Hey Everyone, I am fairly new to the faction and I was just wondering what people's thoughts on the Gatorman Bokor were. He looks like a super cool model to run but does he actually preform. Personally I don't care if it is a super meta unit but is their power at least good enough to put them on the table for cool factor?

Stupidly good with Rask. Works well with anyone who takes infantry and has a damage buff for them. Absolutely powerful enough in the right lists; with a damage buff the bokors are capable of soloing heavies.

One thing that may get over looked is his spell, Hand of Glory. He can just make a model stationary. Against jacks, they loose powerup focus (normally.). Battle engines get screwed if they needed to move. Same with dragoons. It's really good to have in the tool box.
But yes with a damage swing, the unit can activate. Charge with everything. The shamblers take their swings separate or CMA. Then the bokor starts removing them to boost damage and buy attacks into a heavy. The unit is then mostly gone, but it put out a massive flood of damage.
The current application of them has been seen outside of factions. Wurmwood takes a unit of bonegrinders as well. The bone grinder murder each other to give Wurmwood soul tokens and the Bokor corpses. It's a bit of nasty recycling.

If you can deliver him with Midas he's great fun. Calamity, Death March, and Battle Lust are all phenomenal things for the unit. You can easily have the Shamblers accurate enough to down most of a unit of infantry while the Bokor himself drops a heavy or even threatens a Colossal.

Stationary jacks still power up, unless it was meant that they have to spend the power up focus to shake. In which case yep.
Hand of Glory is still good. Stationary leaders cannot give orders for example.

Stationary leaders cannot give orders for example. "effectively" lose power up. I should have been more specific. To shake the effect they have to spend the one they'd get for free. But if you carve out a cortex and then stationary it, it has an even worse day.

But she's not flavor of the month quite yet. Though theres a lot of talk about running double fulcrum with her. So maybe she will get more popular... to your dismay
