Editing Canoptek Reanimator (section)

==Tabletop==
On tabletop, what has been said in the fluff can be accurately applied to the crunch. Their Atomiser Beam Lance has this special rule called '''Nano-Scarab Reanimation Beam''': which, in your Command Phase, you can select one friendly Dynasty unit within 9" of this model. If you do, until the start of your next Command Phase, while that unit is within 9" of this model, add 1 to Reanimation Protocols rolls made for models in that unit. Also, were we the only ones who immediately felt the urge to yell 'cheese!' upon hearing of this thing?

...too bad the 9th edition rules for [[Skub|Reanimation Protocols]] are out now, and this thing has been revealed to be an [[Fail|overpriced heap of scrap metal]] that nobody in their right mind will ever even consider to field. It peeks out of most cover (assuming you aren't using the Obscuring terrain trait; which instead makes intervening terrain pieces block LoS to anything not touching it), the range of its gun is pathetic, it doesn't really want to be in melee, it can't hide behind troops like a character and at T5, lasguns can pling it off the table if they really want to. All in all, it's a Cryptek except worse at everything a Cryptek does. But hey, if you glue a laser pointer on top it can count as a [[Canoptek Doomstalker|Doomstalker]], probably?

After the points reduction, it's ''slightly'' less insane to use, but it's still 80 points for a buff to Reanimation Protocols from a fragile body. Maybe if you hide it behind obscuring terrain while advancing a 20-blob of Warriors, it can create an uncomfortably sturdy shield wall.
