Perhaps they dread mobs could get access to them?
I'd like that - seems fitting that the little dudes would tag along with their 'big bruvva'.

And/or maybe the supa stompa?
Can't see any reason why not. Provided the Kustom and Mekboy variants are suitably/subtlely different, then it gives you some nice choices when list designing. Poss make the Mekboy have extra shields, or DC5 or 6 for an extra 50/100 pts - then you have the Kustom/Supa/Mekboy Stompas as Light/Medium/Heavy variations.

I saW them as being transports in the stompy list and only made them available on that basis.
Interesting. When list-bashing I viewed them mainly as decent fire bases, with transport as a bit of a bonus. Mainly because of the cost I thnk, the amount of points required to mech even a small warband is quite steep. And because the speed value of the W/E and INF is the same, they were only considered for the (very good) armour benefits.
I'd be interested in trying out a 'Stompy' version of the Battlefortress. Something slower but heavier armoured (and that stomps - no wheels!) would fit the fluff. A la the Gorgon troop transport.
Thoughts?
