Looking at expanding into Dorfs, trying to build some Hammerstrike lists, why on earth(breaker) can you not take Thor as a free solo? makes it kinda awkward, would it be too powerful if he was free? What do you think PPs rationale is? except #designspace

Hadn't noticed this before. Seems really weird especially since he doesn't count towards free stuff either.
Seeing as how you can take him for free in Irregulars, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to in Hammerstrike. His abilities aren't that crazy anymore. Tune Up isn't that essential of an ability unless you are marshaling an Avalancher (IMO). Does anyone out there see any reason why in this situation?

It’s one of the older themes that were designed to be balanced against open lists. They’re gradually improving it by adding extra provisions like tough for trooper models or battle engines counting toward free points, but Thorbreaker and Rhulic Infantry received no favors in the edition change and won’t receive any attention in CID until new Rhulic models come out.

I feel like someone on the design team played into Thorbreaker too much in mk2 and just wouldn't let it go. Otherwise, no good reason.
