Not to be confused with the Goliath Mega-Cannon, an equally hilarious super-heavy ordnance vehicle created by the Squats
The Goliath Truck also known as the Lulz Mobile or the Hive Mind's Pimpin Ride is a new vehicle made for the new Codex: Genestealer Cult released in 2016. While the Genestealer Cult members themselves aren't known for being the most handsome of individuals, they are however, known for their pimpin vehicles, which are themselves mining vehicles that have been re-purposed into crude transports. The Goliath Truck seems to be the new 'Limo' created by the Cult to out-Ork the Orks in terms of looks, out-Guard the Guard in terms of guns placed everywhere, and comes with a wall grinder of a dozer blade to turn anything in front of it into roadkill.
Overview
For a kit-bashed truck, Goliath Trucks seem to be packed with the punch. For what counts as a civilian vehicle, the Goliath sports a twin-linked side-mounted heavy stubber, a pintle-mounted heavy stubber which can be replaced with a missile launcher, twin-linked mining lasers (Which are essentially lascannons), spotlights and a giant snow shovel/wall grinder that can rip apart armoured vehicles and enemy infantry like half-melted butter. Additionally, Goliath Trucks can tag along several Genestealer Cult members so they can pimp out with bitches and hoes as well as tearing off a limb or two.
Essentially speaking, a Goliath Truck is like a beefed up Ork Trukk for just less than double the points, but with more armour and bigger guns. Unfortunately you can't take Purestrain Genestealers or the Patriarch for some reason (Maybe they're too fat or big to fit in?).
There is also the Goliath Rockgrinder which is the Goliath Truck with the (in)famous Drilldozer Blade shoved up front (It is the giant snow shovel with the spinning metal of death in front). Slightly tougher than the Goliath Truck with 12/10/10 HP3. Can transport 6 dudes, but isn't open topped so they can't assault. Ignores crew stunned/shaken and immobilized results on a 4+ thanks to being built so sturdily for mining operations. Comes stock with a heavy mining laser (36" range lascannon) that can be replaced with a clearance incinerator or a heavy seismic cannon and a beefed up dozer blade in the Drilldozer Blade. As you can already tell, they're designed to ram other vehicles into oblivion and tank shock and hopefully turn enemy units into meaty chunks.
Goliath Trucks seem to be a intermediate vehicle between the stolen but heavily armoured and armed Leman Russ Tanks to the more troop carrying but lightly armed Chimeras.
