Thinking about the next skorne heavy

[Redbaron2119]

Something Mr. Soles mentioned in another thread has me wondering. He claimed the ancestral guardian was toned down to prevent it from competing with beasts. What if we were given a heavy construct?
I would love to see Zaal's research come to fruition in the form of a gargauntuan sacral stone powered heavy construct. I love the look of the immortals and the AGs. I think constructs could add to the variety of our lists. The much lauded beast handlers wouldn't be effective with them making appear with somewhat less frequency in lists and maybe lead to a different type of extoller. Anybody else excited about this possibility?

I think you are reading too much into what I said. I meant in Mk I the Ancestral Guardian had the hitting power/effectiness we like to reserve for actual warbeasts.

That said, we may do that someday, just don't hold your breath for the Skorne Forces book.

Wow, AG can't compete with beasts but Alten, man hunters, MHA, great bears etc sure can. Sigh...I guess they shouldn't have released Metamorphosis. That book + mk2 WM sure got my hopes up.

[Redbaron2119]

This was just random speculation. I was just thinking how neat it would be to have constructs like circle.

[Hasten]

Hey, I totally dig this idea -- that would be a sweet concept for a warbeast =). Actually, it would make a rad Character warbeast, with a Zaal affinity.

Here's hoping!

Nope, I'm holding my breath... *Turns purple and passes out...*

I'd really, really like to see a beast that's not bipedal. And preferably with a cyclops riding atop :D

[notmikehill]

Interesting. I thought I would see an Ancestral Warlock before we would see a beast. Perhaps somebody who would give a commanding ability with souls or extollers or something similar to that.

Possessed giant void creature Mordikaar pulled out from the void tear. Perhaps a long dead creature brought back to life. Or why not have him finding a tiny bit of blood from a said Dragon, a little void manipulation and...A FLYING BRONZEBACK!!

Or, a big Venator style weapon strapped to a Titan with a Cyclops manning it...

oh oh, a Rhinodon who charges up eletricity through his spine growths for a ranged attack...

Screw it, juvenile Mammoth with a mounted Acuraii to reel enemies into it.

[viperidae99]

Ancestral Blastoise! :D

[Joroth]

I'm hoping for a heavy Basilisk. So all may bow before the Hypno-Toad

[planescapedm]

I'm hoping for our character light to be a basilisk


Mr. Soles, I really hope PP continues fieldtesting new models. I don't know if you have in the past. But I think it would be awesome if the community could help mold new models for our factions. Especially warlocks and beasts.

I have a ton of ideas for new beasts.

[Archibald]

I'd like a character titan, a heavy saurus and some new reptile-like light WB.
They said that Skorne have vast zoo to let loose, so I hope to see some new species ;)
(and a sheperd solo plus another beasts-loving warlock wouldn't hurt at all :P)

[planescapedm]

I always look in the monsternomicons for new ideas and the other beasts that live around the skorne like the IK Chimera and Mammoth are ridiculously big. There are a few others that have possibilities as well.

[DarkWonderer]

I would love to see Ancestral Guardian extra large. I used to love Ancestral Guardians in MKI. They were the models along with Zaal and Hexeris that made me play Skorne.

The idea of Zaal's charcter warbeast along with my wish of Extoller giving out Ghost Shot led my to a concept of Zaal's Cannoneer with one eye replaced with an artifical eye resempling the one Zaal uses. Imagine it having Ghost Shot, animus granting Hunter/Eyeless Sight and it's cannon having withering gaze... :D It sounds insane, but could be balanced into something truly awesome :) .
