I suggest that because there seems to be more dominatrix models in circulation than are really needed. But, that means the stat line should be nearly identical between the two (in my mind, at least). And hey, that's exactly what they are   Oh, hey look over there... (please excuse my ignorance).

So why not save it for variant list then... I'm not opposed to leaving it out but it's a characterful unit that won't require new miniature production because the conversion is very easy.  I'd say unless there is a reason to exclude it the Hydraphant is a good addition. Is there a reason it doesn't fit, either in Hamman's World or in the pending IA material (to the extent we know about it)? _________________ Neal

I'm not opposed to leaving it out but it's a characterful unit that won't require new miniature production because the conversion is very easy.  I'd say unless there is a reason to exclude it the Hydraphant is a good addition. There is no reason to exclude it from any list, and I do think it fits this list even better as its cost is so much lower then a Dominatrix. (500 to 350). A nice option. There's nothing to keep us (read: Jaldon) from changing this to a different world/campaign setting if we don't like the restrictions.  Especially with the new 40K material coming out it might be a good idea to go for a more "updated" setting for the list.

Remeber Neal, be careful, I am the nut case that tackled the Squat Army Lists and said at the time "Hey there is nothing stopping us from re-writing some of the background to make it what we want".

Actually I will be posting another letter to JJ with the v7.0 list and that letter poses some questions referring to model limitations/conversion possibilities, and a possible change to a different setting (Other then Hamman's World) so more model options could be included. I've been rifling through some of Forge World's IA books at the store for information and have become, curious  about some possibilities.

Won't hurt to try, but don't everybody get their hopes up. Myself I am pushing it as 'conversion' possibilities instead of new models, though.............new minis would be nice

But then again, being the unstable type that I am, I might do it anyways

Thanks All...................
