OK, I'm going to admit this right now - this may be the LEAST responsible thing I've ever done, and I'm not normally one for spreading rumours but there's talk on the Retribution Community forums about a new character Light Myrmidon. Now, I don't know if this is true (in fact, the idea of Rahn having TWO Warjacks with Affinities is a bit odd at this stage), but this is copied directly from
this thread and, to be honest, I at least HOPE it's true.
Euryale
Retribution Character Gorgon Light Myrmidon
STATS
+1 MAT, +1 RAT. Same damage grid.
WEAPONS
Same weapons profile as a regular Gorgon, except each fist has +1 POW. Fists still have Combo Strike (*Attack) and Polarity Cannon still has Kinetic Grip.
COST
Equal to a regular Gorgon's cost +1.
ABILITIES
- Force Lock.
- Field Dependent.
- Affinity [Rahn]: While within Rahn's control area, Euryale has no back arc.
- Imprint: Enliven. (See Vassal of Menoth for Enliven, and Drago for how Imprints work if you don't know)
Now, I DO have my doubts, primarily because Rahn has Discordia, but this seems legit enough, maybe for it to be a typo? Ravyn would make sense... Also, Force Lock with 360 degree vision is brutal - it could easily shut down a whole unit if it can get in the middle of them. If it can get into a load of ranged specialists, there's very little they can do to stop it.
That's my thoughts anyway. Can anyone confirm this?
UPDATE - This is just for the Escalation League. Shame. :(
