There’s a new Kill Team coming and they aren’t your typical Heretic Traitors. Here’s what The Bloodied can do with an Ogryn!

Kill Team: Moloch is coming and you’ve probably seen the new plastic Traitor Guardsmen kit coming. Oh and turns out they aren’t “Guardsmen” they are “Corpsemen” — and yes the spelling on that is intentional.

Now, getting a look at the Corpsemen, we were wondering how they were supposed to compete with the likes of the Space Marines included in the box. But you should underestimate them at your own risk. These Traitors have a few tricks up their spiked sleeves. Turns out they aren’t afraid of the side effects for using Performance Enhancing Drugs…

Yep! They’ve got their hands on a batch of Stimms which can give them a major boost. Those Stimms can be used on the Ogryn who’s already got a beefy profile for this weapons.

You can probably see where this is going. Juice him up and he’s ready to make pulp of anything that gets in his way! Oh and speaking of beef, he’s even got a rule for how much muscle he’s packing:

Yeah, that’s going to be one powerful target to topple! If that Ogryn gets in range Emperor be with whomever he starts slapping around. Even Marines are going to have tough time dealing with him up close. “Oh I’ll just shoot him before he becomes a problem” I hear you thinking.  Yeah…Games Workshop has a pro-tip for countering that plan:

“Selecting Recon during the Scouting step gives the big lad a free Dash, and the Traitor Enforcer’s aptly named Enforce action can spur him on further. Add in the Traitor Commsman’s Signal action for an extra AP to spend on more Dashes, and the Ogryn becomes a muscle-powered rocket ship.”

That’s one “muscle-powered rocket ship” I do NOT want to see launch at me.

What do you think of the Traitor Guard and the Ogryn?
