Horus Heresy 3e Review: Kharybdis Assault Claw

Warpstone Flux Rating: 
⭐️⭐️⭐️
3.5/5 stars. Rounded down. The largest drop pod!

Background.
The mother and father of drop pods. The Kharybdis is a mighty large drop pod that has an impressive carrying capacity. The background explicitly notes that it is well used as a surface-to-orbit assault vehicle to exact vengeance against enemy space craft crew. It is also useful for scouring the battlefield by using its short range weapons and undertaking a scorched earth style policy.

Strengths. 
With a transport capacity of 22, this is a drop pod with serious carrying ability. Armour of 12 all around and 8 hull points is impressive. 

The claw comes with a Kharybdis missile launcher which although is short range can cause some pinning and has a good fire rate and strength value. Nice in conjunction with the innate BS=4 value. 

You can also swap out the carrying capacity for a single Walker model with up to Bulky=7. In other words, this is your leviathan transport solution. 

Weaknesses. 
The points cost is very high. Just below par with some land raiders. 

Builds.
There are no builds or options to discuss.
