So it seems it was planed to incorporate the Capitol Imperialis and the Lebviathan in one datasheed. So it's essentially one War Engine with two different names.
But what stats should we use? And what name should it have? Jervis seems to like the name Capitol Imperials (as i do too) but in recent Fluff (Codex Eye of Terror, WD fluff about Armageddon) the Leviathan only is mentioned.
The experimental Capitol Imperialis Stats by Jervis are as following:
0-1 CI: 500 pt. CAPITOL IMPERIALIS (Armageddon Pattern) <<< The Capitol Imperialis is an immensely well protected mobile HQ. It is usually garrisoned by own its own company of Imperial Guard troops. Void shields, thick armour and sturdy construction make it resistant to enemy fire, while the garrison and dozens of internal and external defence systems make it very difficult to assault.
Type Speed Armour Close Combat Firefight War Engine 10cm 4+ 6+ 5+
Weapons: 1 Behemoth Cannon (F), 1 Battlecannon (LF), 1 Battlecannon (RF), numerous automated defence systems (ADS)

Critical Damage: Internal explosions cause an extra point of damage and inflict hits on D6 transported units (attacker's choice as to who is hit).
My experimental Levathan stats are as the following:
0-1 Leviathan: 500 pt Imperial Guard Leviathan Command Centre (Mars Pattern)
