Dawn of War 2: Retribution CO-OP ft. Shar Dundred - Part 14 

As for land raider lore - one shown here is a redeemer variant (swaps sponson lascannons for sponson hellstorm cannons(heavy flamer on steroids) and hull heavy bolters for assault cannons and can take a multimelta for anti-armor). Only 2 chapters are known to use this variant - salamanders (specialists in all heat-based weapons), and grey knights. There are more variants - crusader (modified by black templars with sponson hurricane bolters(think 6 regular bolters put together for a wall of solid shot thrown at the enemy), assault cannons and expanded troop carrying capacity(by removing power banks for lascannons), or helios - done by red scorpions who put a whirlwind artillery tank's turret on their damaged raiders to solve one particular problem campaign of theirs. All of these mods were unsanctioned (and quite frowned upon) by the martian techpriests(if it wasn't mentioned in their tech data, you weren't allowed to do it) at first, tho wider spread adoption by other marine chapters forced them to acknowledge them as offical variants. Even if data was found that said you could, the damned martians would debate its merits for very very long time(an aircraft design needed almost 500 years before getting approval, in one instance!), and in general, marines don't pay too much heed to them anyway, the needs must and all that, in their eyes. Back to the redeemer, there's an similar in role and armaments exclusive predator variant blood angels use called "baal-pattern"(after their homeworld) predator, whose turret cannon can be either a twin assault cannon or a hellstorm cannon, with optional heavy flamers as sponson mounts, and they still refuse to share the data of it in this point of time and lore.

No offence meant or implied, perhaps a check up of eyesight is in order - the first baneblade died due to severe...melta poisoning(there was a marine melta squad right there where it died). Regardless of faction, the boss fight ends pretty quickly. Baneblade does have all of its "eleven barrels of death" here(which are as follows - turret main gun + coaxial autocannon(2), hull-mount demolisher cannon(1), 3 sets of twin heavy bolters(6, mounted up front next to demolisher and on sponsons) and 2 lascannons(1 of each mounted above sponsons), just that the 2 most damaging ones are set to abilities(the main turret cannon and hull-mounted demolisher cannon). The pre-heresy marines also used baneblades under "fellblade" moniker. As for land raider lore, I'll split this off into a separate bit for everyone's convenience.

IT IS THE BANEBLADEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

aside from that playing as the SM grants you the land raider but as any other faction the baneblade will always gets destroyed after you obtained the super heavies

Of course the Inquisitor questions getting the Baneblade. She has so many...questions.

The Baneblade is pretty powerful, but its strongest weapons are tied to its abilities so good job remembering to to use them. Off to the final mission in the next video, and the end of DoW2 series. I am going to miss it.

The annoying thing about Castor's turret is that it doesn't refund resources when it dies, so it's one of the only ways to permanently spend/lose power and requisition in the campaign. There's still a place for it, but it's a pretty obnoxious downside to an otherwise-good ability.

BANEBLAAAAAADE

What’s better than one baneblade, two baneblades
