So, I was just thinking of some minor changes that would really help Lictors in their role (Character killers). What if they came stock with Toxin Sacs and had an ability that granted a MW on a wound roll of 6+ in the Fight phase against Characters. They could call it 'Assassins of the Swarm'. In addition the Deathleaper's 'It's After Me' ability should be changed to reflect it's old school iteration and maybe turn off the aura abilities of the designated Character if they fail a leadership test which they would take at the beginning of each of their turns. Thoughts?

What they really need is the INFANTRY keyword so they can DS out of LOS, charge without getting overwatched, let them go through ruins on the charge, if they fail they'll still be safe.
