Tactics and Secrets
The Warhammer IIC is the ’Mech for the player who doesn’t require a lot of bells and whistles. In Spirit Cats style, this ’Mech starts with 4 energy damage and Pulse, with a range of 12 for some fairly long-distance combat. If you’re looking to split up your destruction, forgo using Pulse and choose two targets instead. Except for Pulse on the initial three clicks, the only other color you’ll see on this dial is grey for Heavy Armor, which extends throughout the length of the dial until the ’Mech hits Salvage. Be forewarned that this Warhammer’s weaponry and armor severely cut down its speed, which begins at a mere 6 and progresses to 4. They also don’t do much for its heat – even for a Spirit Cat unit, the heat effects start on click three and don’t let up. Even with these drawbacks, this 246-point gorilla may very well become a cornerstone for any respectable Spirit Cats player’s battleforce.

Design Notes
Spirit Cat units in general evoke a simpler way to play, as their flat dial profiles tend to make them much more reliant on their basic stats than on any special equipment they may have. The Falcon’s Prey Warhammer IIC is no exception, relying on a steady 9 attack for the better part of five clicks. The only complaint some Spirit Cat players may have is the ’Mech’s somewhat out-of-place heat dial, but the weapon load out on this bad boy is just too much for even a poor Spirit Cat to bear.
