainstay weapon system of Imperial Navy fighter wings and is a rugged, well-armed and armoured heavy fighter with all-around capabilities, a good maximum speed and above-average maneuverability, powerful nose-mounted weapons and hard points located on the wings for missile or bomb load-outs. It is an aircraft that is well-liked by those who fly and service it and it has served the cause of the Emperor for many centuries.

The Macharius Vulcan variant replaces the twin Battle Cannons with a single Vulcan Mega Bolter, a weapon more commonly found on Titans, to give the tank truly devastating anti-infantry power at close range. The Chimedon is essentially a heavier armed version of the Chimera that serves as a light tank. The Chimedon is armed with a turret-mounted Conqueror Cannon for added firepower.

The Chimera also mounts a hull-mounted Heavy Bolter or Heavy Flamer and 6 hull-mounted Lasguns on the vehicle's flanks which can be fired from the passenger compartment, allowing the infantry inside to fire at the enemy. It can carry up to 12 Guardsmen, 6 Heavy Weapons Teams or 4 Ogryns. The Chimera also has amphibious capabilities, allowing it to take part in naval amphibious assaults or overcome watery obstacles like swamps and rivers. The Trojan is an ubiquitous Imperial support vehicle, serving behind the front lines to reload heavier tanks and tow fixed artillery emplacements into position. The Trojan uses the Chimera tank chassis, and is only armed with a single hull-mounted Heavy Bolter. Imperial Guard - The Chimera is the most common vehicle used by the forces of the Imperial Guard and most Guard regiments have more of this vehicle in their armouries than any other.
