History
The tank was named after the inventor of the horse-drawn War Wagon which the engineer later adapted to be mounted upon this Steam Tank. [1]
It become renowned as the personal mount of the late sharpshooter general Helmut the Black. [1] A respected Attendant of the Elector Count of Nuln, he used his longrifle to snipe enemy commanders from the front of the fighting platform. He was undefeated for many years commanding the forces of Nuln, but after a great victory against an Undead horde he disappeared. [2]
In the early 2500s Reiksmarshal Kurt Helborg commanded that all Steam Tanks adopt the same weapons as the Conqueror within five years. [1]
