...To CRASSUS ARMOURED TRANSPORT, if so that makes more sense because CRASSUS ARMOURED TRANSPORTS aren't really designed for assaulting. Or was it always called a CRASSUS ARMOURED TRANSPORT?

How very dare they. They're bang out of their rights changing the name of their own products once it's already become a meme.

Egads! The man is right!

Doesn't really have the same ring to it IMHO, I fear they may have ruined our meme.

"As I recall, your face was tortured. Imagine that - the Master of the Wolves, his ferocity twisted into grief. And yet you still carried out your duty. You always did what was asked of you. So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now."

How dare they!
After all we and the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT did for them!
They insult us with this traversty and pathetic crassus armoured transport...

I propose a new sciety. The CRASSUS AMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS against CRASSUS ARMOURED TRANSPORTS! Or CAATACAT. We shall fight the good fight!
Regardless from here on in we shall refer to them only as CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS AND fw can stick it in their crassus armoured transports.

They will rue the day they thought they could challenge the internet...

Just a logical step... I think the meme sucks.... besides, the Crassus isn't an Assault Vehicle like the Land Raider.
(Why not? The big "door" in the front??? The first Assault Vehicle for Guard since.. uhm.. ever???
missed opportunities, FW, missed opportunities....)

Make it an Assault Vehicle. I don't give a damn about the name....

The Crassus is designed to look like the USMC's Amphibious Assault Vehicle.

That 'door in the front' isn't. It's a slope in the armor, and on the AAV at least is a pretty hefty piece of armor too.

Well technically "assault" doesn't have to be restricted to melee. If you assault a bastion or beachhead, you don't necessarily have to do any stabbing/whacking/beating/close-combating. But you probably would anyway because BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

Nahh, just use the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT that you conjured up with the power of your mind to smash in through one end of Forgeworld HQ and out the other end with a non-imagination-conjured CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT safely cradled in your arms like the sweet sacred baby Jesus himself.

My dictionary definaition of 'buy' has just changed drastically.

You should build a mega immense CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT that's more immence than normal CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS because it's made up of ten hundred thousand CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTs put together. Its standard armaments will be other, standard mega immense CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT's.

CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT count for this post: #10 - AKA not nearly enough CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTs!

1) They wouldn't dare lock a thread based on Dakka's very own meme. Besides, we're talking about CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTs in a thread about CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTs. On topic still, perhaps?
2) Mods are allowed to derail threads. It's like the police locking people up for a night just because they don't like them/it's in their power to do so - they will get away with it*.

*unless we use our CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTs against them.

Chill down and calm out people, obviously they're renaming the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT the CRASSUS ARMOURED TRANSPORT so that later they can revile the new and Improved CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT now with assault ramps!

No, that would have been called the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT MARK TWO. They're obviously just being a bunch of Mat Ward's.

No...
Matt Ward drives a CRASSUS ARMOURED TRANSPORT which is clearly inferior due to the lack of assaultyness.

Touche.
What happens if a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT assaults another CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT (vehicles lack of assault ability not withstanding)?

It's only touché if you're defending Mat Ward. And you're not seriously defending that infidel, are you?

The CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT would win because it doesn't have the vehicles' lack of assault ability due to it being a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT and not just some crappy crassus armoured transport that doesn't deserve caps lock or shift key treatment.
