A Rhino is a cheap way to get your possessed/berserkers across the table quickly. However, having a rhino or two as your only vehicles tends to get them shot up pretty quickly. I'd suggest a predator, vindicator or defiler for some fire support.

The Land Raider is quite good with AV14 all around, AT weapontry, transport capacity and is classed as an Assault Vehicle.

Depending on what you roll for the Possessed you may end up with the Khorne boyz inside. Terms can Deep Strike.

Not a fan of the Defiler as its such a huge footprint though a battle cannon shell covers more nowadays. Still, LR a better choice as your sole vehicle.

Yeah if you are just planning one vehicle, make it a LR imo.

your best bet, as always, is to play as many games as possible.

Advice from us can only go so far, as you will have your own play style that none of us are qualified to talk to.
