==Crunch== [[File:Hekaton Fan Cutout.jpg|350px|right|thumb|[[Awesome|A pretty goddamned impressive fan cut-out of the Hekaton from]] [[China]]. [https://tieba.baidu.com/p/8023041299?&share=9105&fr=sharewise&is_video=false&unique=941CB1DCE6EE2439A0C22798F6083E1B&st=1663325276&client_type=1&client_version=12.26.5.0&sfc=copy&share_from=post&source=12_16_sharecard_a&red_tag=0574248455 Link to source is here.] ]] Crunchwise, the Hekaton is currently the toughest vehicle in the league armoury with 16W, a toughness of 8, and a 2+ void armour save. M10-6" and a BS that starts at 3 before degrading. Offensively, the Hekaton packs multiple ap -2, 2 Damage weapons. Each comes stock with a Cyclic Ion Cannon (24" Heavy 3D3 S8 AP2 D2), a MATR Autocannon (24" Heavy 6 S7 AP2 D2), and 4 Bolt Cannons (36" HunTR 2 S6 AP2 D2). They also have a Spectral Scanner that grants the Scanner keyword and lets them ignore light cover. The Hekaton is also very flexible and swap friendly, as one can swap the standard layouts. This includes swapping 2 or 4 of the bolt cannons with Ion Beamers (18" HunTR 2 S7 AP-2 D2, BEAM), replacing the Cyclic Ion Cannon with either an SP Heavy Conversion Beamer (30" HunTR 2 s8 ap3 D4, Beam, scores an additional hit if a unit that was hit was wholly outside 15") or a Magna Rail Cannon (36" Heavy 1 S14 AP4 D:2D3+6, Magna-Rail), and replacing the Spectral Scanner with a one-use, 36" non-LOS VLS launcher that shoots out the following: *Ancestor's Vengeance (Heavy D6 S6 AP2 D2, when used against a vehicle, has a Damage of 3, and a wound-roll of 4+ always wound, and specifically not-Blast). *Kin's Wrath (Heavy 2D6, S 6 AP2 D1, blast). *Mountain Breaker (Heavy 1, S10 AP3 6D). Likewise, in terms of its tactical utility, it is capable of carrying the aforementioned 12 INFANTRY models, but could also accommodate those with [[Exo-Armour]] at the expanse of taking 2 slots, with the [[Brôkhyr Exo-Frame|Exo-Frames]] taking 3 slots. In terms of other stats, to return to its impressive 16 W, it translates to having the Hekaton having more wounds than a Russ; equivalent to a [[Repulsor Executioner]] or a god damned ''[[Land Raider]]'', but less than a [[Primarch|Daemon Primarch]] and some [[Tyranid]] Monsters. This is a heavy transport and should be played as such, but with Void Armor making it so that an unlucky opponent cannot re-roll wounds or unlucky damage rolls of 1 or 2, it will be a lot harder to fully destroy than a Repulsor. A [[Brôkhyr Iron-Master|Brôkhyr Iron-Master or Forgemaster]] is a natural pairing with the Hekaton. They can boost the ballistic skill of its numerous weapons, repair it, and (in the case of the Forgemaster's warlord trait) negate a failed save each battle round. Overall, a god damned monster of an IFV/MBT hybrid.
