It's not going to cost 180 pts again, is it?
I just don't see Ap2 and hit or miss AT shells worth 35 points.
Sure, there's a Coaxial storm bolter, but that will never fire (at least, not the same turn as the cannon) so why pay for it?
Or will the big beasty have BS4?
Anyone find any rumors? will GW Copy/Paste yet again?
This is a deciding factor for me, as I can't see this thing being useful for paying a rhino's pt value for a pretty gun and a new trick...

Vanquisher's BS3 according to the leaked sheet. Also, why wouldn't the Storm Bolter be able to fire alongside the Vanquisher Cannon? It's St4, so Defensive(not a Factor with Lumbering Hulk anyway) plus the Vanq Cannon is Heavy 1, NOT Ordnance.

I wouldn't worry. If it can't shoot regular Battlecannon shells there's simply no point in taking it. BS3 + 4+ Cover Saves for Vehicles = 75% of your shots will be ignored before you even get to roll for penetration, then it begins to shrink lower than 25%. Not worth it. BYE

And thus were my dreams of having tanks that could actually kill other tanks utterly destroyed...
