Warp Prowlers are fallen Space Marines who become addicting to stalking and killing the best an enemy army has to offer. Their dedication is so great they will often ignore weaker foes instead opting to attack the strongest enemy they can find. These shadowy beasts are more warp creature than astartes and appear as a ghostly combination of power armor and blackened skin. Able to glide on the warp to reach their foe they appear at will either using their corrupted Warp Rifle to kill an enemy from afar or if necessary resorting to their deadly wrist blades.
Elite
Unit Composition-1
Pts-100(150 maybe?)
WS- 5
BS- 5

Equipment-Warp Rifle, Wrist Talons,
Special Rules- Fearless, Warp Gliding, That one was mine

Warp Gliding- Warp Prowlers rely on their innate ability to use the warp as a means of travel, as such Prowlers may opt to forgo all other phases and instead glide into the warp, roll a d6 on a 1 the Prowler is killed or otherwise made indisposed by the warp and is removed from play any other value is added to ten and the Prowler may move in any direction that many inches bypassing all terrain or obstacles. In addition if his movement takes him within 2" of a model (friend or enemy) that model must pass an initiative test if they fail the model is stunned by the chaotic disruption that comes with the warp and suffers a -1 penalty to Ws and Bs for the next turn.

That one was mine- Prowlers are incredibly passionate about their targets, before the game you must select one enemy Elite or HQ as the Prowlers target, if any other model kills the target the Prowler turns on his own side and must attack the unit who slew his target, if he is not in range he must immediately attempt to Warp Glide to his target. Once this unit has been killed the Prowler is removed from play but dies not count as a casualty.

Wrist Blades- Melee, AP3, Rending, Poison

Warp Rifle-Range-48", AP-1, Pinning, Sniper
(The Warp Rifle is powerful but very dangerous and unstable, any missed shots must be accompanied by a D6 on a 1 the Rifle explodes and can no longer be used in addition the Prowler takes an immediate wound)

Edit- Reduced the range on the rifle and added a little more flavor to the gliding.
The gun prolly needs work, CnC welcome]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728201.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728201.page GMT
I would possibly allow for a 'disruption' weapon, causing some form of disturbance in the warp that affects enemies nearby. Perhaps you could make him a level 1 psyker with a Nova power built in and no option to take other?

Or consider other types of weapon stats that may work. A template? As a Chaos Marine, he would generally be considered to have frag grenades, but I'd give him a warp disruption that works the same but is based on reality bending and lurching as he passes nearby.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728281.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728281.page GMT
With literally a 1/36 chance of exploding, across the board range coupled with across the board movement, and AP1 I'm really not impressed by it, and given how much better it is than his melee I doubt he'd ever have reason not to use it.

I personally would refluff it as a daemon or a more daemonic space marine. Maybe even just a character to lead a Warp Talons squad since thats essentially what he is. The idea of a daemon hunting someone across the warp, emerging from nothing to rend and tear, is pretty cool IMO. A teleporting sniper is not cool, not in terms of fluff and not in gameplay.

Kudos for recognising that the rifle would be a problem though. If you want to keep a sniper weapon, I suggest taking the Vindicators rifle and then nerfing it to make up for all the other stuff this guy has going for him (ie, that movement and his... reasonable close combat). ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728406.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728406.page GMT IMO. Only change I would make is to lower the Warp Glide to 6" then D6. Makes it closer to move then run plus a possible 16" is a bit ridiculous.
Great idea though! Might make one myself ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728442.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728442.page GMT d6 and multiply that by ten for movement"

He's much less OTT now. Still reckon that Sniper Rifle needs work but not so bad if he isn't teleporting across the board. TBH I'd probably make the teleport better since 1/6 chance that he dies when he uses it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728448.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/533085/5728448.page GMT
