Best Russ variant for your tank commander?

[TorvaldTheMild]

Just wondering what are all your go to variants for your tank commanders?

The good 'ol battle cannon can't be beat right now. The mere option of the relic battle cannon bumps him up to the top bracket, imo.

 

Discounting that, I'm a fan of the demolisher tank commander. I run it barebones in a catachan group. 2d6 shots at S10 AP-3 and Dd6 with rerolling each d6 for shots and rerolling 1s to hit is impressively damaging.

Yeah my DKK conqueror battle cannon is a beast.  I like the Annihilator too though.

I wish we could have conqueror or annihilator commanders.

My three must take tank commanders are battle cannon (with hammer of sunderance), executioner, and punisher. If I have the points for pask, he's in the executioner and I bring a demolisher tank commander. Edited November 21, 2019 by HallofStovokor

If vanquishers were any good this edition, my tank commander would be riding one: Has all the range so the officer can stay back to keep an eye on positioning and is a weapon dedicated to dealing with important targets.

 

 

The way it is, it's either punisher, demolisher or battle cannon.

Yeah Vanq's should deal out 3 or D3 mortal wounds plus their normal damage I think.  They are supposed to be tank killers.   I proxy my annihilators with vanquishers as they look so cool and they have that WW1 look, the Alpha ones that is.
