I don't know what to do with this one. Love the model. Roughly dreadnoughts size. I'm thinking Shas'o with either +1 W or +1 T and Broadside leader equipment and options? The difference between a Crisis Suit and a Broadside is 35 points. So a Shas'o pays 35 for smart missiles, TL railgun, and 2+ armor... But loses mobility and some options.

What do you guys think? Or do I just try to run it as counts as Dread knight?

Its got the right weapons to count as a hammerhead with railgun and sms.

use it as whatever you like
You could use tin foil made infantry and tissue box rhinos as long as your opponent agrees to it

I'd say base its stats off the GK DreadKnight (except 4 WS and 5 BS) for 130, MC with a HammerHead Railgun, SMS, 50 pts for them total? means the guy would be at least 180 base, than another 20 for 2+ so 200 base? no weapon upgrades buy he should be able to take Shas'O crisis suit upgrades (Bonding knife, hard-wired drone controller ect.). just my 2 cents on the matter

Well thanks, but the point is I want an outside opinion. I can make a WS10 BS10 W10 for 10 points, but its not reasonable. I'm hoping to get a reasonable consensus and then field it as such.

@Thatguyhsagun. Thanks. Hopefully a few more people can get behind that or throw in their $.02 too.

Well, reasonable or not is up to your opponent not to us. It's essentially changing what you are allowed to field in the game.
Can't really do that normally.


But anyway, I would field it as a Heavy Slot with Dread Knight stats w/ Tau weapons, or just use the Uber Suit Stats that are posted in the news&discussion page.

What would you think would work for points? I'll check out the ubder suit stats, but I hadn't seen any costs for it (admittedly haven't look in the past few days). Could work

Same points for hammerhead + railgun and whatever else you put on him I guess...
Or dreadknight price + Railgun Price.
