	*[[Kragnos\|Kragnos, the End of Empires]]: Kragnos is an option for all destruction factions so is another big monster you can bring. Kragnos does a lot, no question, with a 2+ save those 18 wounds go far, they have more attacks then the Mega Gargant, ablity to increase the range and consistence of nearby destruction units and deal mortal wounds on a charge or damage. Kragnos problem is his cost: over 700 points. If you check the chart bellow, Son of Behemat armies let you basically take one mega or three mancrusher's for every 500 points, without anything cheaper this meann any army you throw him in will have a hole in it that can only be filled by a single solo Mancrusher. Is that worth it? Maybe not, if Son's lack one thing it's NOT giant monsters.		*[[Kragnos\|Kragnos, the End of Empires]]: Kragnos is an option for all destruction factions so is another big monster you can bring.

	None. However Mega Gargants can join other armies using the Mercenary rules (Including if you so wish; Mega-Gargants Mercs in your own Behemat army.) and some forge world monsters have the wording ''"This unit can be included as an allied unit in an army whose general has the destruction keyword"''.

	You do also have one other option that is sorta considered like an allied model: Incarnates. Currently we have only one: Krondspine Incarnate of Ghur and it is definitely a quirky choice to use. In general with an Incarnate you run the risk of it going wild if your hero gets popped, but good luck popping a 35 wound giant monster. It also gives utility aside from being a beat stick with it '[[Tyranid\|synapse-ing]]' ability to make nearby models all out attack if you all out attack with it, in an army that can sometimes lack buffs. Combined with not making enemies run from the giant's that inevitably going to beat there faces in (because giant), a bonus to casting if the hero in question also has a Lantern or arcane tome and it actually make's a case for it self. It's ~~400~~ point price tag ~~is competitively budget~~ so ~~it can help bid for~~ a ~~triumph or give~~ you ~~more points~~ in ~~case you do have both tome and Glowy lantern and want an endless spell budget~~.

Plus being an incarnate and thus hard to kill for any opponent and giving the Son's another excellent anvil choice that comes with great force-multiplying potential. It's 480 point price tag per a point hike so a little pricey, but than again not as much when you compare the other choices in the army which are themselves in the same price range. So your average Gargant player will probably not mind than much.

	**Probably the best all-rounder of the bunch. Definitely the go to option if you hate faction terrain like the [[Ossiarch Bonereapers\|OBR Tithe Nexus]] or [[Sylvaneth\|the constant sprouting Wyldwoods]]. Has a similiar damage potential to a fully powered up Warstomper, but it has fewer attacks but with a more reliable damage output. He is most effective at attacking enemies that try to hide in cover for that +1sv, but can easily face foes in the open as well but get +1 to damage when attacking encamped foes. Also has a new attack similiar to the Beast-Smasher. Instead of attacking normally it can pick 1 enemy unit within 3" and roll a 4+, if successful that unit immediately suffers 4d6 mortal wounds. An interesting proposition, but again it is on a 4+ and than requires rolling 4d6, while obviously a massive damage potential depending on what you fighting you should probably consider if just attacking normally would just be better. Also as the master of siege craft when carrying out a Smash to Rubble monstrous rampage roll a dice for every enemy unit within 3" of the terrain piece. On a 2+ they take d3 mortal wounds.		**Probably the best all-rounder of the bunch.
