In regards to Imposter's original comment:


 * The armour doesn't have so much need to be slanted if it's that damn thick as it is on a Baneblade. When you build a tank the size of a house that matches a Baneblade in firepower and coolness, you can give that sloping armour. Perhaps you could arm it with your god-awful skill as an article critic?


 * The enemy may try to flank us, that's what we have our supporting infantry and aircraft for. When you design a tank, you can try it wothout combined-arms support and watch it fail badly.
 * The main gun won't be removed by enemy anti-tank guns if we fire first, which we will with our Mega Battle Cannon that outranges their anti-tank guns, Demolisher Cannon that easily destroys the blockhouses the guns are in, and our Heavy Bolters . When you design a tank, you can try giving it god-awful offensive range and no secondary armament (admittedly the Baneblade goes a little overboard on secondaries) and watch as it fails badly.
 * The Baneblade is awesome. Practicality comes second to awesomeness in 40K. Thus your entire argument is null and void on the grounds trying to use logic and practicality in 40K.
