The Ironclad comes complete with extra armor for free, but not the ironclad assault launchers. Interestingly enough, the IAL cost 15 points - exactly what the extra armor costs. Additionally, it is the last option in the entry, the spot every other SM vehicle has the extra armor option.

Seems to me like an unerrated error, what do you guys think?

Ironclads get EA, but you can see it as rolled into the cost of it.

Think of it as 15 points for the Extra point in armor and the weapon fittings..then Extra armor on top of that to get a total of 135.

It's not an error IMO.
It makes sense for the vanilla Combat Dread to have the upgrade that ensures it gets to move when shaken...

/shrug.

Otherwise we'd just blame GW and their fanboism for UltraSmurfs and all things Blue and SMurfy.

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

I think it does seem odd, and look like it might be an error.

@ Sanctjud: Of course the cost is built in for extra armor, but the IAL cost the same in the codex as extra armor would. So the inclusion of either one in the basic loadout would leave the base price unchanged.
