Cities of Sigmar – Steam Tank

Clanking monstrosities of steel and iron, Steam Tanks rattle across the battlefield, blasting away at targets with their cannons and steam-spewing guns while grinding yet more to paste beneath their wheels. This mechanical behemoth of metal and flame is an expedition’s last line of fire, capable of shooting superheated steam from its turret or blasting apart foes with the cannon mounted upon its prow. As Steam Tanks can be quite temperamental, with every inch of their massive surface concealing cogs and machinery, the crews of such behemoths maintain them even during battle with meticulous rituals and checks. Though their drivers are often human, Steam Tanks will travel close to the duardin Cogsmiths of the Ironweld Arsenal, a guild that specialises in the wielding of blackpowder and the creation of war engines. Any expedition worth its cost in Aqua Ghyranis knows that where there are machines, there are malfunctions – and a skilled duardin engineer can repair a defective war machine in a matter of hours. Steam Tank crews try to get in the good graces of such engineers, knowing that to do so will pay dividends if their vehicles are damaged in battle.
