Finding out what happens to Karchev is going to be the highlight of this book for me. I'm avoiding the fluff spoilers but wanted to see the pic.

[Seventhprophet]

thats looks awesome. Looks like they put him back in the life support section of the jack for now. I cant wait to read this

Epic Karchev Summer 2013


Perhaps what is happing to BigK IS the favor that Denny owes Karchev...

[Seventhprophet]

I'm super happy the only part of the text that jumped out at me was "I serve the motherland.". This makes me feel better about the speculation posts of warcasters swapping sides

[Mercykiller]

Karchev, leaner and meaner in a MOW chasis with elite cadre:MOw and brings espressos for the MOW ...

There's some kind of pattern to my thought processes, but it escapes me what ...

[Digilante]

I just want him to learn all of Cryx's dark secrets and bring them back to the motherland. Ghost Walk? Terminal Velocity? Death Ward? Parasite? Yes please.

[Steamwitch]

sorry to smash MoW caster hopes but he cant fit into a mow armour his life support is to big but i suspect hes undead after the no quarter. So its possible.

It has already started. We got Infernal Machine .

[Steamwitch]

on a side note if scavarius story in wrath is any indicator karchev will not switch a magzive resisted scavarius to the end and he was dead. Karchev is half there but thats better than dead. On top of that he still can cast spells unless cryx has magic handcuffs like vlad was in from protectorate. Im konfident he will make denny wish she did not bring her boy friend home to he parents.

Think about that a minute. Life support equipment. In an empire where the dead rule. Let it roll around in your mind a moment (as you obviously have, but figured it was worth pointing out specifically lol).

Yeah I don't think he's going to need life support equipment when the story's done, hence the 'sleeker' version of him

[kimek]

Definelty DON'T want MOW caster. We need more jack-casters and Man-in-machine is IMHo much cooler that some MOW-dude.

i would love for him to support mow. But i still want him in a heavy warjack. The look on peoples faces when they ask where is your warcaster? And i point to what they thought was a simple warjack. Priceless. Im supprised you havent corrupted a karchev modle yet!

[Mercykiller]

Uh ... I have. A while ago

[Steamwitch]

eww...(im sure you are used to this reaction by now. I really like how you made your army truely standout and stay legal. ) how could you?! I must see it!

[Mercykiller]

Ye olde banner in my signature is actually a link to it, but http://privateerpressforums.com/show...l=1#post845487 will take you right there

Let me just say I'd do backflips to have him in the sleeker armor, or attached to MOW, or towing units of MOW, or ... well you get the idea lol.

[Steamwitch]

if i had the cash i would make a polar oppisite to your army cool but in a weird way. But anything to mke mow shine. Like a joe.

[Mercykiller]

MOW Tyrant Commander Karchev

Just sayin

[Alzer]

Karchev is becoming one of my favorite characters in the fluff. He seems like a character that they'd just knock off as a mindless killing machine (ala Butcher) but he actually is a very wise, down to earth character with great love and pride for his homelands. And well, anyone IRUSK asks for advice is doing something right. I'm very excited to see how he conquors this whole Cryxian prisoner deal.

What's with Khador casters and getting kidnapped though? Vlad got captured by Vindictus, Karchev got stolen by Denny.

Karchev as an undead warcaster in Khador could be very interesting to see. I am Undead Warjack man! Feeeear meeee!

EDIT: I just looked through that thread the other day Mercykiller, very nicely done. I urge anyone who hasn't seen it yet to do so.

[HeadHunter]

Karchev, leaner and meaner in a MOW chasis with elite cadre:MOW

I would so TOTALLY be there. I like Karchev, but I'd swap eIrusk out of my planned MoW army in a second for a 'caster with Elite Cadre for Men-o-War.

[Kurb]

So far as kidnapping..I mean zerkova kidnapped a Deity.

[profparm]

You know how this round the new caster theme was, "Casters on Mounts (or w/ Sidekicks)". Well, what if the theme from the NEXT book is "Casters joining different factions"?

Cryx gets Karchev, in a different suit. We get someone either Cygnar who was brainwashed and handed a Doom Reaver blade OR possibly a Protector of Menoth caster that was originally a Khador worshiper of Menoth (if one of the warcasters fits that bill; I know the fluff claims a decent number of normal Menoth are originally Khadoran), and trading/conscripting down the line between all the factions.

Kreoss is khadoran born, but I don't think he'll help the Motherland out.

[Saekyn]

That quote, "I serve the motherland" had my mind jump to Denny corrupting Karchev and placing him inside a modified Deathjack chassis, activating him, and confidently asking his loyalties....only to have Karchev reply and tear the room apart....

Even glancing at the page it's obvious that won't happen, but man that's awesome to imagine.

[Col_Festus]

It sounds like 120mm casters are coming with Lylyth3 getting spoiled... Wonder if Karchev will be getting this treatment.

Karchev goes Voltron:

Form feet and legs (Juggernaut and Kodiak)
Form arms and body (Spriggan and Behemoth)
And I'll form the head

[DancingKossakMan]

I will flip my lid if cryx gets Kharchev.

edit:

Also, Cryx steam pipes are attached to his back.

[OMM_Lukav]

That was my thought as well. If Lylyth3 gots a sleigh, what the heck would Karchev get? Our first Caster battle engine, or a very large jack chassis perhaps??

[Col_Festus]

Possible that we could see our first "warcaster" upgrade kit. Make it for the conquest...

[Mercykiller]

So it turns out the Conquest was light on rules to give it room to house Karchev eh?

[Digilante]

Colossal Karchev would probably have to be the first caster with negative warjack points...

[RevolverAdamska]

.... " I SERVE THE MOTHERLAND" ... Imho ( dreaming about) Strakhov is the one for suicide-rescue mission ... And by achieve it he'll become EPIC Strakovh!

[StefDa]

Where has Lylyth been spoiled?

[Kræhe]

epic Strakhov *-*

Neeeeeeeeeeed!

[The_Bionic_Labrat]

.... " I SERVE THE MOTHERLAND" ... Imho ( dreaming about) Strakhov is the one for suicide-rescue mission ... And by achieve it he'll become EPIC Strakovh!

nah, this would be so damned awesome he'd skip strakhov 2 and go straight to strakhov3!

[Seventhprophet]

I think strakhov is the one Khador caster that I could care less about if he wanted to defect to another faction, lol.

I think Karchev should free himself and fight the whole way home

[RevolverAdamska]

Considering what you discover abour Karchev in Nq42 i doubt Hig Kommand won't order to find him at any cost.
