Suggestions on how to fix? I'm planning on reposing his club arm so that the club is resting on the ground. This immediately makes him look less ridiculous, but the hat and beard make Captain Harkevitch look more like Captain Highliner than some bad ass nicknamed the Iron Wolf...

**ShatteredBlade**

I think he looks awesome personally. Though with that club as so..you'll have an issue. Any good with green stuff?

**infinite_array**

I don't think people will mind how the model looks when he's casting Broadside with Black Ivan, a Destroyer and 2 Demolishers. And then feats for the win.

My issue with Broadside with the Demolisher is its range and low ARM thereafter.

I am tempted to play him with Black Ivan, Destroyer, Behemoth maybe...

**Casper**

I'm leaning toward Black Ivan and 2 Decimators.

Armored Shell states that after making attack the model becomes ARM17 until its next activation. The trick is to activate Harkevich before activating Demolisher and cast Broadsides, then Demolisher activates and becomes ARM25 again. Of course with range of 8" it won't always work but it's still great even as scare tactic.

**Laughing Man**

That, and due to the latest Infernal ruling, making free strikes with its guns is HILARIOUS.

**Soladrin**

I'm glad I play Legion and the thing never actually really bothers me because it's to slow

God I love eLylyth.

**Wehrkind**

Ugh, ARM 25? I didn't even realize it went that high!

My poor impotent Warpwolves...

Feh..we can still handle it..I hope D:

**Brotherjanus**

Is that an armor bonus or it's base armor? I want to know what my hunters need to kill it

Base armor. Nasty, isn't it?

**Brotherjanus**

So the armor piercing rule makes that a 13? Good thing those things are slow enough for multiple shots.

**Laughing Man**

Under Harkevich, it'll probably be running 10" every turn. Since all its attacks will be made with Broadside until it's close enough to do some serious damage, it'll keep the stupidly high armor, too.

Actually bonus armor would be better, since it's base armor that is divided and bonus armor stays full. If he was ARM17 with arms giving +4ARM each it would be ARM18 against armor piercing attacks (or Siege feat). It's still great anyway. And Khador had ARM25 jack (Devastator) since 2004.

if you check the Wrath book, the Demolisher is just a Devestater chasis with large rifles over the Rain of Death nades it had. it's nice they have this gyuy clarified, Devy is broken from what i read. i am going to search the rules forum for my answer.

i love Behemoth with Harky but i am thinking of trying his Tier list. it will be my first attempt at tier but it excites me. Harky in 15 or 25 is cake, just run jacks lol. my 35pt Harky tier is gonna be rough. thinking heavy on Widowmakers and the Marksmen solo, although i want the new Merc Elf solo that helps with focus but i don't think Tier can have mercs? anyways ill have more to come when i post my Harky list later.

**Laughing Man**

Widowmakers are disallowed barring the Marksman. It's not a horrible list, but suffers from a distinct lack of magic weapons. Not a huge problem a lot of the times, but Cryx lists tend to take machine wraiths for filler in my experience, and at the very least my local meta is fairly heavy on the Cryx...

I'd personally avoid the tier, if only for Wishnailer. Harkevich is pretty focus hungry, so pumping him up to an effective 7 is rather handy.
