The <s>[[Matilda II]]</s>, <s>[[Churchill]]</s>, <s>[[M4 Sherman]]</s>, <s>[[M6 Heavy Tank]]</s>, <s>M26 Pershing</s> '''Rogal Dorn Battle Tank''' is a new [[Imperial Guard]] AFV, revealed as part of their big 2022 refresh. More akin to a ''Heavy Tank'' than an MBT, it is a chonkier and shootier big brother of the old reliable [[Leman Russ Battle Tank|Leman Russ]] and seems to be an non-Forge World alternative to the Macharius as a [[Awesome|Heavy Main Battle Tank]].

==Overview==
Like its namesake it seems to specialize in siege work, both breaking and anchoring defensive lines with its wide variety of guns. Its main turret can carry either ''two'' [[Battle_Cannon|Battle Cannons]] or an '''[[Oppressor Cannon]]''', an anti-armour gun that can supposedly one-shot anything up to and including a [[Chaos Knight]]. It can also carry a hull-mounted [[Castigator Gatling Cannon]] or [[Pulveriser Cannon]], a baby version of the [[Demolisher_Cannon|Demolisher cannon]], along with the usual array of extra weapons: hull-mounted [[Heavy Stubber]]s or [[Meltagun]]s, sponson-mounted [[Heavy Bolter]]s or [[Multi-Melta]]s, and last of all a pintle-mounted [[Heavy Stubber]] in case you feel like reenacting the last twenty minutes of ''Fury'' with [[Your Dudes]]. Some of them have Side Sponsons, some don't. Stay tuned for updates as to how this thing performs.

Size guess put it north of a [[Leman Russ Battle Tank|Leman Russ]] but smaller then a [[Baneblade]] so we're in [[Macharius Heavy Tank]] territory. Probably meant to be used as a budget lord of war.

==Inspiration==

Looking at the thing's design, you see a bit of every ww2 tank at once. Treads like a T-34 with a wrap-around design like a Churchill or rhomboid tank, Side skirts of a Matilda, length and hull gun of an early Churchill, Pershing-like turret, and encrusted with machine guns like every American tank designed before 1940. It also mounts a smaller cannon co-axial to its main cannon when in its tank hunting configuration, making it heavily resemble the M6A1 Heavy tank. It invokes all of these designs without being a direct copy, which is actually a point in GW favor. It also looks more like a proper tank in scale, the Russ has a notable tiny turret (just note the size of the commander's hatch compared to the other all turret size) and this thing looks like you could have an actual crew in there.
