Tiren was a planet lost to the imprium for over 10,000 years. When the imprium rediscovered the planet they were taken by shock as they discovered that the entire population of the lost planet had gone through an unexpected mutation, even more startling was that the population still worshiped the emperor. These mutations all seemed to consist of the same thing, extreme body growth. Because of their belief in the emperor, they happily agreed to go to war in his name.Battle giants are a heavy support choice

I'm all for new units and stuff, but this seem a tad-bit over the edge. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2504818.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2504818.page GMT Re:IG giants
TNM wrot:I'd allow it. I seems similar to the WHFB orc giant.

My idea was based around a 40k version of the WHFB orc giant.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2506212.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2506212.page GMT IG giants IT.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2508698.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2508698.page GMT Re:IG giants

Imagine the look on the oponents face when he/she see's there best units get half wiped out in shooting, and the other half annihilated in assault. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2509695.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2509695.page GMT IG giants http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2509830.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2509830.page GMT IG giants
And maybe just a battle cannon,or better some kind of gaint ripper gun.
Maybe
S7 AP3 Assault 5

And make the gaint dumb.
Like the fantasy gaints.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2510813.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2510813.page GMT IG giants

Also, S9 with furious charge? If it's a MC it's going to get 2D6 vs armour anyway, why have the strength so high? Lower the strength or lose FC IMHO.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2511169.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2511169.page GMT IG giants IG should not get monstrous creatures, especially not one that's just an exceptionally large human.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2511257.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2511257.page GMT IG giants http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2511269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2511269.page GMT Re:IG giants .

I Like your chart but maybe more chance of slow and purposeful?

A creature like this should not have anti tank weaponry, it should rely on tank-popping in assault.

+Fallen giant template is kindof a must.....

EDIT: Actually i like the drum grenades...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2524474.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/349990/2524474.page GMT
