... Does something with 12 wounds count as a Super Heavy? Even if there are like three of them? No.

Anyhow... a Super Heavy tank is the thing. They are brilliant. I don't think you want more than one: you still need to conquer the battlefield, reach the places the LoS of your Tank won't see, support everything above and react to unforseen situations.

But as far as Knights go? Man. I saw a Knight-player toying with an opponent, going anywhere he pleased and doing whatever he chose to, with only a couple of wounds suffered. But when he went against me, the Knight was instantly destroyed by my Tank.

Moral of the story: an Imperial Knight is freakin' awesome but a Shadowsword destroys it.

If you want to laugh, go look at the costs for wraithknight weapons, and the loadouts. it's far worse than the IKs are.

in what world a suncannon is worth that much I don't know.

I'd like them to be casually viable, not suck massively like they do now, just so that I can actually have motivation to paint mine. Its been sitting on the shelf since I got one around the holidays as a gift....

Its also only 4 wounds to bracket the dread not 6



Unless I missed a FAQ somewhere, it's 5 wounds to bracket a Contemptor (from the codex, anyway), not 4.
