She's had the title for years, but no second version. In a more normal faction, that kind of title change would have meant she went epic years ago. I'm not sure PP know what to do with her in terms of gameplay.

I think PP mentioned on Primecast like 1-2 years ago that epic Ashlynn was a thing that they intended to do. When it'll actually happen is entirely unknown.

I wonder if Ashlynn 2 might faction-jump, Caine 3 style? Struggling to think of a faction she could jump to though: not Khador or a Hordes faction, Cygnar already shares Caine and Constance with Mercs; Protectorate would seem to be the most appropriate choice, but I can't really think how that would actually work out, fluff-wise. Convergence could be... interesting? I can kinda see her joining Cryx, but only if she was killed in the battlefield and raised again; in that case she might accept an eternity of undeath as long as it allows her to keep killing Khadorans.

I had this thought, then realized Crucible guard is gonna be a thing... soooo possible Crucible guard with some way of her also being allowed in Mercs? Was the only thing I came up with.

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting about those guys, that would make sense. Maybe just make her a Partisan warcaster.

I'm afraid I don't understand what you're trying to say? Are you suggesting that Ashlynn 2 is "locked in" as a plane-jane Merc caster because of an old High Command card (that I think predates MkIII)? Perhaps, perhaps not, but since the question of how to make her somehow different arose, the idea of having her cross factions seemed relevant to the conversation. Plus I was bored.

In the vein of battle engine warcasters, she's going to be the first one from mercs. Partisan Crucible Guard riding a tank. You heard it here first.
Edit: I have zero evidence to support this, but the part of my brain that shuts off at "that would be dooooope....." won't stop saying it.

read aftershock before speculating, maybe? art was commissioned and the character conceived years ago Sadly I can't seem to find much time to read these days. Or paint. Plus I find PP's fiction hard to follow right now (well, it always has been, but it happens to be worse than before for me right now). I haven't actually played the the game for over a year (for a variety of reasons). I still enjoy the forums for a sense of friendship and camraderie. I don't really get that from you though. Besides my earlier post was not speculation (which implies a belief that there is some actual likelyhood of something happening), and more just random baseless "what if" debate just for the sake of having something to talk about. The forums have been a bit quiet lately, and as previously mentioned I was bored. Maybe every suggestion I made may have had less than 0% probability of actually happening, I don't know; but hey, a small handfull of forumites seem to have seen fit to join in the discussion, and I enjoyed reading their posts.
