Games Workshop is exhibiting off the scale of the Rogal Dorn in comparison with the opposite iconic tanks of the Astra Militarum. How does it stack up?

The Astra Militarum is getting a brand new Battle Tank with the arrival of the Rogal Dorn. It’s a powerful wanting tank and ever because it’s debut people have been questioning about it’s dimension. Well now we don’t should guess anymore as a result of Games Workshop simply dropped a dimension comparability that ought to reply that query. Turns out it’s larger than a Leman Russ and smaller than a Baneblade…

“As you can see, it’s got a lot of guns – but just how chunky is it? And how does it stack up against the legendary Leman Russ? We parked them next to each other to find out, and even dragged a gigantic Baneblade out of the garage to really set the scale in order.”

Rogal Dorn Size Comparison

Well there you’ve it! The Rogal Dorn slots in completely between the Leman Russ and the Baneblade. I additionally recognize the brand new Astra Militarum Guardsman there for scale. But that’s not the one manner the Rogal Dorn compares. Games Workshop can also be showcasing the the stats and the way they’ve change for all of those autos.

These two tanks are actually shut to one another and you may see how the Rogal Dorn has the benefit within the stat division. I’d wish to see the factors to get a greater comparability and likewise an inventory of all of the accessible weapons and their respective factors — however you get the concept.

There’s additionally a brand new weapon rule that’s going to use to each of those tanks.

“…[the] new Turret Weapon rule* which allows tank turrets to target any enemies they want even while locked in melee, and also adds a nifty +1 to their hit roll as a bonus.”

Yikes — on each accounts! Either of those tank cannons goes to be dropping shells with authority! With that further +1 to hit that ought to imply they’re placing their targets at a 3+ usually. Oh and for those who thought it was solely the Main Battle Tanks that have been getting some consideration guess once more. The Baneblade obtained a lift, too.

Let that stat-line sink in for a second. Toughness 9 with 30 wounds and a 2+ armor save? That’s going to be one robust tank to chew on. Oh and it’s cheaper now, too!

“Your first two sponsons packing lascannons and twin heavy bolters are rolled into its base cost, making it significantly cheaper than before. And don’t worry – you can still add an extra two sponsons if 12 barrels of death weren’t enough. Those are now cheaper too!”

That rumbling you hear is all of the tread-heads on the market cheering. I hope you’re able to face down the may of the Imperial Armor because it rolls down the tabletop!

It’s about to be TANKS-giving in any case.
