Just going back to the Hellcannon again as I see still a lot of people claiming how useless and vulnerable they are. Here is a recap of how mine have done -
Hellcannon Count
1 - Missed every shot. Killed Vamp Thrall in combat + Skelly unit with the help of my Knights in the rear.
2 - Killed Whole Black Orc Unit, Whole Orc Unit, Orc BSB, Whole Squig Hopper unit, on its own in combat.
3 - Misfire took a wound and a level off an Elven mage, also got me Seizures off which killed 12 Spearmen. Also killed 2 Eagles.
4 - Killed 8 Spear Dark Elves, 8 Black Guard, 4 Corsairs, Half Points for a Hydra.
5 - Killed 6 Horrors and Kairos Fateweaver.
6 - Killed 7 Dwarf Warriors and an Organ Gun.
7 - Killed a unit of Skinks and a unit of Sauros.
8 - Killed 7 Black Guard, Was Finally killed by a Hydra.
9 - Killed nothing at all, killed by a Vamp Lord.
10 - 2 Cannons. Kill Cold One Chariot, Kill 5 Black Guard. 1 is Killed by a Stars Assassin. 3 Dark Riders, Half Points for a Hydra. 2nd is Killed by a Hydra.
11 - 2 Cannons. 6 Nurgle Warriors, 4 Khorne Warriors. 1 Cannon is killed by a Shaggoth. Hellcannon helps break and run down Nurgle unit with 2 more kills and a flank charge.
12 - Does 3 wounds to a Tomb Scorp but is killed by a pair of them.
13 - Kills 5 Sauros, holds an Ancient Steg.
14 - Kills 3 Plague Bearers and 2 Seekers, is killed by magic and the Seekers.
15 - Kills 7 Chosen. Kills a BSB, is killed by Chosen.
16 - Kills 3 Grail Knights, 1 Knight of the Realm, 5 Knights Errant, 1 Bret Lord.
17 - Kills about 10 Sauros/Temple Guard and 2 Razordons.
18 - Kills Vamp Thrall, 2 Black Knights, Half Points for Vamp Lord.
So 20 Hellcannons used, 9 have died, that being to -
Vamp Lord,
Vamp Lord,
A Pair of Tomb Scorps,
Great Weapon Shaggoth,
Warshrined Chosen with BSB,
Hydra,
Hydra,
Magic + Seekers of Slaanesh,
Assassin with Rending Manbane Stars.
For these kills -
2 Vamp Thralls,
Skelly Unit,
2 Black Knights,
Half Points for Vamp Lord.
20 Black Guard,
Cold One Chariot,
8 Spearmen,
4 Corsairs,
2 Half Points for Hydras.
Black Orc Unit,

Orc BSB,
Squig Hopper Unit.
6 Horrors,
3 Plague Bearers,
2 Seekers,

7 Dwarf Warriors,

8 Nurgle Warriors,
4 Khorne Warriors,
7 Chosen,

2 Razordons.
3 Grail Knights,
1 Knight of the Realm,
5 Knights Errant,

2 Eagles,

So getting about 5400 Points, losing me 1850 Points. Not counting units panicked and so stalling them or units that have failed Terror tests etc. I only gave banner points to units it broke and ran down/off the board on its own.
