Character Bio:Wraithriders are the vanguard elite of an Ironclad advance, rushing ahead of the main force to break forward defenses and weaken morale before the enemy are overrun by the inexorable march of legions of ghastly cybernetic creatures. Their fast and aggressive flanking tactics force their adversaries into killing zones, where the rest of the Ironclad can apply their vast array of horrific firepower onto the beleaguered and hopeless.

CHAIN GRAB 9
After moving and before attacking with the Necrotech Wraithriders, one at a time, each Wraithrider may choose an opponent's small or medium figure within 3 clear sight spaces whose base is no more than 6 levels above that Wraithrider's height or 6 levels below that Wraithrider's base. Roll the 10-sided die. If you roll a 9 or higher, place the chosen figure on any empty same-level space adjacent to that Wraithrider. If the chosen figure is engaged when it is moved by Chain Grab, it will not take any leaving engagement attacks. A figure can only be moved by Chain Grab once each turn.

ROLLING MOVEMENT
A Necrotech Wraithrider cannot move onto a space more than 2 levels above its base.

They're Wild, so Otonashi hits them harder.

As a non-Pirate Unique Squad, the Widow can Hire them... but that might be too broad of a category to list as a "synergy".

Yeah I looked through a few of the books for wild units and didn't see that listed. But it would probably be an improvement. Do we think that would be "synergy imposed"? I took that to mean "imposed by this unit" rather than "imposed on this unit" but it could encompass both. (?)

For Hire Crew, I would be for it because there aren't too many unique squads and it would be very useful to see for the squads that would really benefit (like samurai). But I would also be against it because the category itself is very broad (the equally broad Unique Hero would clearly be too much). I'll wait for others to chime in here!
 
"Synergy Imposed" means "imposed on this unit."
 
Are these guys allowed to climb ladders? I'm guessing they do but it seems weird :p
They're Medium, they're single-spaced, and each ladder rung is only 2 levels above the previous one. Regardless of what logic says, the mechanics say they can do it.
 
When Morsbane negates them, they wrap their chains around their wheels for added traction.
 
You know, I did too. I might have to reconsider ordering these guys...I have such high temptations to play Frostclaws everywhere.
:unsure:
