Description
Stormguard Senior Officer
The Stormguard Senior Officer provides a backbone to the unit, co-ordinating their efforts with other Storm units and using his Voltaic Halberd to attack from a safe distance. Capable of marshalling warjacks, he provides a vital additional punch to a Stormguard team.
Special Rules
Unit Attachment
- 'Jack Marshal
- Immunity to Electricity - As unit.
- Combined Melee Attack - As unit.
- Officer
- Ranked Attack - As unit.
- Granted - Flank (Storm Knight) - While this model is in play, models in this unit gain: When this model makes a melee attack against an enemy target within melee range of a different friendly unit of the listed type, this model gains +2 to attack and damage rolls.
- Drive - Jolt - This model can attempt to Drive each warjack under its control in its command range. To Drive a warjack this model must make a Command check at any time during its activation. If the check succeeds, the warjack gains Electro Leap on all its melee and ranged attacks, and Immunity (Electricity) until the end of its activation. If the check fails, the warjack does not benefit from Jack Marshal this turn.
Weapon
- Electric Discharge - As unit.
- Electro-Leap - As unit.
Concept Notes
The way I see it, you could run this guy with a Marshalled Thunderhead and have some fun with a pike hedge type affair keeping it safe while the warjack pulses things. Alternatively, field him with full Stormguard, and when he's engaged countercharge with Storm Lances or something for the flank bonus.
Playtesting Notes
This needs testing - and a possible Mk1 points cost.
