Crassus Armored Assault Transport
 This page is needs images. Help plz. |
The CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT is one of the heaviest armored transports available to the Imperial Guard. Though it does not carry as many soldiers as the Gorgon (with which it seems to share a chassis, as well as the Macharius), it is fully enclosed and armored all around.
Praetor Armored Assault Launcher
Much as the Chimera was modified into the Manticore Rocket Launcher by adding a missile launcher to the top, the Praetor Armored Assault Launcher mounts a massive Praetor missile launcher instead of a transport bay. It can launch Foehammer missiles for cracking armor, Firestorm missiles for blasting large infantry formations, or Pilum (Latin, "Javelin") missiles for anti-air defense.
Considering that the Praetor launcher has no limit on ammunition (during the game, anyway), a comparison to the Rhino-based Whirlwind might be more suitable.
