Honestly if someone wanted to run this thing I’d let them. It’s 1000 points by itself, bare bones no options. Add some turrets to it and a few missiles, you’re up to 1100 lets say. Then, if you put anything into it you’re just taking more and more points off the table. Toss a 10 man bike unit in there and a pair of contemptors to fill the thing and you’ve suddenly got 1700+ points (approximately) tied up in one unit that has to start off the board.
Even if you can’t remove the 300 ish points worth of models in that first turn before it arrives, you’ll have an entire turn to spread out so much it won’t have anywhere to drop units or get close enough to anywhere useful. Play the area denial game and deny your opponent the open board space to place anything.

Yeah it seem that it would limit what you can accomplish on the board and if your opponent had a few skyfire with interceptor you may have the fastest most points expensive crash and burn of all time, bar a tau manta.

Well the Tau Manta has that covered with its 30 HP and 4+ invul on a super heavy that can't exploded. Its a tough costumer on its own but also 2000 pts AND dollars to set that thing on the table...

....well maybe if someone wins the thunderhawk a manta will be next year I'm hoping to win the thunder hawk. I don't know how I'd use it or even get it home. But I wants it. (This is just wishful thinking I probably won't win it) Sent from my SGH-I337M using proboards

you'll either have a 0% chance (if we don't hit 30) or a 1/30 chance at it (and yes, everyone will have an EQUAL chance at the Thunderhawk)

Well I know we are at 29 since Jake wants in to clubs but isn't back in Canada until the 16th.
