|  steam tanks are steam tanks worth the 300pts when a giant is only 205pts there both just as dangerous to themselves.

Blog Entries: 1 | because, while giants are well 'ard, a steam tank is harder than a metal box full of diamond coated coffin nails! the strength and toughness are comparable but the tank has more wounds and can do WAY more damage to opponents in both shooting and combat phases as it carries a cannon and causes nothing but impact hits in combat (upto 15 s6 hits!)

| Well at full wounds with a steam tank you can always use 4 steam points without any risk as you will always roll under or equal to 10. So with a cannon, steam gun, 10 wounds, 1+ save, immunity to magic(except strenght based spells), the ability to shoot while in combat and the sheer psychological effect on your opponent i would say that its worth it. |
