I added your ideas and Got rid of the smoke and added extra wording to clear stuff up.
Final Update, I needed to add the mutant gunners:

| Works for me, though I might take "Primary weapon" off the earth shaker cannon, since it is a standard weapon. I'm on the fence about it.

I like the picture. It's totally retro.

I noticed a few things.
1.) I can barely read this as it appears on the forum here.
2.) At what initiative do the small demons attack?
3.) Smoke? Is it possible to have smoke launchers on a super-heavy vehicle? I'm not sure, but I can't ever remember a Super Heavy vehicle having smoke launchers.

I agree with the initiative of the demons, it is cool but needs an initiative, probably pretty low like 3 or 2. I imagine a hundred little dudes scampering around the whole hull and popping off to attack like popcorn.
The transport deck could be simplified to "may carry x number of models. These models may shoot and assault from the vehicle as if it were open-topped, however the vehicle will always count as closed topped in all other instances." Or something like that.
What would the disadvantage of having the cannon a primary weapon be? I guess that it could repair itself... that's it right?
I could go either way on that one. I don't think it will change it much in either direction, however it seems like it shouldn't be a primary weapon unless it is using the Apoc template or something like that!
Maybe instead of smoke, the vehicle has a "demonic steam" that may be released once per game. This demonic steam is jetted from its overheating engines, and shroud the vehicle in smoke. The downside is that the vehicle may not move on the turn that it does this.
That's kinda cool. Allows it to shoot but not move. just brainstorming here

What, are you channeling Yoda when you write your questions now?   Or should I say... channeling Yoda when you write your questions now, are you? haha.

The downside is that the vehicle may not move on the turn that it does this.
Doesn't smoke usually take the place of shooting though? And how could the vehicle shoot if it is enshrouding itself in it's own thick smoke? I'd just drop the smoke altogether unless there is a precedent set with some other Super Heavy vehicle. The thing is as big as a house. How do you conceal that with smoke launchers or engine steam? And even if you think it's plausible to do so, how could you let it shoot out from its own blanketing smoke?

Super heavy vehicle you have.

And even if you think it's plausible to do so, how could you let it shoot out from its own blanketing smoke?
Smoke does take the place of shooting. If superheavies can't have normal smoke, maybe we could modify the smoke and say that it is something different. I guess something better than smoke isn't a good idea. Maybe it shouldn't be able to move or shoot...
Nah... too restrictive.

For the initiative on attacking the vehicle I would look at the nurgle infestation it has an initiative I would use it.
I can't read it so I have not other comments.
Like everyone else I like the drawing it's a nice boat

Maybe you should have named them Donnie and Marie!

Mutant Osmands.
WS3 BS3 S2 T2 W1 A1 I6 Sv6+
Special Rules:
Fleet of Teeth: Donnie and Marie have huge, gaping, ridiculously white teeth that, when bared, warp space and time causing all to flee and make them appear much much closer the Osmands actually appear. The Osmands may use the Fleet special rules found in the 40K rulebook.

Or this.....
THE HORROR- this power is unleashed during the shooting phase,once per game the Osmonds may start singing(Marie country,Donnie rock and roll at the same time).The effect of this horrible noise will make any enemy unit within 12" take a morale check at a -5.If said test is failed the models are removed from play because they melted off the board from the shear agony of the two's fucking noise!

A Little Bit Country... The owning player of Donnie and Marie have the ability to go "a little bit country..." in an assault phase. At the beginning of an assault phase where they are already in assault (not charging to assault), or are assaulted, the owning player may declare that Donnie and Marie go "Country." Country adds the following stats to their base profile.
+2 WS, +2 S, +2T, +2A, +1I
A Little Bit Rock and Roll... During any shooting phase where the Osmonds remained stationary in the movement phase, the owning player may declare that the Osmonds are going "a little bit rock and roll." This grants the Osmonds +2 to cover saves, and +3 to armor saves, and re-rolls of all failed armor saves. All Enemy units within 12 inches must roll a leadership check, subject to any applicable modifiers. If they pass, they may continue to operate as normal. If they fail, the unit must forgo it's subsequent assault and movement phase as they are forced to dance, despite the kitsch...
Only units with a Book of St. Lucius may ignore the Rock and Roll effect. These units are busy chanting the Empreror's litany of exorcism to banish the Osmond presence.
