Does anyone know if there is a breakdown somewhere of the relative pros and cons of the various Leman Russ tanks as a mount for a tank commander (with or without Pask)? I'm intrigued with the unit concept but I'm undecided about which tank benefits the most from a commander's BS and the option to split fire from his unit. Cheers

We're trying to write the definitive Imperial Guard/Astra Militarum tactica treatise here. There's a review of all the in-codex Leman Russ variants, Tank Commanders, and Pask written by yours truly. tl:dr, Tank Commanders are the most welcome on an Exterminator, Vanquisher, and Demolisher, while Pask is at his most frightening in a Vanquisher or a Punisher. |

I find pask is an executioner doesn't let you take advantage of crack shot very well, however the prefered enemy is a major bonus especially if you have an executioner squad with him. Also why the demolisher? Because of the rerolls? |

That, and the Full Throttle order to help get it into range. Pask doesn't do as much for the Demolisher as he does for a Vanquisher or Punisher (especially when you consider that Pask turns a crap tank like the Punisher into something that can literally kill anything on the board within 24" of his tank).
