Warhammer 40k is exaggerated. But not exaggerated as Gears of War o Halo. Not even as Star Wars. I speak of an exaggeration level that exceeds the absurdity, laughs at the laws of physics, and reaches the kingdom of hilarious madness. There are things written in this universe that are typical of people who have definitely put limits. We talk about cannons.
Surely you think the death star of Star Wars And the Hammer of the Alba of Gears of War They are very beast things. We talk about weapons with a capacity for planetary destruction. Well Warhammer 40K He has things just as beasts … and more, much more. Space Marine 2, set of interactive knowledge, showed us the iconic orbital defense cannons or orbital cannons (main image), are energy weapons designed to destroy anything that is in the orbit of the planet. Its size is colossal and surpasses any building you have seen in your life.
Although all the weapons mentioned are water guns compared to the Massif Ballistus of the planet Volkus of Warhammer 40K. We are facing one of the most absurd, exaggerated and hilarious weapons ever built in fiction. This thing is cataloged as an “antibunker canyon”, although it is a mere label because it is actually a ballistic orbital cannon for the size of a city. He is nicknamed “The Grand Canyon” or “Sacred Show”.
We talk about a bug so absurdly that the cannons exceed the planet’s atmosphere and the base reaches the core of it. Tribes projectiles of the size of whole apples (of a city) with a range of 804,000 km, which becomes 2.1 times the average distance between Earth and the Moon. The laws of physics do not go with this monstrosity, except in relation to shooting and its recoil.

Shooting the Massif Ballistus requires an immense amount of materials and take into account the planet’s own rotation and severity. Each neighborhood of the Fissilicus hive city, built around it, specializes in a step of the construction and transportation process and maintenance of the canyon. They live by and for the cannon. And speaking of neighborhoods: the setback is so strong that it kills hundreds of people living in the marginal neighborhoods closest to the base. For many humans it is a divine manifestation of the emperor himself. Even so, there are foolish that attack Volkus …
