Hi!

I think we should let ANY APC type vehicle tow:

Rhinos
Chimeras
Battle wagons
Ironhammer
Cubekeeper

Because Chimera is the IG workhorse. It is heavier than rhino and so

Not necessarily; see above. The shootiest things don't always go to the
special forces. Think about superheavies, for example.
