Berserkers on Juggernauts in Fast Attack?

What sort of terrain piece would people think for WE? Hopefully not just a giant pile of skulls...

II think non-berzerker dudes who remember how to use a gun would be really good. Maybe they could have uncaged plasma guns or something like that (think: Reavers from Firefly/Serenity), something slightly more dangerous but even more in breach of health and safety legislation. After all Khorne cares not from where the blood flows...

The problem with plasma weaponry is that the blood doesn't tend to get to flow - it tends to evaporate, with the wound getting cauterised...

Plasma weapons help you open the tin cans of personal and vehicular armor so that you can then chop up the soft interiors and LET THE BLOOD FLOW!

So do krak missiles - which also have the benefit of allowing frag missiles for lots of cuts and flowing blood...

For some reason that image isn't loading for me, KidCthulhu, but loading that page on SoL, I see what you mean - I'm guessing you'd have Jump Pack Berserkers instead of Raptors/Warp Talons, in this scenario?

I'm confident that when the WE and EC books eventually appear - and I have no knowledge as to when that'll be - that a new Berserker kit and a new Noise Marine kit will accompany them, like new Plague Marines did with the DG (and Rubrics with 1k Sons?).

I'm sure they'll be nicely sculpted, and bigger than the current sculpts - but they'll also be very limited in pose, and will probably confuse us with the included options...
