Editing Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Questoris Knight Crusade (30k) (section)

===Acastus Knight Asterius===

Just like every flavour of Knight (from Armigers to Questoris to Cerastus) has a Mechanicum version, now so does the Acastus chassis. The result is the Acastus Knight Asterius. A dangerous looking motherfucker with rules that do not quite live up to its intimidating visage. The Asterius rocks two twin-linked souped-up Conversion Beam Cannons, that are deadly in close range, but even deadlier from afar. The cannons keep their Str 10, but the further the target is, the higher the AP and the better the selection of special rules get and the larger the blast. At maximum range (42"), this mad lad fires two twin-linked Str 10 Ap1 massive blasts with wrecker and sunder. 
On top of that (literally, in this case) it rocks a Karacnos mortar battery, the exact copy of what the Karacnos tank gets. A lacklustre mortar battery with a plethora of special rules like fleshbane, rad-phage, ignores cover and pinning.

Despite this, the Porphyrion is still the better pick.
