The front ramp is very thick and can withstand direct hits from heavy weapons and also can be used as a dozer blade. The Gorgon's slow speed and weak armament make it a poor choice for anything other than short trips or amphibious assaults, Gorgons rely heavily on their thick armour and firing support from other units, usually Basilisks, or Medusa artillery, to make it safely to the enemy lines where it can unload its cargo of soldiers. The Gorgon saw heavy use during the opening stages of the Siege of Vraks by the 88th Siege Army of the Death Korps of Krieg. The Gorgon is used by the Astra Militarum primarily during trench warfare or sieges against enemy fortifications, to get troops across the killing field of "no-man's land" and close to the enemy, where the Astra Militarum can overwhelm the foe with their sheer numbers. While the exact date when the first Gorgon was constructed has been lost to the Adeptus Mechanicus, it is known that it originated on the Forge World of Vanaheim. 3 Adeptus Mechanicus Technical Specifications.
