Ok, I may get laughed at here at dakka, but I've found when my opponents take multiple Land Raiders, it is actually hard for me to take them all down.

One, not a problem
Two, troublesome, but not impossible.
Three, crap, they are still coming at me.
Four, hmmm, no one's brought four before
Five-Now, I'm interested.

No earth shattering, thought provoking quote. I'm just someone who was introduced to 40K in the late 80's and it's become a lifelong hobby.

You will probably get laughed at, but it might work sometimes and would certainly be fun to play.

Honestly, if you didn't have lots of players fielding 4-8 Donkey Cannons in their armies it would do a lot better. I don't think the problem is with the assault cannon per se. The problem is in the fact that a land raider is worth 200 pts tops! It is less well armed than a predator, has much less survivability than a falcon or monolith, and has less transport capability than a monolith. If you use it as a fire support system, it is undergunned. If you use it to transport troops, it lacks survivability. The crusader trades all long range fire for an increased squad sizes (making it a one trick pony) and it costs more. You used to be able to fire the hurricane bolters no matter how far you moved, which was pretty cool. You can't even do that anymore!
