as you all know the forgeworld gorgon has the ability to cary almost 60 men in the rules but the old netepic stat places the limit at 25 men but the new forgewold/oman gorgon is a lot so what i suggest that we make a new unit in the rules that is a king gorgon with a 60 man capacity represented by o-mans gorgon proxy its a whole lot easier then to change the rules for the gorgon it self

It could be easy to change gorgon transport capacity up to 10 and as discussed before and mostly accepted, base move increased to 15cm.

yep exempt for the DKoK list where the CHQ gorgon is meant as a load diff for the added company size in the Krieg list and the correct load size is 60 mean ai 12 stands it was the reason i changed the krieg company size and stucture

i know i have spent to much time with with "siege of vrek" and DKoK to make that bloody list

Another solution:

- Bring the big gorgone transport capacity up to 12 stands and let's keep standard infantry companies to 3*10 stands + 1 comissar + 2 CHQ.

This allow gorgons to have enough place to transport 1 or 2 command stands and avoid adding centaurs or rhinos or chimeras for them. The reason is in the core rules: if you charge with your gorgons, chq in smaller vehicles may be the target of snap fire -> not the same pinning class than gorgons and they could be valid targets...

Let the commisar keep his gorgon, why shouldnt he have the same amount of steel around him as the troops?
