I don't expect anything more than giving him 30 boxes. PP seems fully commited into making Legion as bland and mediocre as possible so I'm "little" defensive when it comes to their idea of our "balance".
I believe it will suck, both compared to othere BE and for it's points.
After seeing Khador theme and comparing it to RoW. Yeah...

If the Throne has 34+ boxes Id consider it. Having higher ARM and more boxes than any legion beast would get me to consider running it.

I heard that it has the most life out of all battle engines I own two. This would make my day.

Having a lot of boxes does make it more interesting than it'd be otherwise. The Throne has a really good ARM value and with a bunch of boxes to back it up the thing might end up being awesome! I wonder if their intention is to make it more similar to the Hellmouth in terms of role? Highly resilient, long threat ranges and good at controlling space.

It can even eat some of that single wound shield wall thats coming back for d3 heals per dude. Suddenly spending corpse tokens to sling spells feels like more of a choice than a neccessity.

My thought was to give it drag makeing it a walking hellmouth (which it looks like from a model perspective) would be cool

I had already suggested - and rightfully shot full of holes - a completely left field idea of having the throne be a throne... where a model (small or medium base) could sit on top of it, providing some sort of vehicle for warlock protection. But the interaction (as someone pointed out, like with Rhays) would be bonkers. Still a fun idea for something different.
For something more realistic - has already been mentioned. More survivable, buff/debuff tech and some sort of synergy.

My random idea would be that the throne could forfeit it's initial attacks to take a special action to be able to place a friendly faction model within 4 inches in base contact with itself and the model has to forfeit its movement this turn.
In my head I was seeing the throne plucking out Carniveans of the front line and gently setting it down by itself and giving it a little pat on the head.
Helps bring a little hit and run back in to our lives without adding another model that further extends our threat ranges.
