Description The Leveler is a testament of armored warfare in the Dark Age of Technology. It is a mesh of many archaeotechs working together to produce an extremely deadly main battle tank.

As eyewitnesses claim, it is approximately the size of a Macharius heavy tank, and in fact wields twin-linked cannons just like the Macharius. That is where similarities end however.

It's armor is extremely durable, being able to endure anti-tank fire without any loss in performance. Analysis of the wreckage would in fact suggest that the armor is made out of a composite with great many similarities to metaplas used in Imperial Titans. And yet despite its heavy armor, it is still as fast as its smaller brethren and can easily keep pace with them.

Its main armament appears to be twin-linked Acccelerator cannons. Such armaments are relics of the Great Crusade. It is said that it armor-piercing ammunition could rend any physical armor apart, going so far as to damage even the Mechanicus's God-Machines. Combined with sophisticated loading and fire-control systems, this tank can repeatedly annihilate anything smaller than itself at great ranges.

It is hypothesized by the Mechanicus that this tank may in fact be a predecessor to the much-venerated Baneblade. Despite its smaller size, its appears to contain many components used by the Fellblades of the Great Crusade, including the metaplas armor and the Accelerator cannons. Others suggest that the Baneblade arose sometime during or after the Men of Iron's first rebellion, given how Men of Iron seem make use of this tank over the Baneblade. There is still fervent debate over the credence of each theory.

Commanders debate combat tactics against this vehicle with equal enthusiasm. Unlike the Imperial Baneblade, where an Imperial Guard regiment is fortunate to own one of these machines, the Men of Iron can field the Leveler en mass within the month. Baring certain extraordinary circumstances, the introduction of this tank to the battlefield all but guarantees an Iron Tide victory in open combat, for few races in the galaxy can muster the firepower to annihilate so many powerful foes. It is for this reason that commanders learn that if they wish to strike the Iron Tide, they must strike early, strike hard, and strike fast.

For if the Men of Iron are able to bring these vehicles to the battlefield, they have already won.

A very beastly tank type indeed.
