And here we have the godfather of the Arachnus family. The obnoxiously long Arachnus Magna-Blaze Cannon is a heavy weapon used by the [[Custodian Guard]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].

The ultimate variant of Blaze Cannon, the Arachnus Magna-Blaze Cannon was one of the most potent energy weapons used by humanity and one of the most jealously guarded secrets of the [[Adeptus Custodes]]. The weapon fires beams of light akin to a solar flare; it must be cooled by heat dissipation engines. such as those mounted within atmospheric re-entry cargo spacecraft like the [[Ares Gunship]]. However such incredible firepower came at great cost, for the housing needed to protect and keep cool the release of such tremendous energy pulses is so resource-intensive that [[Lolwut|all of the wealth of a noble family of Terra could be consumed just firing one shot.]]

...which begs the question of
