Hi!
The baneblade was the first super heavy wasn't it? Or was it released with the shadow swords?

Yes, IIRC, they were first released at about the same time, back with SM1 a long, a long time ago ...

Lucky dog! I wish I had some more. And Commissar, whatever you do just remember: "There's no such thing as too many superheavy tanks!"

Especially in Epic:A, since they have a much higher survival rate than in Epic 40k. Sigh. All my pretty tanks burning...what sad memories. 
my 2 cents

I know a "Cpt. Krueger" said that during the E40K "period" ... , it's in a W/D somewhere ! With SM1 the Baneblade Mk.1 and Shadowsword Mk.1 were released. With SM2, the Stormhammer and Stormblade, respectively. Then E40K the B/B Mk.2 and S/S Mk.2, plus F/W released 2 versions of the B/B Mk.3, and one S/S Mk.3 as well as the Stormblade Mk.2 and Stormsword Mk.1 ... confused yet !  I have anywhere between 1-3 of each of the AFVs in my IG Rgts. They are heavy AFVs, so are fewer compared to the L/Russ MBTs.

Hi!
Super heavy survivability in net epic is "scaleable". You can either use short concise rules to make them more resilient or full fledged damage tables for maximum ruggedness.
