I'm thinking Malcador Heavy Tank with giant flamer... maybe akin to a Titan Inferno Cannon?

Given that we are/were supposed to be getting hte Phantom Titan in time for Christmas, I find myself oddly unmoved by this teaser.:p

Burn-diggety!

though strange "boat shaped hull" on the trailer, not implying it might be anphibious but just looks odd.

I cannot agree more! Thank you for posting it but all I feel is, "ohh look a trailer for your IG stuff," and then I yawn.

Bah, trailers are for vacations and moving. It's like sticking guns on a minivan and trying to pass it off as a tank.

[Col.Gravis]

No, no, trailers are for immolation - they've basicly lifted the trailer from the Churchill Crocodile, a British WW2 Flamer Tank. Bar the oversized pressure tank, the design is basically identical.

Afterall, do you really want to carry all that highly explosive fuel inside the tank with the crew?

yeah, there is a practicality issue here: Trailers make it happen!

[DrLove42]

As long as it has rules that if it moves over 6" a turn, the trailer jack-knifes, rolls over and explodes it'll be accurate

Or has to re-roll succesful dangerous terrain tests...

Alternativly it could be supply wagon full of rum for the commanders, and confers the rules that all the characters are too pissed to care and re-roll all failed leadership tests....

[Deadlift]

Oh wow yet something more for the IG, I don't give a rats *** what it is :mad:

[plawolf]

You, my friends, clearly do not recognise the significance of what this is.

It is the result of top secret =I= research and is so sensitive, it is only known by its codename of 'keg'.

This is the special weapon that will finally make cc guard viable.

All IG units that come within base to base contact with the 'keg' shall gain FNP, fearless, furious charge and brown thirst USRs.

Broke thirst USR states that all units benefiting from the effects of the 'keg' must take a leadership test each turn. If they fail, they must move towards the 'keg' at full speed. If a commisar comes within 6" of a unit under the influence of the 'keg', the unit is summarly executed.
