So was he. That top turret is a Stormhammer Cannon (60", S9, AP2, Primary Weapon, 7" blast, Shred, Pinning) with co-axial multi-laser.
It's far too short to be a Vanquisher Battle Cannon.
That statline makes me happy.
Read the above in a Tachikoma voice.
Yep, it is positively bristling with guns.
If I'm not mistaken the Storm Hammer was supposed to be used for urban pacification / street fighting which is why it has so many side facing Heavy Bolters on it. However I find that idea hilarious, it must bull doze it's way through buildings, or Imperial streets are very, very wide.
it basically went:
"Lord, I have made this new tank, I call it, the Baneblade. what do you think?"
"hmmmmmmm"
"you don't like it?"
"no no, it is fine, great, really. it is just... I imagined it would have more guns..."
"more guns?"
"yes, I think so. definitely."
"well, I suppose I can give it a go..."
Twelve monkeys, eleven hats. One monkey is sad.
It's been my favourite superheavy since I got into the hobby back when... well, it was a LONG time ago. I've begged and bothered Forgeworld for YEARS to have this made. I remain firm in the belief that they have made this just to shut me up.
And to drain me of every penny I earn....

One turret mounted Stormhammer Cannon
One co-axial mounted multi-laser
Six sponson mounted multi-lasers
One hull mounted dual Battlecannon
One hull mounted lascannon.
The multi-lasers can be upgraded to Heavy Flamers, Heavy Bolters or Lascannons. And as the Lascannons come at a 'per swap' cost, you can mix and match the dakka!
Can also have a pintle mounted Heavy Flamer or Multi-laser. And up to 4(!) Hunter Killer Missiles....
IT OWNS ALL THE PEWS!
