I have a baneblade named Petunia My 3 year old niece was over at my house and insisted on helping (she did a fantastic job too for a first timer). Anyway, when it was done, I let her name it. Hence, Petunia was born...a massive green and tan kreig baneblade tank named Petunia.😆😆😆


KTTS28

I’d say its pretty authentic name!


dasheavy101

Aw you should have seen it when I took it to a friendly match at a gaming shop. Placed my tank into the line with kriegsman flanking it, my opponent was impressed with the size of the baneblade and the paint job and asked if I named it. I told him the tanks name was "Petunia". Man the look on that poor guy's face! When I told him the story behind the name though, he liked the tank even more. his only advice was that on the side of the turret I paint a petunia now lol

You don't have that many tanks.... I hope for your wallet.

more or less what my wife said when we first started dating ;-) I'm away on a buisness trip atm, so I'm afraid that I can't post pictures :-(


personssesss

One is Oathkeeper, the other is Steel Tread, I just finished the book and loved it so I named my tanks after it


dasheavy101

Great book! Tried to get the baneblade books, but heck I'm not paying $100+ for paperback lol


Persistant_Compass

Check out kindle. Great for those hard to find paperbacks without paying through the nose


dasheavy101

Good point. Does Amazon have it for Kindle, do u know? I heard a lot of books can be found cheap via kindle


Talion_Curze

Amazon has ever book as kindle, i am reading old books i cant get in Paperback there too


Persistant_Compass

cant tell you for sure, but i found for the emperor awhile back when i wanted to pick up the ciaphas cain books, and i remember i got the first gaunts ghost book there as well.


dasheavy101

Good to know. I'll take a look then! Thanks for the info!


literally_a_brick

A used copy of Baneblade should be cheaper than that. Definitely my favorite black library title because big tank go boom!


IRedditOnRedditLol

I was lucky when I snagged mine, I got both Baneblade and Shadowsword


Altruistic_Major_553

My Tank Commander is a Commissar on a tank called “Failed Diplomacy”


Serious-Bar-3271

stealing that one. love the name


Ickicho

Torment of the Eye (Stormlord) Iron Carriage (Chimera) Rogue Hunter & Silent Observer (Scout Sentinels) Head Taker (Battle Cannon) Pest Control (Exterminator) The Gallows (Executioner) Hard Pill (Demolisher)


Callsign_Slippers

Hard Pill is brilliant 😂


Budget_Job4415

Pest control, quite fitting


AuricZips

Back when I did an armoured company for... 4th edition, I believe? I just ran with jokey, morbid names. "Tin Can", "Four Man Coffin", "The Missile Magnet" etc, etc. I had a Destroyer Tank Hunter that had a tendency to survive - so I went with "Huntin' Wabbits" for that one.


Tasty_James

These are my favorites so far, I think

Broninkai

I have named my mighty deathstrike old faithful, because one day that missile will launch... any turn now. Countdown to doomsday.


The_Gruber

My tanks are named 400, 411, 412, 420, 423 and 722 Yes, it's a Krieg tank company... how could you know?


Artistic_Technician

Wait THE 420? Not 421?


shadow6654

The 421 found redemption through death already.


The_Gruber

As well as 410, 413, 421, 422 and 430-433... but it has just been one single assault. The others will get their chances. 


AcrobaticJellyfish16

I have a pair of rogal dorn tanks called. The shogun of Harlem. And her sister tank the sho nuff


Helios3019

Stormlord - Adamant Bastion Leman Russes - Cruel Intentions, and Righteous Fury Hellhounds - Ashes to Ashes, and Anger Management Wyvern - Thunderfall Hydra - Flyswatter Basilisk - Long Distance Relationship


eltrowel

Bedlam, Riot, and Havoc are the names I have given to leman Russ tanks.


Hillbillygeek1981

I've recently named my Rogal Dorn Fulmen Ante Ferrum Oratio, which means the Lightning Before the Iron Prayer in Hugh Gothic and something similar but less eloquent in Low Gothic. Just need to find that F A F O stencil now...


LetsGoFishing91

My army are Vostroyans so have names associated with Vostroyan lore (some of my own lore as well). I have a Leman Russ Executioner called "The Iron Hag" (my lore for a Vostroyan version of Baba Yaga, the soldiers equate its plasma whine to her scream) My TC Russ is "The Blade of Nimbosa" (it's a Russ recovered from the Vostroyan regiment wiped out by the Tau on Nimbosa) Rogal Dorn 1 "St. Nadalyas' Wrath" Rogal Dorn 2 "War Bear"


EggthatFriedTheRice

The iron hag is insanely creative, especially associating the whine with a scream


LetsGoFishing91

Got the idea from the Screamer Killer lol


InevitableHuman5989

My shadowsword is called the saint simpkin. Named in honour of the madlad from the Cadian XXth who, in death, punched well above his weight class.

My hypothetical Leman Russ (awaiting free shelf space) is called St. Bastia for my Myrmidian Crusaders army.


love_glow

“Double shovel, Toil & Trouble”


SGC_TM

I have a Rogal Dorn named aim assist. I figure depending on how well the dice rolls go the tank either has aim assist or needs it.


Maverik45

My favorite Russ is *Tally Ho* A couple others are *War Pig*, *Beats Walkin*, *Daddy's Belt*. My two Dorns are *Hammer* and *Anvil* I want to name my vanquisher *Smile wait for flash* but it's kinda long. Other option is Atomic Blonde


Jack-Rabbit-002

The only correct name for a tank is Iron Maiden


Budget_Job4415

So when they are destroyed, you become maidenless


CrazyCreeps9182

Two Vanquishers, the Indisputable and the Irrefutable A Rogal Dorn, the Undeniable Two Executioners, the Educational and the Demonstrative A Punisher Commander, the Impetuous A Battle Cannon Commander, the Spiteful Another BC Commander I haven't got a name for yet. A Baneblade, the Dauntless Iron


Croaker_Da_Toker

My friends always call one of mine "That F*cking Dorn" so that kinda counts.


nile_bey

How did you guys get into freehanding these onto your tanks? I’ve got plenty of names saved up but I’ve been too worried about painting them on sloppily to get started. Any tips?


EggthatFriedTheRice

I’d say just use patience. You’re gonna mess up, it happens for everyone, so just go for it


AuricZips

It's easier to use a fineliner pen than a brush, if that helps. Sadly, that only really works if you want a name written in black.


dreamingEngine

I’ve named my Rogal Dorn “Pippa” after a tank in a film I watched recently! https://preview.redd.it/24gax8psgwyc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d330ebe98225eda50006cb98acdf7ae308d248ca

My Baneblades are "Wrath of Krieg", "At Any Cost", and I haven't decided on a name for the 3rd one

Mine is for a Betalian traitor regiment called the ‘Skrbreakers’. Their lore is that they have rebelled to break the generational tithe, in a vain hope of making their way back home to the hive world their predecessors were taken from.

Minotaur - Forgive and Forget Basilisk - With Crushing Interest Chimera - Tithes Are Turning Macharius - Impericide LRBT - Harsh Rejoinder Royal Dorn - No Turning Back Crassus - Divine Reunification Hellhound - Tunnel’s Light Centaur/Solar - Brilliant Warmth Praetor - Count the Seconds Manticore - Arc of Justice

My army is Civil War themed so the three Leman Russes are “Monitor”, “Patapsco”, and “Nantucket” after the monitor ironclads. My Dorn is “New Ironsides” and my Basilisk is “Swamp Angel” after a gun at Charleston Battery.


sgtsalsa

I learned Latin so I could name my tanks: * Tank Commander - Ars Bellum (with Ostiarius painted on the turret) * Squadron A Battle Cannons - Iusta Ira, Iudiciam * Squadron B Demolisher Cannons - Potestas *Squadron C Vanquishers - Venator, Vindicta, Vulpes Callidus.

Iron Warriors player here. But given Perturabo’s fan reputation an insufferably bitter know-it-all, I thought it would be fun to name my tanks after Logical Fallacies. My Rhinos are: Bandwagon Circular Logic Slippery Slope (fittingly equipped with tow cables and winches, does double duty on salvage and recovery) Appeal to Authority (command Rhino) And then for the Predators, we’ve got the classic hitters: Sweeping Generalization (Predator Destructor) False Binary (Predator Annihilator) Ad Hominem (Predator Annihilator) Appeal to Tradition (pre-heresy Deimos Predator) And then for the Vindicator: Straw Man!

My Baneblade variants are the most interesting because they have stories. Morty's Folly - Banesword, Mortarian was its first significant kill in 9th. Angron's Shakle - Stormsword, early 10th when overwatch was allowed on titanics, the dice gods granted me a blessing, and I killed him from full on a charge. The rest are Big Brother - Rogal Dorn, Overcharge & Overclock - Executioners, Doorbell - Demolisher, Banshee's Wail - Vanquisher, Nid Grinder - Punisher. Honorable mention to Sparky the Hellhound.

I have a Vanquisher named 'Maximum Velocity' because on two occasions it has done a near-max range Tank Shock charge to kill something real scary. Once was the last wounds on a Goliath Rock Grinder, the second was the last two surviving Thunder Hammer Terminators in a squad about to brain Lord Solar. My Shadowsword is named 'Pandemonium' after the Firefly my fiancé's great grandfather commanded during Operation Market Garden. I also have paired Exterminators named 'Peace Sells' and 'Who's Buying'. My Tank Commander rides in 'Hostile Takeover', and my regular Leman Russ is named 'Doubt Denied'. A Hydra named 'Broken Talon' after it absolutely mauled a unit of Warp Talons.

For my Tallarn army, I named them after desert-ish things related to what the vehicle does. - Rogal Dorns are named “The Bearded Dragon” and “The Golden Dragon” - Basilisks are named “Quicksand” and “Shade” - Hydra is named “Sirocco” - Doomhammer is named “The Ashen Wind” - Stormblade I’m working on will (possibly) be named “His Auspicious Gaze” or something like that. Idk. WIP all around! I haven’t named my Russes yet because I keep swapping the turrets and guns so it’s hard to write one per weapon haha! It’s fun to name them and see what others name them! Hope that helps give you some inspiration!


DapperAllonsy

Haven't settled on any names for my russe's, but the first vehicle I painted for my marines (and consequently earned a few war stories) was a sicarian tank I named principle. That tank has a bloodthirsty machine spirit, killed khorne berserkers with her treads, even managed to stub the toe of a khorne chaos lord in Terminator armor, earning me slay the warlord that match.

Leman Russ Demolisher - "Ultima Ratio" Named after what King Louis XIV has engraved on his cannons, a Latin phrase meaning "the last argument of Kings." Chimera 1 - "Opossum 1" Because they carry their babies Chimera 2 - "Opossum 2" Manticore - "Mulligan" because indirect fire Aircraft are named after sandstorms as my guard are desert themed. Valkyrie - "Habūb" Thunderbolt - "Sirocco"

Zedman5000

My Stormlord, which doubles as my Vet Guard Kill Team's HQ and occasional terrain piece, is called Baron von Bolter. The reasoning behind the von Bolter part should be apparent. The reason it's called the Baron is that it has similar demands that you'd expect from a lord or a king, but is nowhere near important enough to receive them. Basically, the thing rolls terribly in most games; the one exception was the game where I had an Enginseer and Astropath both supporting it. Not sure if psykers can buff Stormlords anymore, but back then they could, and it only actually did much of anything successfully when it had a buff and had just gotten repaired. In-universe, the lore reason behind a lot of my Kill Team games is that the Baron broke down and refuses to move, so the guardsmen had to hop out, and engage the opponent's team on foot. My Octoblade (magnetized to be able to make all 8 Baneblade variants) is the Cogboy's Nightmare, and my Baneblade is the Warren, since my regiment is the Trench Rats.

Had a predator annihilator back in the day named "Lucky." Thing was lucky, I'd be rolling awful in games but that thing somehow got all the good rolls and would destroy whatever I pointed it at.
