A Banesword is a derivation of the famous Shadowsword, modified to carry the Quake Cannon instead of a Volcano Cannon. The power of the Quake Cannon, combined with the armour of a super-heavy, has established the Banesword as the pinnacle of Imperial siegecraft. Many Imperial commanders would be willing to exchange two regiments for a single Banesword; such is the reputation of this tank. Indeed, Imperial combat doctrine holds an honoured place for the Banesword.The Banesword is armed with three twin-linked Heavy Bolters, two Lascannons, a Quake Cannon, a Searchlight, and Smoke Launchers. It may be upgraded with a Hunter-killer Missile and pintle-mounted Heavy Stubber/Storm Bolter. It may also add two extra sponsons, each with one lascannon and one twin-linked Heavy Bolter or twin-linked Heavy Flamer. It may instead choose to remove its sponsons in order to reinforce its side armour.
