Well, just wondering what Warjack or Beast would you guys like a Character Heavy/Light/Lesser based on?

My personal preference for Khador would be a character Spriggan.

Maybe something along the lines of:

Svyatogor Character Iron Fang Heavy Warjack

SPD STR MAT RAT DEF ARM CMD
4. 12. 7. 4. 10. 19. -

Abilities:
-Bulldoze
-Martial Inspiration:
Friendly faction Iron Fang Models within 10" of this model gain +1 to Charge Attack rolls.
-Affinity (Iron Fang Warcaster):
When in (Iron Fang Warcaster's) battle group, this model gains Relentless Charge

Weapons:
-Heavy Blasting Lance: Same stats as normal War Lance, losing Powerful Charge, but with the same effect as Kovnik Markov's Lance.
-Assault Shield: Same stats as normal Spriggan.
Grenade Launcher x2: Same base stats as normal Spriggan Grenade Launcher, losing the Targeting Flare and gaining;
Command Flare: Instead of making an attack with this weapon, target a friendly faction unit within 10" to gain Ranked Attacks.

Cost-12 FA-C

If you can't tell I planned on something like this being paired with an Iron Fang Warcaster that doesn't exist haha.

So, basically my friends' Stormwall called 'Lucky'

In all seriousness, I would really want a character Freebooter. I love that Jack, that might just be me. But a character Driller would be the coolest thing.

Shadowrun is the best game ever. It's the only thing I have ever played in which I have jumped out of a shot out van with a chainsaw to cut a flying drone in half before leveling a building with ANFO assisted by a troll, a dwarf, an elf, and a wizard.

I want a character crab jack. Either a Leviathan or Harrower to have affinity with Skarre.

A character Griffon that has better MAT and charges for free. It would be great to get the synergy chain going.

Or just a heavy version of a Griffon. I'd like to see a Ret heavy with a shield. I thought Imperatus may have it. What a disappointment he was...

I'd like to see some more character lights personally, and a character Dervish for Amon Ad Raza.

I'm thinking:

Chains of Absolution

Stats: as Dervish.

Weapons:

2x Chain Blades (P+S 12, 4" reach during activation, ignores shields/bucklers)

Abilities:


Bullet Dodger - +2 Def against ranged attacks, and whenever an attack misses this model, it can advance 2".

Affinity [Amon] - Perfect Balance (as per Amon), can't be targeted by CMAs, CRAs, free strikes, and doesn't suffer back-strike bonuses.

Ace - Caine personal jack from the book and Headhunter a character jack for a stormblade jack marshal.

Would be nice if they came out with a character stomrblade unit too.

I'm not prejudiced, I hate everyone equally

I seriously like all of those ideas,

A character Freebooter would be incredible. Would it be worth giving it an affinity? Or would it just being a unique character be enough I wonder.

Skarre does need a character crab jack, she is just begging for one to take in her theme lists. I wonder what kind of abilities it would have though.

I like the idea for Amon's character light, would fit him quite nicely.

Ace... It needs to happen.

It would be interesting to see a character Lesser for legion (not that they really need it haha), maybe one that has an affinity to the Beast Mistress. That would be pretty wild to see a beast with an affinity to a non-character. Maybe something along the lines of being some sort of lesser hive mind that supports lessers.

Ace would be very easy. Just give him an imprint for stealth that extends to B2B for small bases, and hike the points appropriately. Or something similar

I'd actually like a character light jack for Terminus. Maybe a character stalker.

The Skarre crabjack has been neccessary for a very long time.

Character Angelious +2 Def -1ARM and the armor piercing attack is on his tail and isn't a Star Attack. Make him Special Issue Kallus so when it's a part of his Battle Group he gets the Afflictors rule where when it boxes a warrior model place an Incubus into play.

I've wanted to see a character upgrade kit for Cryx Bone Chickens myself. The models come two to a box so I'd like to see them use that to make a character pair. Give them wolf skulls for heads and a bit to go over the arc node to fancy that up, then rules to make them work together. Some ganger fighter or flanking rules for melee, and then a special dual arc node rule that either gives you bonuses to the spell if they're both in range to arc to the same target or something where if one is in Control and the other is within X distance of the first you can still arc thru it even if it's outside of control.

Yup. He is a Toro warjack. The only modern heavy warjack design from Ord.

It only has rules in the IKRPG.

Ahhh, I see. That makes sense, I haven't been able to get a group together for Iron Kingdoms, so I haven't been able to justify picking up the books.

For the character crabjack, I'm thinking the Leviathan chassis.

+1 RAT and ARM. Imprint: submerge. Losses amphibious (to not make it crazy expensive). Affinity Skarre: Arcane Precision.

I really want a proper shooty jack, can ya tell?

Also, those three (Shaw and Co.) need to be a character unit.

So, you want it to be unusable in pSkarre's theme force?
