The Gorgon Armoured Assault Transport provides heavily armored transport to large numbers of troops, often charging to the front lines, offloading and using its various sponsons to lay down withering amounts of fire before retreating back to Imperial lines. The Gorgon is known to be used by the Death Korps of Krieg and specialized siege regiments. It is an open topped tank, armed with Heavy Stubbers, and additional sponson mounted weapons - especially Mortars, Heavy Bolters or Heavy Flamers. There are rumors of a closed top version of the Gorgon with turret mounts with sponsoned heavy bolter or stubbers.
