[@Agent B52] We'll be part of a larger unit, but will each be playing a singular character or a squad of them at most AKA We'll have [b]plenty[/b] of NPC's to do the dying for us! That, and I'm looking at infantry because, well, a Leman Russ is not much use on a close-protection job...or an assassination...or a recon into hostile territory...or...well, you get the picture.

Nevertheless, if you wish to take a Leman Russ, I'll let you have it.

A Leman Russ is perfectly capable of assassination! It will just not be very subtle about it.

If we have a vehicle with a turret on it, I wanna be the gunner, otherwise, I want the plasma gun!

ANYWAY:

[hider=Sergeant Jacques 'Mad Jack' De Vries]
[b]HISTORY[/b]

As implied by his nickname, Jack is considered to be a bit messed up in the head due to always volunteering for scout duty. Cheerful and a great singer his tank is always in the front, leading the charge or reconnoitring the terrain ahead.

Initially recruited from the agriworld Nendardel, his experience with racing on tractors (based off the Leman Russ chassis) made him a great tank driver right off the bat. He truly rose to fame during a short but intense conflict with a group of Chaos raiders on the agriworld of Chion VII. During a battle for one of the provincial capitals his Russ had the turret blown off killing both the commander and the gunner and leaving Jack in charge of the tank. Rather than retreat from the unseen tank destroyer or panic he slammed down on the throttle forward and used a dip in the terrain to hide his now much smaller tank. From there, coordinating carefully with the remains of his unit, he managed to sneak into the enemy back lines where, armed solely with a hull mounted lascannon and sponsoon bolters he proceeded to sow utter chaos among the lines of the heretics. Either annoying targets enough so that they would expose vulnerable rear armour to other imperial tanks and blasting important looking objects with the hull mounted cannon. When asked to comment on his highly successful if reckless run, he reportedly shrugged and replied with 'it was great fun and I'd love to do it again?'.

Soon after, he was promoted to commander of the Leman Russ 'Cearbannog', the tank he has commanded ever since. He and his surviving comrades from Nendardel are best known for two things. The first is their relaxed easy going attitude off duty, being tolerant of quirks of people from other worlds rather than annoyed. Secondly the crew share a small portable garden of plants from their homeworld which can be smoked as a replacement for normal Lho sticks. For obvious reasons this makes them quite popular on extended campaigns.
