8th Ed. Something i'd like to see, but would never happen.

[Poqenichi]

It's something that not many, if any people have discussed. I was thinking about the idea of having slaves as a unit choice. Wayward souls that have ventured into Lustria foolishly and their lives have been spared by the Old Ones, only to be used for a higher cause.

Core unit could be something like Bretonian/elf slaves controlled by the will of a Slann or a skink priest.

Special or rare unit could be something along the lines of a large creature chained and being controlled by 2 or 3 kroxigors.

I know this would be VERY unlikely, Lord Kroak will learn a new spell before this happens, but it would be interesting and bring far more variety to our ranks.

What do people think?

With the push towards big models this edition, I can definitely see the krox-controlled creature happening. Possibly a thunder lizard?

Fits with the old fluff too, slann used to lobotomize humans and have them as slaves in battle. Picture of the old slaves:

Also yeah, that would be cool

I think a Thunder lizard would be far too large to be controlled by krox, the fact that only the slann could only just control it's tiny mind to divert it away from cities that they were charging towards, but i'm sure there's other creatures deep inside Lustria that could fit into this, and would be pretty awesome, I hate the fact we lack large monsters.

That model looks epic, it would be cool to see something like this brought back.
