Finished - XV15 Suit: Team Leader





Here are a couple of pics of the Team Leader for my XV15 team. At the moment they normally take the field as a squad of three with a couple of drones controlled by the leader.

Their main function is to harrass the enemy flank by jumping out from cover and straffing with their burst cannons before disappearing as quickly as they arrived. They also work quite nicely as a hard-hitting fast-attack unit because of their heavy armor combined with jetpack movment.

All my unit leaders are distinguished from the rank and file by having a white helmet and shoulder guard. I find it makes them stand out from the rest of their unit, without requiring a hugely different paint job. This way you can include them when batch-painting the unit and then quickly add the white bits afterwards.
