So what's your favorite warjack and why? I left out characters as they're in their own league or on the bench drooling.
My favorite warjack is honestly the destroyer. Sure he could use a small tweak, but we dont have a jack that does what he does at a similar cost. Behemoth can do far better, but almost double the cost.
We dont have shooting jacks besides him. Couple him with any of our many supportive casters and he becomes accurate and can put out heavy damage. Works wonders with guidance. Can also operate very efficiently with just power-up. I love this guy, he has sniped many key models and bested other warnouns in melee.

Behemoth is a character and you've listed the Spriggan twice.
This is a tough one, personally I think we have a lot of cool jacks. The Spriggan is my favourite visually, but it's tough to find a place for him in a list these days.

That's what happens when you make a thread before going to sleep. I never could decide if Behemoth felt like a character jack, even though he is technically a character.
Spriggan is definitely a runner up for me. I have a soft spot for utility jacks. Accurate on the charge, tougher than other jacks, removes stealth/clouds, bulldoze, reach. Great jack, but he is a bit hard to find a home. I feel like most lists today don't want to go beyond WJ points.

Juggernaut! It's just the epitome of Khador for me; you can keep all your fancy arc nodes and blessings, but if you don't deal with me I'm going to hit you so hard that even Butcher would grudgingly nod at the destruction.

Devastator. I don't field it as much as I'd like now in my lists, but this 'jack is so much fun. Especially with Butcher1.

Destroyer, it's great at spot removal, it's a great scenario piece and it's not too hard to support, it's also on the cheap side of things. Unless I'm packing a colossal chances are I'll be running a destroyer.

Behemoth! I wish he was a few points cheaper, but I love him.

Man i do love me a behemoth, paired with karchev he gets some great movement and shooting shenanigans. I do wish he would get looed at, maybe picking up a rule or dropping a couple points.

If behemoth got a point cost drop, gained dual attack and was available to be used in other themes then he'd be perfect...imo

That would be the dream, 22/23 points, give him a bond (irusk/karchev?)for dual attack, he'd be excellent.

Personally, I’d take Behemoth in a slightly different direction. Points drop, unquestionably, but its offensive power is already top-notch. Instead I’d give it +1 ARM and basically some colossal rules, like Massive and no disruption. I mean, (if I remember my fluff correctly) Behemoth is like double the tonnage of a Devastator; he shouldn’t be easy to move around.
My problem with Behemoth is that as-is, he’s effectively no more difficult to destroy than an 11-point Marauder, and vulnerable to every control effect ever that can neuter him. I hate that.
Also, I’d allow it in Armored Corps.

He was ARM 21 originally, for 25 points I don't see a reason not to give him back that extra point of ARM.

Arm 21 and some steady/sturdy would be nice. Id love to see him with a bond or just in another theme. Man would AC love that fire support.

Conquest. And maybe just because of the model, which is one of the most awesome and brutal-looking things Khador can field. (Also, I do believe it is a good jack, especially with some powerful single-jack upkeep like Superiority (or Redline if you feel very adventurous...))
