So. After reading through the Manliest Tank in the Universe thread ( http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/120/498612.page) I am disappointed. The ork stompa wand hardly mentioned. This think is a pile of rusty scrapmetal that you made to look like your momma, with enough guns on it to turn the air into a bulletmist. BULLETMIST! it walks. It breathes fire. It has a giant claw arm to RIP YOUR BANEBLADE TO SHREADS. It steps on leman russes and uses whats left to MAKE ANOTHER STOMPA! how is this not the manliest tank in the universe? This thing will shake itself apart, blow itself up or kill everything in its path. IN THE FAR FUTURE OF 40K THERE IS ONLY STOMPA! now, the only manlier thing is an ork gargaunt. ITS A BIGGER STOMPA!

There is a very good reason for that.
The stompa is not a tank.

I can see it now....Nids are now a collection of autonomous hive fleets there are multiple Hive Minds and they all war with one another in addition to everyone else. They speak to humans using telepathy, and they can now ally with Space Wolves as battle brothers, because reasons.
Tyranids talking to humans would be like you talking to your mashed potatoes or the probiotic in your kiefer drink. It is neither possible nor productive. Inside my mind I pinched my nipples and savored his bitter silence.

The stompa is a titan. While that makes her a vehicle, it does not make her a tank.

And of course, it still is not manly as the Crassu....I mean, the vehicle not to be named.

How are you defining "tank"?
Anything with a gun and armor on it. Feel free to come up with whatever ridiculous reasons you wish to justify your "reasoning". Eldar tanks, ork tanks, space marine tanks, etc. etc. As long as it has a gun on it and can't get killed by a lasgun, we'll let it be called a tank for the purposes of this.
And no, I'm not drunk, just wanted to start a fun thread for guys to talk tanks and have some laughs.
As for the baneblade, that thing aint made out of a friggin tractor. -20 manly tank points.
it has armor. And a lot of guns. your argument is invalid.

It walks. It is Titan sized. It's a Titan or a vehicle, but it certainly is not a Tank.
Your argument is invalid. Best of luck with your thread, though.

Hmm is anyone else smelling a troll?
Either way a Stompa is a Titan, not a tank.
