ServoBadger Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 All being well I'm taking the first company for a spin for the first time since 7th on Friday. 25 Terminators, a Terminator Librarian, a Furioso Dreadnought and two Stormravens, all lead by Captain Karlaen. Is it competitive? Probably not. Will it be fun? Hopefully! Anyway, I was wondering what warlord trait would be most appropriate for Karlaen, since he's not actually a special character any more. He will of course be carrying the Hammer of Baal. Any thoughts on what fits him best? Helias_Tancred 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin777 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I'm thinking either heroic bearing or artisan of war (adamantine mantle) are the most fitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helias_Tancred Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I always like Speed of the Primarch. Best wishes for a fun game. Yeah I think I'd like him swinging that hammer first and not having to rely on 4+ rolls. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I like Gift of Foresight as the ability to get some rerolls on a hitty, tanky character is never a bad thing. Karlaen hasn't been fleshed out in the background as much as some other characters so I don't think that there is an obvious "fluffy" answer.

I used to love what he could do back in 7th - rerolling reserves and a bonus to seize the initiative was great - but you're right, there isn't anything obvious now. I'll look at all the suggestions and pick one, thanks! Helias_Tancred 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used him often as my warlord back in 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Given that he leads the 1st Company, Rights of War could be useful and fluff to give nearby Veteran units ObjSec. Helias_Tancred 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FormelyKnownAsSmashyPants Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I vote Artisan of War with Adamantine Mantle like Paladin777 suggested. Helias_Tancred 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
