I haven't tried it yet, but I think it's definitely got a place in the right list. Unless I'm missing something, it's the cheapest AV14 Vehicle any Army can put on the Table, the extra accuracy from the Coaxial Storm Bolter helps make up for the smaller Blast on the main cannon, and there are a lot of times at the start or end of Games when having the full Cruising Speed distance available could be pretty useful.
Needs to be a mobile list, tho, I think. If it's just standing still and blasting away, the basic Russ is probably worth the extra 20 Points.

I am surprised that they still make the Conqueror at all. The only reason that it was ever invented was during third when you couldn't move and fire ordinance. I haven't used one since.

The current version is actually pretty cool. I think they did a good job of differentiating it from the regular Russ in a way that fits the fluff and results in reasonable Rules.

If I ever pick up more tanks, I think I'd like a pair of these. Just from reading the Gaunt's Ghosts books (namely honor guard) I've really started to like them.
