Yeah, its mine-field clearing main-gun is also like a instant-bangalore torpedo: essentially 140 grenades tied-together in a long rope.
It is also called "the breacher" which in no was could become an innuendo. Ever.
I have so much to look forward to when I go IA.

Thatz becuz we Americanz iz made for fightin' and winnin'
Politikz be damned!
Also, keep in mind that we have used similar technology in the past few decades. While the addition of the ferocious looking dozer blade is new, the concept of firing a long string of REALLY thick det cord is not. That has been around since at least the '90s, and I think before.

Well then, please enlighten me as to what countries would be cool enough?
Right now, I am thinking Lichtenstein and New Zealand, and possibly Spain. But only because they are crazy enough to jump into the streets and let bulls chase them. Definitely very orky thinking there.

Orks as everywun kno are Millwall fans, therefore they are British.
The idea of mine-clearing tanks was invented in WW2 by a South African, and developed by the British.

Its hard to be awesome, when your playing with little plastic men.
Welcome to Fantasy 40k
If you think your important, in the great scheme of things. Do the water test.
Put your hands in a bucket of warm water,
then pull them out fast. The size of the hole shows how important you are.
I think we should roll some dice, to see if we should roll some dice, To decide if all this dice rolling is good for the game.
