I would say, seeing as they can come with wheels or treads, huge or relatively small, with and without big guns, that it should just be common sense, but that'd just be spoiling the whole point of this
so rule ideas for the: ANGRY MARINES CRASSUS ARMORED DOOMSDAY TITAN.
being the manliest thing alive it should have a 1+ Invuln save against shooting from the manliness shooting forth from it's manhood, and because shooting is for losers.
in close combat then it should have I1 so it's enemies can uselessly rage against it's legs, because that's what real men do, let the enemy hit them, then rape them in the face
on the topic of rape in the face, it should having a BSD (big swingin' d***) rule that allows it to turkey-slap all enemies in BSB and it auto hits and wounds and kills all slaneeshi models. and the BSD should be living metal
Also it shoots angry marines into battle and it can spawn cyclops from it's feet which only spawn when the titan is in CC and can also be blown up via BSD and has a large chance of damaging itself because the cyclops is that manly.
Barrywise wrote: so rule ideas for the: ANGRY MARINES CRASSUS ARMORED DOOMSDAY TITAN.
BSD should have the same rules as a wrecking ball for ork stompas, much simpler.
also, when it is destroyed, it should automatically act as if it was whatever the biggest explosion was called (cataclysmic?) to represent all of it's awesomeness overloading the reactor and destroying everything nearby.
flamer for the BSD might be taking it a bit too far...

Agreed on the flamer bit taking it a wee bit too far.
Suggestive thrust to fire gigantic artillery mounted cannon in pelvis. Absolutely cool.
Cannon is as long as titan is tall? Sounds alright.
"Flamer" activated by busty Farseers? Probably going too far.
Besides, we all know Space marines don't have functioning manly bits anyways
I really want to say that it fires drop pods, but that'll never happen (even doubtful in an imperator).
Cyclops coming out the feet isn't bad... so what will it have on it's arms? I'm thinking a flamethrower of some kind (manly as hell), then either a gatling gun or huge D-weapon (I'm thinking maybe a S10, 5" blast, heavy 4 weapon, then a vortex missile launcher or some such ridicu-powerful blast weapon).
maybe the flamethrower can be on it's wrist, with a huge fist?

What's the super gatling gun the ork titans have?
Because it needs like, a gatling version of that i.e. 6 of them bolted together all firing at once (and spinning while all the guns spin so it creates a literal tornado of bullets)
hah, a gatling gun, each barrel being an individual gatling gun... shoulder-mounted?
I'd say S6, AP2, assault 4D6, keeps shooting until it rolls a double on those 4D6?
So runs dry quicker, but much more firepower... haven't played 40k in a while (not at all since 6th actually), so I dunno how well that'd work.
It should have a CRASSUS CANNON on its pelvis. A massive cannon that fires holy CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANPORTs into the groins of all offending parties, small or large, human or machine, male or female.
Range: Unlimited S: D(if ya know what I mean) AP: 1 Special Rules: Melta, Lance, Vortex, Heavy 1, 10" Blast
yeah sorry, i just recently read the 1D4Chan angry marines article and was reading about the dreadnought, got out of hand, sorry. I'll edit it out. I like the flamer Idea, but the storage tanks... oh boy, here i go again. forget I said anything
also why not a CAAT-a-pult?
Also railguns are pretty manly, especially ones that shoot metal stools
Not that it is any where as manly as the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT but this is pretty manly plus it has a nob cannon so has to count for something

That still leaves you sitting around playing with your wee little joystick when you could be hand carrying the explosives yourself, punching someone in the face, or crushing your enemies under the treads of a real tank. Not manly.

I could see the hades breaching drill as being pretty manly. I mean, its a giant drill, which can presumably pierce the heavens. That's pretty manly. Vaporizing rock and exploding from underneath your enemies is just gravy from that point.

Not a type of tank, a tank. Rynn's Might.
After all of it's crew were slain it went on a fething rampage not giving an feth about anything and everything in its way. A horde of orks? Heavy bolter. Another Tank. Lascannon. Building? Drive right through it.
Too many orks to kill with guns? Kill with tracks.
Finally, when it's tracks were filled wth ork guts and stuff so much that it couldn't move and it was overwhelled, and the orks went inside to pull it apart from the inside? Vent the plasma core killing them all.

a really manly tank would have cleaned it's treads with it's facial hair- failing that, got it's hot babe of a rhino to clean it for him. Other than that minor error, badass as hell
I will have to admit that Ryn's might is definitely in the running for most manly. Not many tanks can go on a killing spree all on its own with no crew inside.
But it's a space marine tank, so loses manly points.
And I have to say some of the ork tanks are super manly, its just that saying CRASSUS ARMORED ASSAULT TRANSPORT is funnier

Just got the mental image of a space marine playing kill team, getting a kill streak and pulling a tiny RC out of his backpack, putting a grenade on it and being the definition of a pansy. Now if the cyclops were part necron and could stand back up after blowing up, then I'd consider it manly

Best of all, it has a malfunction like flayed ones. Except instead of a murderous desire to gain flesh again, it's an uncontrollable desire to bark excitedly and lick people's faces, as it was a pet in necron society.
So you get a happy puppy with a bomb inside it who explodes everytime he gets near someone, only to get put back together and wonder where his playmates went...

Barrywise wrote: Now if the cyclops were part necron and could stand back up after blowing up, then I'd consider it manly
I got tired of people making overpowered custom rules and cardboard titans, so I came up with a Cyclops character to use in any game where I have to face that nonsense. The fluff was it was a Cyclops that gained sentience, decided that it really didn't like the idea of being blown up as a demolition charge, and started massacring anything in its path, while upgrading all of its weapons. So the tiny little tank got titan-scale weapons and armor, and upgraded its demolition charge with a vortex warhead to ensure that if anyone did finally put an end to its killing spree they (and everything else nearby) would be killed by its last dying act of hate.
Of course this was before the new Necron codex, so perhaps it should get reanimation protocols as well?

That's....really morbid.
Sidenote: Honestly, Rynn's Might could be the most manly tank I can think of, now that I am reminded of its existence. If you don't agree, its because you haven't read its story.
One little problem- there's only one Rynn's Might. Therefore, your titan can't move because it can't have three of the same individual tank, while there are probably millions of CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS.
in any case, Rynn's might can take on a horde of orks. Rynn's might titan might manage an army. But CRASSUS ARMOUR-GEDDON can take on an entire planet:
The CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT is far more powerful than a mere Land Raider.
The CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT has no driver or gunners. It is powered by its hatred for anything that isn't a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT. Also known as everything.
A crew of men that are so manly they can use their balls as seats
Seems Squig contradics you Purple
Contradicts me? Me!
I am the goddamn harbinger of the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT MEME. There is one true tank and Purplefood is his prophet!
And seeming this thread is about Manly CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT... Only CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT that are CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT by themselves should CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT.
Have CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT crew doesn't make the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT manly.
Therefore every tank (Except CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT and maybe a fewCRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT) aren't CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT on their own.
How am I right? I'll let CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT tell you...
The crassus armoured assault transport is deserving of no manlies.
Not a one, for it is not manly.
It carries little men with flashlights and hardened t-shirts into battle behind thick armour plating, because said men, if you can even call them that, can't stomach the thought of facing a proper fight.

It enables COWARDICE.
Very un-manly.
The Land Raider is deserving of no manlies.
Not a one, for it is not manly.
It carries little men with glorified bomb chuckers and hardened plastic shells into battle behind even more thick armor plating, because said men, if you can even call that, can't stomach the thought of facing a proper fight without their toys.
But if the vehicle itself cannot be crewed and infact rejects all others to crew it, then does it not reject men? And without men how can it be manly? Isn't it actually rejecting manliness. But is it manly to reject manliness?
Also I keep reading Rynn as Ryan (Paul Ryan) and all these so called ghost stories are obviously fake if it actually is "Ryan might"
Matt.Kingsley is the goddamn harbinger of the RYNN'S MIGHT MEME. There is one true tank and Matt.Kingsley is his prophet!

Tanks can like other tanks, even if the other tank doesn't feel the same way. Obviously you do not understand how they feel or form relationships, therefore you cannot judge them.

You ever seen tank treads literally clogged with cheapo tuxes and overly revealing promdresses the size of tanks? Trust me, it aint pretty.
Manliest tank in the universe you ask well I have only
One answer:
THE Centaur!
(Excuse the lack of a pic my phone thinks it funny to not work when photos are mentioned)
A tank so manly it brings a machine gun to a tank fight,
So manly it transports men with balls of admantium to their death
And of course manly enough that Freddie Mercury can man the gun or Vance "mother*******" Stubbs can drive it.
The Crassus Armoured Assault Transport is a self-indulgant, xeno-phobic, dreaming tank that pretends to be manly with it's rear hatch while Rynn's Might is the most manly tank ever as he isn't a clone, he's taken on whole armiers by himself. Noms on orks, doesn't have an easy-to-penetrate rear and isn't self-indulgant.
The Basilisk is the next manliest as it has the following:

Now, the Valdor, on the other hand, is a manly tank. It carries a powerful weapon, and displays tasteful competence in its capabilities instead of overcompensating for its poor self esteem.
(And, unlike either of the other two candidates, it has neither front nor back hatches. The Valdor gives, it does not receive.)

Rynn's Might wasn't destroyed, it was never recovered. It's inside was fairly damaged, it's outside vey scratched.

The manliest tank in the world? A Grot Tank, because its tiny. To think for a moment you'll survive driving a Grot Tank into a battle zone you must have some serious guts. Its the size of a large tank's shell and its even tiny by scale, not much bigger than its pilots.
A true man dosn't need a big tank, he has nothing to compensate for. That's why I believe the most many tank is the tiny, overlooked, Grot Tank. A.K.A "Many Mobile"

But they're just too big! Its got to be compensating for something, all those men inside it all the time - a Grot Tank is just a simply, comic attempt at a killing machine. Far manlier.
We will convert you back to the true faith of Grot Tankism!

So it fires a shell that weighs the same as 3 HMMWV's? An Adult Male Bull Elephant weighs between 6 and 8 Tonnes, jesus this is like firing an AP elephants at an enemy position!

In terms of matching the Leman Russ I'd go with the Hammerhead any day. It shoots as far, has a stronger gun and has better AP. Plus, it doesn't need LOS to hit you with its Sponsons.
The armour would hold out against the Battle Cannon and as a Skimmer it is far more agile.

can't be bothered finding the exact quote, but "anything that floats along the ground like a fairy is not manly".
I dunno if it has been mentioned yet, but the Spartan Assault vehicle is the manliest tank in 40k.
4 twin linked lascannon shots, armour 14 on all sides, immunities to melta, the flare shield which reduces the strength of shots against its front arc by -1 and a transport capacity of 25.
The Achilles is a strong 2nd only because it can't be destroyed by anything short of a D weapon.
Could you imagine? An entire CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT with the top chopped off and filled to the brim with basilisks.
Not the gun mounts, just entire basilisks parked inside.
My god now I want to make one.
lol!
Make one with the artillery carriages, so the crew just set up their artillery carriages inside the Crassus and started opening up while the Crassus drove around...
Manly? A Baneblade, built from scratch in a builder's yard in Hackney, by one man and his heirloom power tools, fuelled only by the kebab in his belly and the burning hatred of his wife. All of its weapons replaced with giant surround-sound speakers and sub woofers, with the inside gutted out and replace with fittings to incorporate a pool table, bar, dart board, and several large flat screen TV's on which to enjoy weekend fixtures of Blood Bowl - the 41st Millenium's sporting event of choice. The driver is of course, Chuck Norris.

While the Minotaur is awesome (I love mine), it does lose manly points for being designed with rear-facing guns so it can drive away faster if anything gets too close.
If a Basilisk is manly, shouldn't a Medusa be even manlier? It doesn't even have the option of hiding behind buildings to lazily lob its shells on to the enemies. The Medusa has to jam those shells right down the enemy's throat. And the operators don't even have a giant gun shield to hide behind, either. Its crew gets to point and laugh directly at the enemy as they turn them into so much ash and rubble. Combine that with the ability to throw shells that can turn land raiders into scrap without even breaking a sweat, and the Medusa is pretty manly.

Slight Off-Topic, which one should I get (in a few years, but still ), the Minotaur or the Praetor Launcher?

don't know the rules for the praetor, but I'd go with it because it's more cool looking what could personify imperial guard insanity more than a bunker on treads with a huge missile rack on it?
WAIT NO.
Replace all of the heavy bolters with battle cannons then the back is filled with basilisk cannons + a void missile for super effectiveness.
Now I am tempted to build one now XD

SCUM.

That's pathetic. I think I'm going to be sick at its cowardice. What kind of Minotaur runs away?
I think this discussion is missing something. How can a tank with long range be called manly? You don't find men hiding behind things throwing rocks at each other and calling each other names. They're in each others' face, with fists and whatnot.

Thus we return to the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT which gets in the other's face and giving him a right Crassus and castrating him with multiple Heavy Bolters before sh*ting a load of guardsmen on him!

Basilisks and artillery pieces have a range long enough that they don't need to be within 10 miles of the battlefield.
But they are, they get right to the front with paper armour and a fething huge gun, to blow the gak out of the enemy!

Congratulations, you made the basilisk sound like the internet troll of tanks.
A weak little nerdlinger who hides behind his computer to spew insults without ever intending to get involved in a fight. That's not manly, that's just sad.
That's why you have the CRASSUS ARMORED ASSAULT BASILISK to make sure they get up close and personal as they were intended to be used.
Still needs the bolters photoshopped out for more earthshaker cannons though... If I can wrestle with mspaint in a few hours in my drug enhanced state i might just do that...

No, I'd compare it to a soldier who instead of shooting you takes off his vest and shirt and punches you in the nuts. Hard.

Which is why the Basilisk gets bonus manly points. It could fight from a safe distance if it wanted to, but yet here it is sitting on the table at point blank range shooting you to death.

Like if a sniper dropped from the ceiling and shot you point blank with a barret 50. cal.
The Basilisk is essentially noscoping at point blank range. They just kind of point it in the general direction of what they want dead and pull the trigger

^ dropping from ceilings and noscoping, but minus the negative connotations of the image of a 12-year-old playing COD...
I see the point about noscoping like. and Point blank.
but one does not simply read 'Like if a sniper dropped from the ceiling and shot you point blank with a barret 50. cal.' without visuallising that peice of gak...

how about it's more like if a sniper sprinted from his vantage point onto the front lines, out across no-man's land and forcible gave the enemy a free colonoscopy with the barrel of his rifle? Badass, ridiculous and minus the COD feeling.
they're only like marbo in the sense of badass long-range dudes who like to stick in closer than they need to be- basilisks aren't lone wolves, guerrilla fighters or suited for jungle warfare

You can't be a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT, therefore you would have to be it's machine spirit, a.k.a, backseat driver.
And that would be a bad thing.
Plus, that would mean you would make out with spiderman (yes, I went back and skimmed every single page of this thread).
I seem to have showed up a little late to this party... but I still have a contender!

WHEN THEY CAN SEE YOUR FEAR THAT, YES, YOU ARE PROBABLY GOING TO DIE IN A MASSIVE FIREBALL! ALL THE WHILE SMOKING CIGARS, BARE KNUCKLE BOXING AND PLANNING HOW TO USE THAT NEW FIREBALL TO MAKE SOME BBQ!
Gun as big as your tank? Pffffft. The Deathstrike doesn't even need a gun to shoot you with hot explosive death. And the thing it shoots is bigger than your puny earthshaker cannon!
You have an ammo rack? Who needs to reload? Reloading is for people that cant kill everything they need to in one shot. And guess what. You can't destroy this weapon.
Yes. We could take this giant missile and launch it at you from the other side of the planet. But that wouldn't be any fun. So we are going to drive it up right into your face, so that we can see the whites of your eyes before we incinerate you and everything you love.
And do we kill you on turn one in a little pansy alpha strike? No. We show you this missile. And we sit there saying "Hey, see this missile? Yeah, it's big isn't it. And guess what, you get to see it close up a little later".
What's more manly than walking into the open and showing your opponent exactly how he's going to die, and then giving him time to cry before you blow up the world? You have a rebuttal? I'm sorry, I can't hear you over my COUNTDOWN CLOCK. Because it wanted a rule that says "You're screwed in 3...2..1"
Finally. This is a missile so powerful, it can't fit in the rules of the game! They weren't allowed to go past S10 and AP1 in standard 40k, so they had to set it to that. Then added that it doesn't care about template holes. Has a bigger blast than anything in the game (and can be bigger than whats in Apocalypse too), gets to roll 2 dice for armor pen, and ignores your silly little "cover".
And what's this mounted on you ask? A Basilisk without a gun shield.
But then again, are you sure it isn't overcompensating for something?
Besides, Basilisks can fire at will. They aren't affected by bullets unless they explode. And Basilisks don't need any of that high-tech computer aiming tech.
And if i recall correctly, basilisks can be stunned, shaken, or have their earthshaker cannons destroyed.
Deathstrike Missile launchers say "LOL, if I roll a six you die no matter what."
EDIT: Oh, and who needs a computer to aim when you are ramming your giant missile down their throats from 50 feet away.
basilisk's crew are more manly than a deathstrike's- who needs those pesky roofs and walls? That'd stop the enemy looking into our laughing faces as they die!

Manticores, because otherwise the missile wouldn't be aimable.
And as shrike said, you've got roofs and walls. And, yes, they can, but unfortunately for you, the crew don't really care. Gun not working? Time for a bottle of Jack.
Manticores, because otherwise the missile wouldn't be aimable.
Ah, but see. Manticores have twice the minimum range of the Deathstrike. So they aren't quite the same when it comes to point-blank death. And this isn't about manticores, their missiles are too small.
And, yes, they can, but unfortunately for you, the crew don't really care. Gun not working? Time for a bottle of Jack.
And about that, can't the same be said for any sufficently manly tank crew?
However, I have to admit you got me with respect to the crew having to stay inside the tank. It is true that the crew of the basilisk have a wimpy enough gun that it is safe enough to stand around when you fire it. The Deathstrike crew are stuck inside that tiny paper-thin armored box or else they would be INCINERATED BY THE GIGANTIC PLUME OF FIRE BLASTING FORTH FROM THE BACK OF THE MISSILE AND WASHING OVER THE TANK AS THE MISSILE LIFTS OFF.

also conveniently shielding them from enemy fire. A basilisk would go for a bigger gun, but that'd mean they wouldn't be able go out in the open for a cigar or to punch heretics and xenos.

Meh. Open topped.
Also, what about the fact that a larger gun on a Basilisk would make it topple over? A Deathstrike missile isn't that big... And the actual missile points AWAY from the Chimera.
Plus, Deathstrike's a far gimmickier name than Basilisk.

The indirect fire rule screams out "I like to fire upon the enemy from behind something big so that they cannot see me or shoot at me" real men don't need indirect fire, they just need fire with which they can cook steak and burn their enemies!!
Imperial Guard tanks are alright and all that, but technically basilisks, manticores and so forth aren't actually tanks, so they dont count. And none of them (AFAIK) risk blowing themselves up when they fire!
The Terminus Ultra is the manliest tank, because when you dont care if you blow up as long as you kill them first, only 8 lascannons and a Multi melta will do!

"only 8 lascannons and a multi-melta will do", eh?
Spoiler:
This thing has basically every square inch of spare interior space crammed with ammo to the extent that battle-brothers will get assigned as gunners as punishment. If this thing catches one stray round in the wrong place, this thing will create a crater so large it could destroy entire streets.

The Executioner Plasma Cannon is also a heavy weapon, not ordnance, so if you had an Executioner with plasma cannon sponsons, it could move its full 6" and still fire all 5 templates - assuming both sponsons were in LOS - as well as its hull-mounted weapon, thanks to being a heavy vehicle. : D
Anything with a gun and armor on it. Feel free to come up with whatever ridiculous reasons you wish to justify your "reasoning". Eldar tanks, ork tanks, space marine tanks, etc. etc. As long as it has a gun on it and can't get killed by a lasgun, we'll let it be called a tank for the purposes of this.

Use whatever logic you want. You obviously will never top the glorious badassery that is the Leman Russ.
