I think it speaks to the timelessness of this thread that it hasn't been locked for necromancy. Long live the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT!

With a recent FW update, you can take CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT as a Super Heavy in a game of Escalation! I'm not an IG player, but I wish I was!

Well, there is the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TITAN prototype leaked by Ouze on page 2:




I guess FW is having trouble deciding exactly how many CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORTS need to be used to properly constitute a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TITAN, or how the rules for a CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT CANNON would work...

but I'm sure it will be out soon...

What are you talking about? The thread title is asking about what one puts in a Crassus Armoured Assault Transport. It's a strange vehicle in that it has to follow the Transport rules for 40k but it also has such a large capacity (I believe). It doesn't appear to have any firing points so using it as a mobile Plasma bunker is a no go. I could see it as a "You can't shoot at my blob without killing the box they are in first" sort of deal to make an already difficult to kill unit harder but, mostly, I'd use it as a flamer boat.

If it can transport more than one unit then I would spam the hell out of SWT armed with meltaguns. Chimera Meltavets eat your heart out.

...Crassus Armoured Assault Transport....




The Ordo Hereticus will be seeing you about your mispronunciation of the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT...

Isn't it pronounced "Krah-sis Arr-merd Uh-Salt Trahn-sport"? I don't believe that the pronunciation has anything to do with the topic of the forum.

Can you take it as per the new Escalation rules? I've been wanting to get one since it's a nice model and it has some nice transport capabilities.

Did you actually read the thread?

Note to the reader: my username is not arrogance. No, my name is taken from the most excellent of commanders: Lord Castellan Creed, of the Imperial Guar- I mean Astra Militarum - who has a special rule known only as "Tactical Genius"... Although nowhere near as awesome as before, it now allows some cool stuff for the Guar- Astra Militarum - player. FEAR ME AND MY TWO WARLORD TRAITS.

No, it is pronounced: ˈkræsəs ˈɑːməd əˈsɔːlt trænsˈpɔːt

And if you haven't gotten the hint yet, CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT is to be written always in caps.

No, but I just wanted to weigh in my advice for what to put into a CAAT. I did skim it and it showed some nice previews of upcoming FW products. I like the new Titan they are making.

@IronCaptain

I thought so. Thanks for the clarification!

Has everyone seen the new CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT datasheet? What are people thinking are the best things to put inside the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT, now that we are in 10th edition? With a transport capacity of 35, the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT doesn't quite fit 12 Ogryns. I was hoping to use Ogryns because the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT has a special rule that works really well for getting masses of wounds against the enemy.

So, anyone have any good ideas of what to put inside the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT?
