The Falchion uses a potent weapon which combines technologies fielded in the Fellblade and the Shadowsword super-heavy tank. The Falchion’s twin-mounted Volcano cannon is one of the most powerful vehicle-mounted, anti-tank weapons in the Imperium’s arsenal and it requires such an investment in resources to construct just a single example that its use is limited to the Legiones Astartes. Even then, the Falchion is so rare that most Legions maintain but a handful, reserved for use against the largest of enemy war machines.
The Falchion was developed long before the outbreak of the Horus Heresy and as such its prey was not the enemy Titans it would later see such extensive combat against. As the Great Crusade expanded ever outward, the Expeditionary fleets encountered a staggering array of foes, some of whom were of a truly gargantuan scale, but all were set to ravening flame by the touch of the Falchion’s Volcano cannon.
Emperor chaos titan u say? I say twin-mounted volcano cannon!!!
It's funny how 40k is known to be ridiculously over the top, and it's "just" pretty much a nerfed version of 30k.
If 1d4chan is accurate, here's something funnier in a laugh or you'll cry kind of way. The STC called the Baneblade a "Light Battle Tank". Think about that for a moment.
I really like the shape of this model. Visually, it might be my favourite of Forge World's Horus Heresy stuff.
