3rd Infantry type?

Now on to speculating about Timo!

Timoshkin joined the Galvanic Defenders, and through long study and no end of experimentation, he has become one of the most accomplished technomancers of his time. His etheric helmet represents the culmination of his life’s work to-date. It draws magical power from the substance of reality, grants him limited mastery over gravity, and greatly augments his physical strength and speed. While other Galvanic Defenders blast their enemies from across the battlefield, Timoshkin charges into the fray, a spinning, weaving cyclone of crackling energy and thundering hammer strikes.

​Anyone else think that sounds insanely bad-ass? Sounds like a pretty offense based leader to me. :)

With greatly augmented strength and speed, I see him being very fragile but able to unload enormous amounts of damage, easily taking about full groups of rank 1 infantry.

I'm thinking two attacks. One an AoE based "weaving cyclone of crackling energy", perhaps even magical, and the second, a single target high damage attack, with knockback perhaps?

His limited mastery over gravity either could be either used to help his movement (ie. jumping over units/terrain) or hindering enemies movement (ie. causing the gravitational pull to strengthen around an enemy or himself, reducing movement by a few inches).

Well with this imagery:

The etheric helmet represents the culmination of his life’s work to-date.

Plus

Yet, with the invention of his etheric helmet and spear-hammer

All I am really getting is Elmer Fudd singing Wagner

Berserker Rage: For each damage on this model, it’s melee attacks gain [+1][RATE], to a max of [+3].

Oh man you're killing me here Mr. Black.......

So whatever unit has that has at least 4 wounds? That's monster level wounds and we know all the monsters.

Not really. Most rank 2 leaders have 2 resilience and 3 wounds, which could easily be seen as 1 resilience and 6 wounds. So, rank 2 leader works, which is what Timo is.

With Winterhawk being a 1R 5W, I think we can be certain that Berserker Rage belongs to Timo

I hope so. That's definitely one step towards making him an offensive powerhouse. He will be able to do a ton of damage with those extra dice, especially if he has some sort attack that hits multiple models.

I'm interested to see what his Inspire ability is (he is a rank 2 leader right, and not a specialist?). I wonder if it will make the Brood Warriors more offensive if he's on the field.

I wonder if Timo will have the Distraction ability. That could allow the Teknes player to take full advantage of Berserker Rage.

Looks like it's the only option to convince all my friends to band together and make an alliance of all houses in order to... survive three turns?

Here is my (two cent) suggestion for the Goritsi mercs (also known as the walking larder):
Monster Fodder: [Reaction]If a Zeti or Skorza model would be killed within 2" of this model, you may immediately move that (Zeti or Skorza) model into base to base contact with this model, if you do so this model is eliminated as the Zeti/Skorza model devours it's life energies to recover 1 wound.
End result - This model is killed, and the Zeti or Skorza model that would have been killed is alive with 1 wound regardless of how much damage it had originally been dealt.
