Almost done, but with the lack of sun here in Denmark at this hour, better pictures will have to wait...Two Man Crew, Bounty HunterYautja Alpha Hunter (Elite Head Taker, Hero: Unkillable)M: 3 | RC: 4+ | CC: 4 | A: 3 | S: 3 | DR: 6 | W: 4 Type: Individual Abilities: Melee Master, Solo, Impervious (5+), Unstoppable Race: Edasii (+1 Gear) Melee Choice: Sword Gear Choice: Cloaking Field Gear Choice: Automated Tracking Weapon (Beam Rifle) Gear Choice (Race): Self Destruct Mechanism Gear Choice (Loot): Mono-Wire Weapon Dirty Tricks: Loot, Scout, Stand Your Ground, Keep Moving Well, here he is then. The Predator, for all intents and purposes. I have no idea how he'll fare on the field of battle; but I tried to model the unit entry as close to that of a Predator, as we know and love them from the various movies. My main concern is that he's only one man! I'm hoping that the cloaking field will keep him protected long enough for him to get into hand-to-hand combat (where he, most likely, will slice and dice his way through the opponents). I chose the 'Stand Your Ground' Dirty Trick because I'm quite concerned that, seeing as the opponent only has one target, they'll be prone to blast away with Suppressive fire... but, thinking about it, he might be better off with another "Keep Moving" dirty trick instead. Anyway, here's to trying to remake a classic for AE Bounty

oh, nice. Though I think i would've taken Arges instead of Edasil and dropped the self destruct mechanism (it's too late anyway when he dies, plus you can always claim you won anyway as your thermo-nuclear device wasted not only within a few inches of him, but everyone on the adjacent tables too!), making him Brute or bloodied warrior could also be pretty nice.
We'll have to see about getting a game in!

Personally I went Nikkar with mine. +2 Str and the Sure Footed means he can rush into combat with greater ease and really smack some folks around.

Love the fig. Where is it from?
Please keep us posted on how he does in battle.

That's a cool fig and a great paint job.
What are you going to do for the base?

If it is the Heresy one (I can't tell from that angle as I haven't assembled mine), be aware they are available in limited numbers only and when they are gone, Andy says they will stay gone. |

My main concern is that he's only one man! I'm hoping that the cloaking field will keep him protected long enough for him to get into hand-to-hand combat (where he, most likely, will slice and dice his way through the opponents). Based on this post, I decided I would solve the problem of him being only one man, by ordering two of them! You just lose too much by dropping an Elite selection to get one additional Dirty Trick. They, along with my rulebook, and some miniatures to make a second crew, arrived yesterday. I'm going to try similar to what you've done, but as others have suggested use them as "counts-as" Nikkar, with both taking the Brute hero type, and giving one a "sword" (the claws) and the other a pike. |
