I'd like to see convergence get some sort of generator that they use to power the jacks. Vectors are basically smart cars. They don't run on coal but they have to be charged from the energy in their temples. The huge base could let vectors power up in a short distance and have some sort of lightning gun like the conflux has. This reminds me, does Convergence have a non-vector model that acts as an induction relay? Or perhaps a tower that extends the range of induction to models nearby? I think that's the corollary? |

Just looked up the Corollary rules, it seems closer to your basic Focus Battery then the relay idea I was thinking about. However, mechanically it ends up being fairly similar so maybe some other idea for Convergence would be more suitable.

Khador I can't imagine. A winter guard pillbox? I mean the Cygnar one has a giant cannon and reinforces stuff so that rules out cannons and reinforcements for Khador. Maybe a Khador mechanik station that repairs stuff? A medic station that goves models Tough in a radius? Because PP has never, ever, eheheveeerr, given more than one faction the same mechanical model or theme. |

The corollary helps by storing focus from turn to turn and generating one a turn, but it still follows regular induction rules. |

Nope, vectors are the only things that have an Induction mechanic. |

They don't forget about Convergence, silly. They willfully ignore it.  It's funny because it's true. |

I don't see Trolls, Legion or Skorne getting any because Trolls and Legion are nomadic and Skorne are aggressors so those three wouldn't be in any one place to set up a proper structure. I don't think this logic holds. There's no reason a structure has to represent permanent terrain. It could just be a large object which is not movable under battlefield conditions. We can see the flip side of that with some battle engines: both the Vessel of Judgment and Sacral Vault are basically terrain which has been made movable with the addition of wheels and someone strong enough to push/pull it. So large shrines or Kriel Stones could fit as structures. A larger spawning vessel for Legion would be perfectly plausible - they clearly take them with them as they move around, but can't move them when under fire. |

Khador will just have a "field hospital."
In go the wounded winterguard, out come doom reavers. It's a miracle!

Is there a newsletter to which I might subscribe? the cut of your jib is rather delectable.

I might like to see a structure Krielstone, and I wouldn't be surprised.

Actually i kind of would like if strictures had different rules than what they do now so that models like the shifting stones could be made into structures and in the future there could be non huge based models as structures like krielstones or electrotowers.

If anything Cryx's structure would probably be a giant Soul Collector with similar functions as a soul trapper only much more durable, added things I could do with souls, and longer collection ranges. I'd imagine something like 20" soul collection range, but limit the range of what it can use souls for so while it can collect the souls of any enemy on the battlefield it can only transfer them to things within 5-8" or if it had something like the old Wraith Engine cloud mechanic produce clouds completely within 10". This way while it can collect from anywhere it still needs to be up front or it's collection of souls isn't going to do much.
Massive imobile soul cairns similar to the one in the Orgoth Temple in the mark1 fluff does seem like something Cryx would be attempting to engineer and build throughout the mainland.

Circle will probably get a large standing stone/physical representation of the leyline network. Likely will generate forests and/or magic within a radius, given that I suspect we're going to see the Druids as their first theme force.

Because PP has never, ever, eheheveeerr, given more than one faction the same mechanical model or theme. Maybe a few years down the line but not when they just launched a new type of model. None of the battle engines were particularly similar they were launched and they still aren't. These aren't random solos, they're big expensive models. Also, I wouldn't bet on Trolls getting a krielstone. Big stone monuments are Circle's thing and they seem to want to push that. |
