As Zyntax says though I want him to have a unique set of rules to reflect his fluff on the table. Much like forgeworld add unique rules to all there named characters. This will make him more fun to play and give any army he joins a different feel! Plus we Bunnies love the to represent the fluff on the tabletop! You are right Zyntax that it needs to be done in agreement with the group you play with and I don't want him to be overpowered but have a nice balance that reflects the fluff above and isn't a rule that every character could have!

When playing a campaign with friends just for the fun of it, I think that getting a bit out of hand can sometimes make for a great moments (as long as there is a homemade-rules-consensus). This of course has its limits. We don't want str D hits from all models in the army, but going out of the norm to add more flavor to a friendly game is very much permitted in my book ("Zyntax Heresy Book One: Happy Fun Times")! ;)Zyntaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09601601890331082092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171473526147600929.post-91268417674824703022016-02-16T10:52:59.828+00:002016-02-16T10:52:59.828+00:00I'd go with the rules in book four Conquest pa...I'd go with the rules in book four Conquest page 218.

But, however, this can encourage you to use him in a different way. That's always cool! Btw, what about something like this:<br />"'Leader of raids': Isaac Cordactus and his unit can shoot and run or run and shoot the same turn he enters the battlefield." It's not superpowered but still fluffy and goes well outflanking or droppoding.<br />Cheers!Sr. Dieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08790003584178628296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171473526147600929.post-67417616177676111642016-02-15T22:16:11.349+00:002016-02-15T22:16:11.349+00:00Beautiful!

Though it might some times be hard to balance, as the unit he can join is a pretty free choice. This can of course be made easier by limiting his choices of squads. He does have Zealot, but still! I think that the following rule could be cool:<br />Gang Tactics: Cordactus can only ever join Reaver Attack Squads. Him and the squad he is in gains the Furious Charge (or maybe Rage, or whatever you feel fits the best).Zyntaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09601601890331082092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171473526147600929.post-19113836325386766392016-02-15T21:39:03.965+00:002016-02-15T21:39:03.965+00:00He looks brilliant mate.
