Horus Heresy 2e Review: Pack Thegn

Warpstone Flux Rating: ⭐️⭐️
2/5 stars. Cheap enough to be useful, but hardly a great HQ pick outside of small points value games. You might slot one in alongside other characters if you have space in your roster?

Background.
Potentially being the only survivor of their original squad, or maybe even disgraced, the pack thegn is a veteran of many campaigns. They will tie themselves to an accepting Jarl and lead troops to further victories for them. 

Strengths.
For a very small points cost, this centurion consul gets counter attack, alongside an option on skirmish. Both might or might not be useful depending on the battle in hand. 

Weaknesses.
It is what it is. A very modest and small upgrade to a consul. 

Builds.
Pack Thegn in Cataphractii Armour, Chain Fist (110 points). 
Standard configuration really. Nothing special.

Pack Thegn, Aether-Rune Armour, Thunder Hammer (125 points).
More expensive than the above, but you do get that amazing extra wound!
