It’s not the most efficient use of points, models or wargear, but I like the idea of a jacked up MoTF. Browse at your leisure:

Master of the Forge

Servo-harness
Bike
The Gorgon’s Chain
The Ironstone
Servitor with servo-arm
2 servitors with plasma cannon

255 points

Pros: repairs vehicles on 2+ with servitors, has shooting capability, T5, high mobility, all the benefits from Gorgon’s Chain including +1 FNP, 3++ with no wounds lost (doesn’t have to be used by Chapter Master), vehicles IWND on 4+ within 6 inches, especially good if castled up with tanks or dreads

Cons

Only 2 wounds, I4 and WS4. Will attract a lot of enemy fire, but surrounded by vehicles will not be helpless. High points cost for low model count. Mindlock when out of range with the servitors

Any thoughts? Also, what about a cheaper version with no servitors?

Definitely no Servitors. The majority T of the group would be 3, making it far easier to drown you in small arms fire.

OK then, the viability of said MOTF with no servitors?
