36' means you will most likely have to move forward and then leave yourself open to being destroyed more as you get closer to assaulting units as well as melta-range.

But I wish it had an extra 12 inches on its range. This variant is very very good at blowing up tanks. Armoured ceramite is the only one worth taking here but again with the Venator variant it makes it very expensive, so I would probably recommend you take this or sponsons as you're now pushing points that would afford you something better anyway! Other options include a hunter killer missile, a dozer blade, an auxiliary drive and armoured ceramite. This does make the Venator very expensive however. I think I would almost always take the lascannons over the heavy bolters as the heavy bolters are unlikely to hurt whatever you normally shoot at with the Venator variant, and lascannons add more duality to what you can do with the Battle Tank. However in the case of the battle tank it might as well then just shoot at flyers!Įither variant can take the option of having a pair of sponsons, these can be either heavy bolters or lascannons. The extra armour is an excellent defence against having your main weapon being made less efficient or redundant respectively. Other stock equipment includes a searchlight, smoke launchers AND extra armour.

However the Battle tank has a hull mounted version and the Venator has a pintle mounted variant. In addition to their main armaments both of the Sicaran variants come with heavy bolters.
