Speaking of Rhinos, I recently noticed that they do not infact have spikes,
but it was the whirlwind I was looking at. Seeing as their the same chassis,
I guess I can be forgiven. But still, Whirlwinds have spikes but no assault.
Oh well, I'll wait until I find that the rule doesn't work before I change
it (Many a times rules were changed in Necromunda because the original
looked stupid, but was found to be the best way to accomplish its purpose)
