Well I am sorely tempted to buy this 8829402684. ?48 pounds for all the white scars  would ever need.

You may well be right, I dont own a 40k WS army and have undertaken to revise this list to get some momentum going as id like to field them in E:A.

The idea of fielding an upgraded leader came about as a suggestion to make the bikes more worthy of a 400 points cost. ?As the list has evolved the name Khan was proposed and I like the sound of it.

The main reason for introducing the character is for flavour and to give the WS a bit of an edge to make up for their many restrictions. ?I agree that extra units should be introduced sparingly, however for all the deployment and heavy weapon limitations the only new unit is the bikes. ?I see this idea of a Lieutenant-level character as in fitting with the WS and hopefully not overpowering them, however they will need to be playtested first to see if this is true.

I had a look, and the Khan is indeed the equivalent of a company captain. (And the Great Khan is the chapter master).

I normally try to give constructive rather than destructive critisism, but I really think that this isn't a good idea. It really begs the question why the white scars and not other SM chapters? Is a 'squad leader' type character really going to make such a difference at Epic level?

I would strongly suggest either make the character included in the cost a proper SM character, or drop the character. You can always find another way of making them worth 400 points if they need to be 400 points!
