Oof, what have I walked into here ... my dream thread lets get started ...with some feedback on existing ideas.
1.
When a model with the Bionics special rule suffers an unsaved Wound or Mortal Wound, roll a D6. On a 5+ that Wound is ignored.
At best this needs to be a 6+ but its basically just a better version of Graia's Feel no pain forge world trait on characters .... however i don't think we actually need our characters to be harder to kill...
My opponents have a hard enough time killing my TPD's as it is, I would rather our Advanced Refractor field's just gave a 6+ save against mortal wounds.
2.
Onagers in a squadron operating like Carnifex broods,
I'm onboard, but I would limit it slightly ... Either the Squadrons must share a weapon type ... Eg all Icarus, or all Neutron/ Eradication beamer
Or just give us different datasheets, ala lemon Russ but this is too much work.
3.
Revised Crawler
, I'm actually ok with our dune crawler mobility, Used correctly we can hide in
Los blocking terrain and make pop out attacks . While this rule fits flavor wise it's too abusable in game,
I'd be happier with, crawler just allowing you to fall back from combat at shoot at -1
4.
Revised Emmantis force field save
What Ad mech unit is this supposed to buff, even our rangers and Vanguard have a 6+
inv I would extend the re-roll ones for Invulnerable saves instead not too powerful but fun and fluffy.

Transuranic Arq changes
I like these but i'd actually be happy with just a 5 point cost drop on the Gun and its much more likely to happen, I'd actually also like to add the " Ignores Cover Phospher rule" ... that's what an Anti-material
rifle is designed for, after all, light armor and blasting at units in cover , Or taking out IED's from range
6.
Galvanic Rifle being able to target characters
I like this change, but I would make it some kind of Skitarii Equipment upgrade IE pay 10 points and have the ranger team be able to do this with galvanic rifles.
Lets call it " Arquebus augmentation " The unit is equipped with modified Arquebus rifle scopes which change the weapon type to heavy 1 Can target characters.
