First off, that conversion looks great! Have you thought of a name for it yet?

I would definately say ordnance rather than just a small blast.

Range 82 seems a random amount. Why not make it a daemonicly enhanced Earthshaker? i think that gives it a min range as well (36-120 i believe).

I also like the idea od a Possessed shell but i think re-rolling the scatter AND the penetration dice is a little much, not so much OP as too many dice to roll and faff about with.

How about instead of a re-roll the daemon helps guide the shot so it only scatters 1D6?

So......



R: 36-120
S 9
AP2
Ordnance 1, Small Blast.
*Possessed Shell
**The daemonic entity possessing the cannon is able to affect the trajectory of the "shell" after firing. As a result shots from the cannon only scatter 1D6



I see some other funky gun looking bits on there too. Please post the rules for the tank as it looks epic!

BS2?!?! Daemonic Possession only takes chaos tanks down to BS3.

To be fair there's no reason a super heavy has to be based off a BaneBlade chassis. If this were a normal sized LR i would agree with you. But now that it has been extended i would think it is at least the same length as a Baneblade, although maybe a little narrower.

Ummm, wouldn't it be potentially a 6" scatter? and with a small blast that could easily be a clean miss.

So the Mege Multi-Melta would be S9 AP1? What kind of range would it be?



Also, could someone post a link to this VDR thing? It soudns interestgin btu i've never seen it.

You subtract a units BS from the scatter distance...not to be rude, but you might want to go refresh yourself on the rules as they are before trying to design or comment on the relative value of house rules/units.

Here s a link to an online VDR calculator: http://www.ageofstrife.com/tools/vdr/ I'm not sure where online you could find the rules themselves as they're copyrighted material.

Ah, i didn't realise you were inclusing the reduction in that (i was referrign to a 6" scatter before reduction), that's where i got confused.

Regardign range on the Meg Multi melta. I woudl think you coudl up the cost and increase the range just liek it does from melta to multi-melta....so:

Melta Gun: R12, S8, AP1
Multi-Melta: R24, S8, AP1
Mega Multi Melta: R36, S9, AP1
