What do you think?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2726014.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2726014.page GMT More Leman Russ options... http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2726031.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2726031.page GMT More Leman Russ options... DKOK...

About the Las/Autocannon thing... I didn't know that.
Maybe, only the destructor could have a hull mounted Autocannon or/and Autocannon sponsons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2726070.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2726070.page GMT More Leman Russ options...

Oh well, it still seems like a cool idea, at least you didn't propose we fit volcano cannons.

I wish there were upgrades for different ammo types so you could choose which type of round you're firing. I mean, it is canon that LRBTs have different types of ammo. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2727541.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2727541.page GMT More Leman Russ options... http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2728117.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2728117.page GMT More Leman Russ options...
Sternguard =/= LR

Russes need more variants, so that you could actually choose which kind of tank do you want

Also, the Track Guard should be an option for IG tanks... Not just Krieg.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2729178.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2729178.page GMT More Leman Russ options...
e.g.
LRBT, Special Ammo.

HE- S8, AP3, Large Blast,
AP- S10, AP2, Small Blast
Canister- S6, AP5, Small Blast, Ignores Cover, Range cut to 24"

Vanquisher, Special Ammo

HE- S8, AP3, Small Blast
AP- S8, AP1, 2d6 Armor Pen

There are already plenty of leman russ varients to choose from in the new codex all of which suit differant roles.

Even if your russ cant fill a certain role such as anti-air or artillery they have alot of other tanks to do that for you such as the basilisk and hydra.

A Russ is a battle tank not a gun platform or artillery piece they cant have every weapon in the codex.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2729823.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2729823.page GMT More Leman Russ options...
AP shells? Str8 AP1
Poisonous gas? Str1 AP5 poison (2+)
Anti-cover? Str4 AP3 ignores cover
Bastion breacher? (too big for russ?) Str10 AP1]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2730833.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2730833.page GMT Re:More Leman Russ options...
Turret mounted missile battery (regular missile launcher profile, but heavy 4)
Hull hounted Heavy bolter
Sponson mounted pair of twin linked Heavy Stubbers (2 per side, both twin linked)

It might not work well in game, but I like the concept

They would have High Explosive (HE), Armor Piercing (AP) and maybe canister. Your basic RUss would get a free supply of its own ammo, (e.g. LRBTs would get free HE rounds, Vanquishers get free AP rounds), and each 'special' round you get would cost more. Maybe, 5 for HE, 10 for AP and Canister. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2731142.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/364403/2731142.page GMT Re:More Leman Russ options... Psycannon sponsons.
Hull mounted Heavy Incinerator.

You jelly, Grey Knights?

In all seriousness, I do like the idea of the missile launcher Russ. Sort of a Whirlwind ripoff but there ya go. Heavy 4, twin linked might be a bit OP... but anything less and I'd probably always prefer the Battlecannon.

Definitely like twin-linked Heavy Stubber. Defensive sponsons would be delightful.
