So what are the closest historical vehicle proxy for 40K?

SturmTiger look like a Vindicator
The Mark V tank can be seen as a turretless Leman russ.

Are there any other historical vehicle with a 40K counterpart?

The M3 Lee would make a good Leman Russ.

Would WW1 tanks work for the Russ?

Chimeras can be proxied well by BMPs, and there's a soviet SPG that's basically a Basilisk. There's also something for a Manticore, but I can't recall what

M113 or FV432 make good Rhinos

>>54738343
Yes, though being so long they make better Malcadors
>>
>>54738343
Look much more like Land Raiders

Daily reminder

>>54739838
I like that the tanks arent ridiculously OP.

It shows that technology is advanced in some ways, but still inferior in others.

>>54740065
Man just how powerful is a lascannon then?
>>
>>54738573
a BUK-M1 for manticore probably.
>>
>>54739838
Pretty sure that Leman Russ armor has been reconned to be inches thick.
>>
>>54739838
Also I'm pretty sure the HL230 engine is from WWII Germany.

You are both close, but not quite.

Use the flip function on MS paint for a Char 1 bis.
>way too small turret
>Big AT gun in front (since the Leman Russ classic generally comes with a lascannon)
>Tracks that loop over tank without actually having the trench-crossing capacity of the Mark series tanks
>Ridiculously heavy, partially sloped front armor
