Rules Reveal - Deuce & Razor Character Warjacks

Cygnar’s character warjack Deuce has been designed to elevate the tactical gameplay core to Cygnar armies. Tailored for play with Gun Mages, Deuce boasts the Accumulator ability, enabling it to build power and unleash a barrage of devastating ranged attacks. Thanks to its versatile cannon offering multiple attack types, Deuce can adapt to any combat scenario, ensuring your strategy stays versatile and effective.

Deuce also excels in maneuverability, as it is equipped with Reposition, allowing you to easily outflank opponents and gain tactical advantages. Finally, it’s True Sight ability ignores stealth and cloud effects, ensuring no enemy can hide from its powerful gaze. With Deuce in your ranks, your Cygnar army will dominate the field with precision, versatility, and unmatched firepower.

Introducing the Razor, the formidable Khador Character Warjack that redefines battlefield dominance. Armed with dual grenade launchers, Razor employs a targeting flare to expose hidden opponents, ensuring that no enemy can escape its relentless gaze. Complementing its ranged firepower is a powerful slug gun, delivering punishing blows that can send foes flying, turning the tide of battle with each shot.

In close quarters, the Razor becomes a force to be reckoned with thanks to its Ripper Shield. This devastating defensive weapon is designed to shred opponents who dare to close in, providing both protection and lethal counterattacks. With its perfect blend of ranged and melee capabilities, Razor is the ultimate companion for any Khador strategist looking to assert control on the battlefield.

“How dare you, sir! How dare you!” the Baron shouted, pounding the table for emphasis. His wiry mustache fidgeted upon his face, his expression livid. A servant astride him leaned in to pour juice, but he waved the man back.

“I assure you, it was not my idea, Baron,” Caine took a cup of steaming coffee as it was handed to him, and rubbed a temple. He wasn’t sure he wanted to hear the answer. He avoided looking at the baroness, though for her part she seemed content to daintily pick from a bowl of fruit before her. She looked radiant in a velvet dress of deep green.

“Would you have me believe you are not in charge here?!”

Caine raised an eyebrow, and looked over his coffee.

“I’m not sure I understand …”

“These unceasing escorts, sir! I am not a prisoner, nor are my actions suspect! Your men dog my every step beyond the gates. They refuse to leave me be. Always, they claim they act on your orders. I tell you this now, sir, it will stop!”

Caine set his coffee down, about to deliver his defense when he realized what the baron had said. From her place at the table, the baroness placed a napkin across her lap and smiled sweetly in his direction.

Taking a breath, he began again. “Baron, we are only here to protect you. Until such time as …”

“It. Will. Stop,” the baron repeated.

“Is there nothing else here I can offer you?” the baroness said coyly, a strawberry lingering on her lip as she spoke. Caine blinked at her, and then looked over at the baleful glare of her husband. He found himself about to laugh. Alarmed, he stifled it with an improvised coughing fit.

“I … kaff … I’ve no appetite for the moment, ma’am. Perhaps … kaff … later.” Caine pounded his chest, eyes watering.

“Our kitchen is always open to you, Captain. Please avail yourself, as you wish.” She smiled, swallowing her strawberry.

The baron scowled, impatient. “For pity’s sake, Sarah! He’s a grown man and can avail himself of your pantry whenever he likes! Now, Captain. Your word. I will have it!”

“Regarding?” Caine rasped, trying to regain focus.

“The escorts, sir!” the baron boomed.

“I didn’t … oh … right. There will be no more escorts. You have my word.”

The meal was interrupted as Gerdie burst into the dining hall. Nodding to the baron and baroness, Caine’s adjutant was breathless in coming to his side.

“Sir, the rangers have returned from evening patrol. They have found a mercenary camp.” He whispered in Caine’s ear, looking down at the baron’s reddened face with a genial smile. Caine nodded, tossing his napkin to his plate.

“I’ll take my leave now, Baron. Seems we have a ... development.”

He pushed his chair out from the table and stood. As he and his adjutant made for the door, Gerdie glanced back at the fuming nobleman. “Sir, did I hear you right? We’re to discontinue Malsham’s surveillance?”

Caine smiled cruelly, shaking his head. “No. But we’ll be certain to let him think we have.”
