The
inspiration for the Incarcerator came from this scenario and
a quick look at the first few pages of Codex: Tau (not
the first place you might expect). The Overview of the
Tau features a picture of an Adeptus Mechanicus Explorator
party taking primitive Tau specimens back to Imperial labs
for testing. In the background, you can see a vehicle carting
off a Tau in a large tube-like holding cell.
When we needed a "paddy wagon" for the Witch Hunters,
it was easy to imagine that their vehicle would look a lot
like that Mechanicus vehicle. However, it needed something
more than a test tube on treads to look like it was a tool
of the Inquisition.
Enter the jet turbine.
Oh no, dear hobbyists, we couldn't just settle for the old
standby of burning at the stake. No, we updated it for the
41st millennium! Now your heretics can be torched in mere
milliseconds, their ashes blasted into the wind with 20,000
lbs. of thrust. If the heretic, rogue psyker, or mutant acts
up on the journey to judgment, all an Inquisitor needs to
do is flip a switch and stand back.
Just what the Ordo Hereticus ordered.

Parts.
