Actually, it worse than that - 27.

This uses AT=2FP, which seems to be how Games Workshop figured it, but I'd
much rather have an AT shot than 2FP, since 2FP means approx. 1 die vs.
armor against a vehicle or infantry in the open. If AT=3FP, a Land Raider
would be worth 48 points. I still think Land Raiders are a heck of a deal
for Space Marine players.

Thanks for the formula, Alan. Seems very close to correct for most units.
