Autilon Skorr background question.

Recommended Posts

I know from those that attended the HH weekender that Autilon Skorr got some rules updates in book 6 but was there any expanding on his background?

Is he still just what you get on his one page set of rules or does he make an appearance in the main story?

 

Thanks

 

Vogon.

It is either a dodgy take on a Hydra, or that of a lion/wolf. I believe it has not been stated either.

 

I am leaning more towards the Hydra with the similarities to the headhunter sprues that are available now and the fact that it makes perfect sense.

Skorr suffered a shameful failure at Fortress Stranivar and fell from the favour of Horus and Alpharius. Later, he got the short straw of heading up an attack on the forge world of Mezoa. He ropes in the 114th Grand Battalion of the Iron Warriors and throws them into the thick of the meatgrinder to suffer horrendous casualties while his Alpha Legion forces use the distraction to attack isolated and weaker targets.

 

In the end,

the Iron Warriors only agree to the final assault on the promise of Alpha Legion support, which of course never comes, leaving them cut off and facing death. Skorr attacks other targets while the defenders are busy with the Iron Warriors. Dreygur, the leader of the Iron Warriors Battalion, joins Cassian Dracos, a Salamanders dreadnought, formerly their legion master, and now having become a prophet of sorts within his group (and it's deliberately unclear precisely what causes his turn), and the Alpha Legion are forced to retreat, with Skorr having lost an arm in the process.
