Editing Griffon Heavy Mortar Carrier (section)

== Tabletop ==

The Griffon's heavy mortar isn't especially powerful at only S6 AP -1, especially for a vehicle-mounted mortar, but it ignores cover and line of sight entirely and keeps a respectable 48" range. Its main competition is the [[Wyvern Suppression Tank|Wyvern]]; the Wyvern rerolls wounds, but doesn't ignore cover like the Griffon. Both are pretty much optimized for GEQ targets, but the Guard already has a lot of tools to do this; therefore it's debatable whether the Griffon still has a niche. Aside from that, it's a Chimera chassis with the performance you'd expect out of one.

While the Griffon was occasionally seen in Guard armies in earlier editions of 40k, as of 8th/9th edition the GW model kit is long discontinued and the Forge World version is no longer available either. As such the Griffon is now considered a Legends entry.
