Scout Sargeant Cyrus is a veteran of the Kaurava campaigns. He served under Brother Captain Indrick Boreale during that most terrible of conflict. It was during that campaign that he lost his right eye when he was captured by Warboss Gorgutz's orks. Fortunately Boreale's Space Marines were able to save him during their attack on the Ork stronghold on Kaurava II. Since then he has served under the Force Commander during the first and second Aurilian Crusades. He is a cold and calculating warrior, and he should be rightly feared.

P.S: Cyrus is a Scout Squad upgrade similar to Smurf Sargeant Tellion.

I don't dislike him, but I think he'd do better simplified. W1 for starters, WS4 as well. Then you could drop him down quite a bit points-wise, and he'd be more in line with upgrade characters in other codexes (the guard one and codex space marines at least). Also, I assume he is only available to codex: Space Marines?

I agree with motyak, he needs to be simplified:
- 1W
- No Invuln save
- BS6 is irrelevant if his weapon is Master Crafted
- Don't know why he's Fearless
- 135 Points for that??? No thanks

Cut the invul, make him BS5, NO Fearless, 1w, and drop him to like 75 points, maybe less.

Is that better? Thanks for the feedback!

Better, but still not worth it for 135pts.

75pts! Much better!
