40k Warscrolls: Goliath Trucks

It's been on my plate for a while now, but I finally finished a first draft of the Trucks for the Genestealer Cults (a.k.a. Broodkin).  I have found that many transports have two different versions; the Rhino version, and the Razorback version.  One that is a pretty dedicated transport, while the other has the same chassis and high concept, but packs more punch with less transport space.  So it is with the Goliath Truck and its big brother the Goliath Rockgrinder.



The Goliath Truck rocks a Heavy Stubber and a Twin-linked Autocannon, which is nothing to scoff at.  It's a little less durable than a Rhino or a Chimera (it's a mining truck... so that was to be expected), and it's loaded down with Demolition Charges that embarked units can chuck at the enemy.


The more severe Rockgrinder lacks an Autocannon, but more than makes up for it with its more severe weaponry both at range and in melee.  Its Drilldozer Blade packs just as much punch as a Deff Rolla!  I'm not sure what else to say about these two, except that they're here :)

Also, if you go looking at the Broodkin warscrolls, you may notice that I've scrapped the Human keyword from the whole faction.  I decided that it was a bit cluttery, and that the most likely use of that keyword would be to give zealot types re-rolls against non-Human units (which these certainly are ideologically speaking).  So, that's my reasoning, anyhow, enjoy an almost fully operational Broodkin list!
