Description

Astra Militarum: Kasrkin

Kasrkin are among the finest soldiers Cadia has ever produced. Selected from the most capable warriors of the Cadian regiments, these veteran operatives combine disciplined training with reinforced carapace armour and powerful hot-shot weaponry. They are the troops sent into the most dangerous fighting, where ordinary infantry may struggle to survive.

This multipart plastic kit builds 10 Kasrkin for an Astra Militarum army in Warhammer 40,000. The squad offers an impressive range of weapons, specialist equipment and cosmetic options, allowing you to assemble a distinctive unit of elite Cadian soldiers ready to take on high-priority missions.

Product Features

The Astra Militarum: Kasrkin kit provides plenty of flexibility when building your squad. The Kasrkin Sergeant can be equipped with a bolt pistol, plasma pistol or hot-shot laspistol, alongside a power sword, chainsword or pointing arm. Alternatively, the model can be assembled as a standard trooper or plasma gunner.

Across the rest of the squad, you will find options for hot-shot lasguns, plasma guns, a meltagun, flamer, grenade launchers, hot-shot volley gun and hot-shot marksman rifle. Specialist equipment includes a vox-caster and a melta mine paired with a hot-shot laspistol.

Different poses, interchangeable heads and cosmetic details provide further opportunities to personalise the unit. Whether you prefer a uniform military appearance or a squad in which every veteran has their own character, the kit offers plenty of modelling variety.

Box Contents

This box contains:

• 166 plastic components
• 10 Kasrkin miniatures
• 10 Citadel 28.5mm Round Bases
• 1 construction guide

The included Cadian Transfer Sheet contains 597 waterslide transfers, including Cadian regimental symbols, numerals, logos and additional military markings for decorating your miniatures.

Assembly and Painting

These miniatures require assembly and are supplied unpainted. Warhammer Colour Plastic Glue is recommended, alongside suitable modelling tools such as Super Fine Detail Cutters.

The squad is an enjoyable painting project for Astra Militarum collectors, with layered carapace armour, weapon casings, equipment pouches, visors and Cadian insignia providing plenty of detail to pick out. The extensive transfer sheet also makes it easy to tie the unit into an existing Cadian force or give it its own regimental identity. Warhammer Colour paints are recommended for completing the miniatures.

Battlefield Role

Kasrkin provide the Astra Militarum with a compact unit of heavily equipped elite infantry. Their carapace armour and hot-shot weaponry make them stand out from standard Guardsmen, while the wide selection of special weapons allows the squad to be configured for different battlefield assignments.

They fit naturally into Cadian armies as experienced shock troops, supporting the wider battle line by entering dangerous areas and confronting priority targets. Their extensive weapon options also make them a useful choice for collectors who enjoy tailoring individual squads to complement the rest of their Astra Militarum force.

With their distinctive armour, specialist equipment and extensive customisation options, Kasrkin capture the disciplined, battle-hardened character of Cadia’s finest soldiers. They make an excellent centrepiece infantry squad for anyone looking to add an elite Cadian presence to their Astra Militarum collection.
