Crimson Fists had Captain Cortez, the most badass Space Marine in history.

Found him last week at a LGS and I was on it like white on rice.

Would anyone who remembers/ haa the 3rd edition SM Dex be so kind as to post or share a link to his rules and statline? I'd be very much obliged.

Mid-level captain statline (there were three at the time) powerfist/bolt pistol, purity seals. He let the first unit in your army that failed a fall back check to ignore it. And he was so tough and stubborn he always got to make his armor save, basically getting a 3++. Plus the normall IC command squad stuff. He cost 15 more points the a similarly equiped captain with an iron halo, which is not unreasonable for upgradeing the invuln and the stubbern rule.

So...ummm when are the Crimson Fists going to go rescue this guy so I can field him? I am going to kitbash one together. His character is so cool.

Please don't ask for rules, even if they are old. The dakka member who answered managed to do so within the rules of the forum though, so good on him, but it's usually best to avoid flat out 'what are the rules' questions. Thanks

Wazdakka Gutsmek had a souped up bike (back in 2nd ed. it was armed with a battlecannon!) that could fire while turbo-boosting. He also made ork warbikers troops, making him a must for Speed Freak armies.

Old Zogwort was a psyker that could turn enemy ICs into squigs.

Makari the Grot: Ghazghkull's standard bearer, had a 2+ invulnerable save.

Zodgrod Worstnagga: Could turn a single unit of Gretchin into super-grots.

Nazdreg: I don't remember much about him, other than being a cheaper, mega-armored alternative to Ghazghkull.

I'm weeping about our loss

Damn, this thread is depressing the gak outta me.

What, not going to list all the other models that will be missing (like the Baron)? At least Vect could be reasonably modeled using an Archon (and still has a chance of seeing a real model), the others not so much.

Vect even had his Jabba's Palace desert skiff too! It's a bummer he's out, or at least seeming that way. GW could make a Ravager his flying pimp palace with an upgrade sprue and that'd be all it took.
