	The '''Stormlord''' is designed with but one purpose: to waste [[MEQ]]s. With the most dakka seen in Imperial armies to date. (you can still have more though) in the form of a [[Vulcan Mega-Bolter]], the ability to have up to 20 of its 40 passengers fire from its fighting platform (each heavy weapons team counts as 2 models, so tack on another ten heavy bolters) and the option to have up to ten Heavy Bolters (technically 5 twin heavy bolters, but yes), this tank WILL END enemy infantry! Unfortunately the main gun has the same casemate-mounted setup as the Shadowsword, making it impossible for the Stormlord to turn its Vulcan Mega-Bolter around without turning the entire tank around. [[Derp\|In theory this would be a pain in the ass when fighting in close and narrow environments like urban areas, places where the Stormlord is meant to shine the best. Thankfully 8th Edition does not use weapon arcs, so this is not an issue.]] As of 8th Edition this is probably one of the best super-heavy, anti-infantry tanks in the game due to the amount of firepower that you get. The Mega-Bolter alone gives you 20 s6 ap-2 shots at 60" range. If you take four sponsons, throw in another 30 s5 ap-1 shots at 36" range, and 4 s9 ap-3 shots at 48" range from the lascannon mounted on each sponson. Just for shits and giggles it also has two side-mounted [[Heavy Stubber]]s, and let's face it, you're probably going to give it a third [[Heavy Stubber]] for the pintle mount too, because why wouldn't you? Then, on top of all of that, you get 20 models shooting out of the top, too. As an added bonus, the Mega-Bolter does 2 wounds per hit, meaning that this is an ideal weapon for dealing with smug Primaris players. In short, even if you roll very poorly you're virtually guaranteed to take out at least one MEQ squad a turn, while horde armies like Orks and Tyranids will just get mown down like chaff. The full IFV to the Banehammer and Doomhammer's assault gun/tank destroyer hybrids.		The '''Stormlord''' is designed with but one purpose: to waste [[MEQ]]s.

	The Chaos legions have their own version called the '''Decimator''', which is, in fact, an early pre-production model super-heavy tank that would later lead to the development of the Baneblade. It has replaced its bolters with lots and lots of Reaper Autocannons, resulting in it being far nastier against medium armor, though its main cannon is not turreted, meaning the entire tank has to turn to fire it. They also use the chassis for [[Tower of Skulls]]. The [[Macharius Heavy Tank]] is created as "second-generation Baneblades", as a supplement tank to Baneblades.
