Yo Dawg, I heard you like Manly Tanks...






So we put a Vindicator on a Land Raider so you can Vindicate while you Land Raid dawg!




You can't say the offspring of a Vindicator and Land Raider, both wxceedly maly tanks, are less manly than a russ.

How has this not been mentioned?



Leman Russ Tank Destroyer, it's an Uberphalis on treads. Secondary weapons, I have no need for your puny secondary weapons once I fire my white hot load of DEATH!

The Necron Doom Ark might win, since it's a giant penis strapped between the pilots legs



But the pilot is an emotionless robot

Then there's the Ordinatus, a rolling factory with a gun the size of a building.



And yes some nutter tried this in 28mm



Finally there is a HUGE tank I'm trying to find, it was a black imperial super heavy. Basically a rolling cathedral with leman russ turrets and stained glass and impailed guardsmen on it. Done in the early 2000s before a lot of the bits and kits we have now even existed. Can anyone find it?

The manliness goes down when you see the whack-a-mole marine popping out of the hatch.

Anyways, while the Russ is undoubtedly the manliest tank evar, there is still this beastie.


One Vanquisher Cannon not enough? Try two and strap it to the Baneblade Mk 2, the Macharius.

And people say the Magos never invent stuff.

My manly tank of choice is the Malcador Defender. As old, if not much much older than the venerable Russ tank, mounts a demolisher cannon, sponson weapons such as lascannons, autocannons, heavy bolters and heavy flamers, and a bunker on top with 5 heavy bolters for a 360 degree arc of fire. The beast is designed to go right through the wall of the enemy fortress and act as a mobile bunker laying down covering fire all around it.

And I own one, along with a Macharius VMB, 2 baneblades, one hellhammer and two other baneblade chassis tanks.

In your nightmares...

I LIVE FOR THREADS LIKE THIS!

Obviously, the most manly tank would be the Dais of Destruction..You are riding around in an aerodynamic cardboard box carrying three lances that make Land Raiders cry. Armour? What the feth is armour? We have slave girls as meat shields instead. Did I mention it's being driven by the greatest pimp in space ever? He won't even wait until the battle's over to start 'celebrating'. And if you all insist on bringing in phallic objects, need I remind you what the old Incubi had mounted to their helmets? Was it - another phallic cannon? Not to mention that that prow-mounted dark lance could score many a penetrating hit?

Look at your tank. Now look at me. Now look at your tank. Now look at me. Now back to your tank, now back to me. Sadly, your tank isn't me. But he could be like me if he had slave girls. And spiky black armour. And a space pimp. And two professional killers with crazy helmets and giant swords riding shotgun.

Your tank will never have that. So just give up now.

Bwa-ha-ha.

Does that add or take away manly points? On the one hand, you are strapping people to your tank for the hell of it. That's pretty manly. On the other hand, you are hiding behind others.

Carnifex, the equivalent of a tyranid tank.

Why is it more manly? Because it eats tanks, so if you are what you eat, then the carnifex is more manly for every tank it eats... and constipated.

If we get bonus points for strapping people to our tanks then guard would be the friggin champions.

If I could glue guardsmen to the front of my tank for a coversave I would do it in a heartbeat.

Also, everyone knows you can pick up way more chicks in a tank. I mean look at that Leman Russ. You could cover that thing in women easily.

And get a +5 cover save to boot! Let's see your filthy pointy ear cardboard box with wings do that!

Picking up chicks in a tank? I guess you could strap a dozer blade to a russ and drive it through a crowd of wo.. oh! You mean like flirting and stuff. Yeah, everyone knows the real men drive Russes. Not some sissy Landy Raider or some pansy Necron vehicle.

I do not use kinetic force.

Nor do I use heat.

I unmake you at the atomic level. I unbind your atmoic structure, I tear apart the fabric of reality around you. I reduce you to the basic elemental components of matter. I do this all from an enormous, tank mounted vibrator, and if I somehow fail to satisfy your desire to be un-made, I un-make myself in shame.

I am no mere tank, no mere destroyer, I am a karmic balancer. I ensure manliness prevails, for should my own manliness fail to overcome that of my enemies, I destroy myself, paving the way for continued, greater manliness.

Therefore, I conclude, Valve should announce Half Life 2: Episode 3.
