Prime Mine (*Action) - Replace this model with a mine marker.You can have up to three mine markers in play at a time.

Able to apply his arcane power to improve the strikingpower and fuel efficiency of his 'jacks, Darius and hisbattlegroup can respond to any threat with an alacritythat surprises his enemies. More than one Khadorankommander has ordered an attack based on intelligence thatsuggested Cygnar's warjacks were too far from the front torespond, only to have these plans shattered by the rapidarrival of Darius and his pack of devastating machines.Recent fighting has also given him experience battling bothagainst Menite forces and Cryx. Captain Dominic Dariusshirks from no challenge, standing resolute and seeminglyinvincible alongside his men and warjacks even whenseriously outnumbered.

.'11: thesecapabilities would have been enough to earn.'ct,the grease-stained, hard-hitting captain is also a'rL~nseleader and an adept tactician. As much as hedateshis machines, he is also good with his soldiers.\i~elsathome with the enlisted men and women, andnr,dnispragmaticdemeanor and willingness to get his~di!lya refreshing change from the formal reserve ofQiii~rs.He is known for his ability to quickly assess ane1dsituationand ably direct his subordinates amidst0\ofbloodyengagements.

\ ~\lensi\'emilitary experience stems from frequentwilhKhadoran forces in the northern theater. He has

~al'ilyinvolved in most of the recent engagementsinomwoodand provided key relief to the fightinghomNorthguardwhen that great fortress was finallySincethen he has been kept busy helping maintain

aI1Jck~ employed by the vital border patrols alonga~on'sTongue River, working closely with peers of

enlaryabilities like Captain Jeremiah Kraye.

h~avyarmor of his rig allows him to withstand astoundingpunishment. He can advance into the most destructiveJ~saultsor artillery barrages alongside his warjacks, whichiliords him great control of the battlefield. Surrounded~. his 'jacks, the warcaster can charge into the midst oftheenemy to tear out the heart of their attack while theCygnarantroops advance behind him.

Dariusoccasionally loses sight of the fact that even with his~or, he is not quite as resilient as a warjack. Pausing to~ke repairs in battle has resulted in some close calls for therznds-onmechanik. It was in precisely this kind of situation-mathealmost lost his life after exiting his armor during theghtagainst Cryx at the Temple of Garrodh. After suffering:mageto a joint in his armored rig, he climbed out to':pairthe otherwise inaccessible gears. It was during thisJ.omentof vulnerability that Skarre Ravenmanc ambusheddgrievously injured him. Had the Pirate Queen not been

Most of her formative combat experiences were againstthe legions of Cryx along the Broken Coast. The relentlessundead raiders could not be demoralized or routed, andthe necessity of their complete destruction left a lastingimpression on Sloan. Tnaddition to joining periodic patrolswith the Third Army, she has proven herself againstKhadoran border raiders while attached to the First andguarded the Black Hiver from Menite incursions alongsidesoldiers of the Second.

@ Weapon Master

Sloan advanced swiftly through her training in the MilitantOrder of the Arcane Tempest. Her instructors noted herprodigious talents early and recognized her potential as awarcaster. While Some gun mages approach combat witha duelist's disregard, Sloan sees herself as a soldier and her\varjacks as simply another set of weapons at her disposal.When she graduated from the Tempest Academy nearthe top of her class, she was fortunate to be placed underMarkus "'Siege" Brisbane to serve her time as a journeymanwarcaster, a mentor who suited her perfectly.

During a brutal clash against Feora, the Protector of theFlame, Stryker's enemy ignited the tl'mple where theyfought in a desperate gamble to save her own life. Strykerhad to choose between pursuit of his enemy and saving theinnocent Menites around him. This was a choice that offeredthe last chance of redemption for his soul. After he ensuredthe safety of the J\.1enites, the burning building collapsed onhim and nearly ended his life.

Given carte blanche to wage war against the enemies of thecrown as he saw fit, Lord Stryker assembled a force handpickedfrom the best of the Cygnaran Army to create his "StormDi\'ision" to replace the 6th Division of the Second Anny.Hethen ordered the ~rrest of every Mcnite man, woman, and childin eastern Cygnar.

There WilS never any doubt Finn \vould be a lifer, andheearned the rank of sergeant in record time. He was a manwho could leild others in battle and sec them throughtosafety. As a sergeant he was assigned to Northguard andattached to the prestigious 95th Trencher Company knownas the "Northguard Gravediggers," where he served fornearly a decade and rose to the rank of master sergeant.He further distinguished himself fighting with the 95thinkey engagements after Khador's invasion of L1ael.,Maxwellremembers each friend lost in those conflicts and is abletorecount battle stories about everyone of them.

One particularly notable incident occurred during thewithdrawal from L1aeI, when several young soldiers go!separilted from the main column after a miscommunication.Master Sergeant Finn personally went to find themand found the squad taking sniper fire from a pair ofWidowmakers. \'\Tithhalf the unit shot down and the othersunder cover, Finn took matters into his own hands. l\'otwanting to reveal his position with gunfire, he detached histrencher knife from his rifle and stalked the Widowmakcrsone after the other. He took a bullet in his shoulder beforebringing down the second sniper, and then he led thesurvivors the five miles back to their column. He bled theentire \vay, but he would not allow his wounds to be treateduntil his men were safe. This event sealed the larger-than.life status of Maxwell Finn ilnd is often described to youngtrenchers in training.

The fighting at Northguard further ccmented Finn'sreputation among the Trenchers as "thc toughest bastardalive." Most of his men were killed in the battle, and he \..•.a5knocked unconscious and listed among the missing. Whenhe regained consciousness and reillizcd that the front hadmoved south, putting him behind enemy lines, he wastedno time in finding the other survivors. The story of how heand that ragged group of Trenchers rejoined the CygnilranArmy at Point Bourne quickly became the stuff of legend.

The brashness and cocksure attitude of his youth never leftCaptain Finn as he fought on the front lines against Khildor.In one battle Finn tore loose an old fixed-cmplacement mini-slugger-a precursor of the chain gun too cumbersome to bewielded by most-and chargcd forward, spraying the enemywith bullets. No one has had the guts to tell him to put it
