![]() ![]() It required 6 men to work in an extremely cramped place (with only 3 escape routes!) and operate very powerful guns which would be better placed on a static platform. It is a slow (35/21 km/h on/off-road) but heavily armoured tank with a huge profile. Note: I'm not sure are those values current, but this was the closest info that I've found for the 9th edition of WH 40kĮDIT: I've found quite a detailed analysis (from a modern point of view) of WH40k tanks: In contrast, both Land Raiders and Baneblades are treated with the utmost respect as artefacts. ![]() ![]() Leman Russ tanks are relatively cheap and mass-produced on a story level, used in great numbers as an "armoured fist" smashing through the enemy. However, this is because the Baneblade is in a completely different category of units than Russ and Land Raider which is called "Lords of War" and it is reserved for either super-heavy units or super-powerful heroes (for example, Space Marines have a super-heavy tank called Astraeus, which is even more powerful than Baneblade, with power level 35 and cost 675 points). ![]() Still, the Raider has stronger armour and more powerful offensive capabilities.īut if we consider a Baneblade Heavy Tank, we can see that it is a clear winner: If you'd want to look at a pure tank, such as Predator (8/120), you could see that Russ has a certain advantage. It has a power level of 15 and cost 285 points, but part of it might come from the fact, that a Land Raider is considered also as a transport unit. For example, a squad of 4 Space Marines Intercessors with a sergeant has a power level 5 and a base cost of 20 points per unit (which can be modified by adding equipment), while a squad of 10 Gretchin has a power level 2 with a cost of 5 points each.Īs you can see, a single tank has a power level of 10 and cost 140 points. Without looking for details, each model in the WH40k is described as having a certain "power rating" as well as a "point value", which offers a bit better granularity showing how "good" a given unit is. If you are happy with the answer from the tabletop game, there we can have a clear winner: ![]()
