Although technically a fast attack unit, this monster hits and behaves more like a lord of war. It is very fast though, moving with a speed and agility normally only seen on fliers, while being deceptively tough (despite being "only" toughness 7, it has a 5+ invulnerability save and access to a 5+ feel no pain save). And then there's its attacks. It has no ranged weapons, but instead has two, very powerful, melee weapons, and an ability to deal mortal wounds if it beats the units strength on a D6 (which is where it gains its feel no pain save).

All of this means that the Dimachaeron (as long as it doesn't get shot off the board) can duel quite happily with most targets, and come out smiling.
