40k's silliest units

[Stephen James Hand]

Ok, I know in 40k you have to accept that most of the units don't make much logical sense, like despite the fact that the main battle tank is already obsolete, tanks with targeting systems so primitive they can't even fire accurately on the move (i.e. 1970's technology) dominate the battlefields of the 41st millennium. 'Making sense' will always take a back seat to visual appeal in 40k, as it should. But some units that have graced the grimdark's battlefields over the years have been sillier than others. Post your favourite 'silly' 40k units.

Here's some to get the ball rolling:

Squat Land Train



The ultimate expression of the fact that there's no better battlefield armoured formation than 'close single file'... I wonder if the guy who suggested each car having it's own engine so they could go where they liked got fired?

Attilan Rough Riders

Horse cavalry? Are you kidding me? Putting aside their obvious limitations in futuristic combat, the idea that the Imperial Navy has to fit it's troop transports with stables to get these bozos into the fight in the first place is pretty comical.

Eldar Weapon Platform



The Eldar may have the strange, otherworldly technology required to mount weapons on floating platforms, but remote controlled floating platforms? Nah, still gonna need two fellas to push it about

Sisters of Battle Exorcist



I'm amazed nobody thought of using a church organ as the starting point for an artillery tank design sooner...

Eldar War Walker (2nd edition)



Nope, can't see any problems with this design.

Thunderwolf Cavalry
