What is your favourite Imperial Superheavy Tank?

**Coolyo294**

The Shadowsword, because it can one-shot a Titan.

**iproxtaco**

Agreed. The WD article that features one is a real inspiration.

**Vaktathi**

Baneblade. Able to engage a large number of targets and a wide array of enemies and a 10" pieplate. While the main gun isn't as scary as the Shadowsword's, it's still more then enough against most infantry and often vehicles, and with its blast radius it's hard to miss

**Deadshot**

I love the Shadowsword.

I was reading the novel Return to Armeggeddon,IIRC,that featured

Spoiler:

I learned that thew Shadowsword had a hull mounted one and was estatic!I love the image of a titan killing shot being unleashed from it,and a smoking pair of legs,bigger than the Tank itself,the only thing left.

**English Assassin**

No Capitol Imperialis? Or Hellebore?

**SagesStone**

The Ordinatus.

Though if unique vehicles count as well, then it's a tie with the Fortress of Arrogance.

**Deadshot**

Those would fall under Other.

The CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT.

**Deadshot**

What the feth is that?And can I please have a link to it?

**kronk**

CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT.

**Deadshot**

Thanks

**Asherian Command**

How about the Mega Land Raider thing?
I forget its name but it is basically 2 land raiders stuck together hehehehe

**purplefood**

CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT

CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT origins.

**Deadshot**

I want one!

But the rules suck.30 modals?The thunderhawk is the same capacity,and is more durable,being a flyer,and has 3 SP.

**SagesStone**

What the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT lacks in Thunderhawkness it makes up in CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTability.

**Pouncey**

In terms of looks, I'd have to say the normal Macharius.

In terms of how it plays, the only superheavy I have is a Baneblade, and I don't really play games which allow it to be used, so I don't have one for this category.

**Coolyo294**

HERESY.

**purplefood**

Imagine 6 SWS with 3 demo charges apiece...
18 large blast template that can go pretty much anywhere...

**Grey Templar**

Stormlord, because 4 seperate HWS sooting out of the back with 10 assault terminators hiding in the basement is just evil

**FourCartridge**

The Baneblade. Come on people, it's 11 barrels of exploding fun! What more could you ask for? If only you could field it in a normal tabletop.

**The Mad Tanker**

Where is the all button?

Shadowsword is my favorite, but after that is the Baneblade, Hellhammer (proud owner of both) and the Stormlord.

If some of the more wild 6th ed rumors are to be belived then every codex will be getting at least 1 super heavy. Fliers are in(if only Valks, Stormravens, and Void Ravens for now)

**Movac**

I didn't think the Shadowsword would have such a clear victory.

**Deadshot**

I also like the double shooting Vulcan Mega Bolter on the Stormlord,and the Fortress of Arrogance.
