InfinityMax's Customs - Bloody X Thugs

AAAhhhh that is how I thought he was to be played IMax, I would make him so that if he is turn 1 he can move, hand off turn 1 and then the new guy starts over as if it was his fresh turn 1. Therefore you can activate range if needed, flying or whatever else you may need at the time. he would be great to load with round two and threes if he was with a large pack. That allows alot of flexibility if he does not get smoked, and if he does, well that is the fun of this character.

Thanks for that link, Geek. Now that I know what they're called, I was able to find the store where I ordered them. Tin Dictator has the Space Rangers for $4.50.

I may order another set to make into Parduz' additional Argonauts. They'll require a little modding, but I think they'll be awesome.

I've considered two other options:

1) Instead of attacking with Order Runner, you may attack with any friendly, adjacent figure.

2) Instead of attacking with Order Runner, you may take a turn with any friendly, adjacent figure.

I actually like #2 better - it lets you put all three markers on the runner, and as long as he can reach the guys you want to activate, you just run him up next to the guys you want to move. Massive flexibility, and one hell of an Achilles heel - if someone smokes your order runner, there goes your whole round. Now that's fun.

It would be cool if you played a game where you both had order runners and that was the only way to disburse your orders.

That would be awesome GB. That could even be the goal is to kill the other players order runner. How much fun would that be.

[InfinityMax]

GB, that would be brilliant. That sounds like a blast.

[Karkadinn]

GB, that scenario idea is terrific. I command someone to make this scenario and put it into the next Codex issue! LET MY WILL BE DONE!

Well he would be an important target for sure. If he died you could have another in reserve but he would have to make his way to the front lines and that could be devastating.

hmmm.... i cant seem to find the argonauts on MG's link, will somone direct me to them please?

[LilNewbie]

Or you could sacrifice another model you control to place a new runner (same stats as original) in your starting zone.

Their under unpainted metal i believe

Letting an adjacent figure take a turn after the Order Runner moves is probably is a good substitute for your the Runner's current ability. I would also give him an attack of at least 1.

The Order Runner scenario sounds like a lot of fun =)

Templar, the Space Rangers are unpainted plastic. And I think with some modding and different paint jobs they could be some pretty cool additions to the team.
