Warhammer The Horus Heresy: Legiones Astartes - Breacher Squad Upgrade Set

Reinforce your front line with the Warhammer The Horus Heresy: Legiones Astartes – Breacher Squad Upgrade Set. This multipart plastic kit is designed to transform your existing MKIII Tactical Squad into a hardened unit of Breachers, perfect for storming objectives, boarding actions, and grinding close-range engagements.

Breacher Squads trade speed for resilience, using heavy boarding shields and reinforced armor to push through enemy fire while delivering devastating bolter volleys. This upgrade set adds durability and tactical flexibility to your Legiones Astartes force without the need to build a completely new unit.

The kit also includes specialist weapons like a lascutter for tearing through armored targets and bulkheads, plus a graviton gun to disrupt elite infantry at close range.

Painting Tips (Using Citadel Paints)

Breacher Squads look especially striking with bold Legion colors and battle-worn metallics.

Suggested Citadel Colors:

• Leadbelcher / Iron Warriors – base armor
• Retributor Armour / Brass Scorpion – trim and details
• Mephiston Red / Macragge Blue / Caliban Green – Legion colors
• Abaddon Black – weapons and joints

Using washes and weathering on the shields helps sell the look of veterans who’ve survived countless boarding actions.
