#Panoply pathfinder upgrade

Storm Guardians are… Storm Guardians, their close combat weapon is a straight upgrade to normal fists (+1 damage and +1 attack), but you’re here for the heavy weapons. The leader can re-roll a single missed attack roll with their rifle, which is pretty neat, so take them if you don’t have a really good option. If they get into close combat, you’re probably boned. If someone does get too close to them, you have a Shuriken Pistol, which is short ranged and less accurate, but does have that delicious rending. You just want to park these dudes and take pot shots for the whole game. However, the main bonus of Rangers are they can shoot without breaking Conceal (which makes them even harder to hit anyway), and if they’re in cover and DO get hit, their defensive cover bonus is doubled compared to normal. A Sniper Rifle that hits on 2’s(!), does 3 damage and adds a mortal on a crit. Rangers have pretty much a single load out, but it’s what you’d expect from a Ranger. It’s nice, and it’s gonna let you do more damage with each of your attacks. Some less so.įirstly, all Shuriken weapons have a rule called Rending, which basically means if you crit, you turn another hit into a crit. If you don’t have a leader, you can replace one of the models in one of the Fire Teams with a leader type model, some of these are really good.
