Thanks for the compliment jimmyzimms.
Yeah, I can come up with something for that. Probably. Mind, I have no idea what it's W40K stats are, but I'm sure I can get some data from a wiki somewhere.
Without looking anything up...
Based on the scale, it almost has to be a Knight for Pinning Class purposes. Still, it's a bit on the small size for a Knight. Thus it is a "Scout" Knight. This means that while it can Pin any model of Vehicle or lower Pinning Class (including other Scout Knights), it cannot pin standard Knights or above. [This is something I developed for a side project I've done utilizing the Points Formula to give NetEpic stats to another range of models that I have.] Thus it's Pinning Class value for the formula is 3.5.
It would likely have the 'Battlesuit' property as well. Well, as a Knight it cannot technically have the Battlesuit property, but as it would be the same technology it is reasonable to assign it the abilities conferred by Battlesuit. In other words, it would have Quickdraw, Fire on the Fly, and "May fire at Stealth models that are more than 25cm away."
Based on that "backpack", I'm guessing that it has the Jump ability at the least and might possibly be a Skimmer. If a Skimmer, probably the 'no pop up' type.
It appears to have a Railgun (right arm) and a multi-barreled cannon of some type (left arm). Based on existing (NetEpic anyway) models, I'd guess a Burst Cannon for the left arm. Probably similar to the XV-8 Mk1, but with a longer range - probably 50cm, and just a 180 front fire arc. The Railgun stats would probably be about the same as the XV-88, but also just a 180 degree front fire arc.
Move rate would probably be 20cm.
Save ... I have no idea. Possibly base of 3+ as it has more mass than even an XV-88. Possibly with a fixed save, as all other Battlesuit models have, but probably only at F6+ due to larger size.
CAF also no clue. Possibly about +3 as that makes it slightly better than a Hammerhead - more maneuverable due to being bipedal, slightly better than an XV-8 due to more mass to move about, but not much better because it is Tau.
Right, that could work. Let's see what that comes up to. Stats of:
Pinning Class: Scout Knight Terrain Access: Knight Move: 20cm Special: Jump Save: 3+ / F6+ CAF: +3 Railgun: 75cm, 1, 4+, -3, Penetrating 1, 180F Burst Cannon: 50cm, 4, 4+, 0, 180F SA: Fire on the Fly, Jump, Quickdraw, Target Stealth Morale: 2
Under the Points Formula, the above comes to 182.4 points, which rounds to 182 for a formation (Card) of 1 model. Comparing similar Points Formula values to NetEpic Gold values, these stats should cost 100 under Gold.
I should probably go look that up in a wiki now to see where I went wrong. I may even do that later...
