Spriggan |
Prime This model is available in one Prime Army, Armored Korps. It can also be used in the Unlimited game mode. You can view the other Mk3 models that made it into a Legacy Army at this page. Note that the rest of this page is about the model's Mark III rules. |
The Spriggan trades the armored arms of its predecessor, the Devastator, for a heavy shield, a massive lance, and more versatile and longer-range grenade launchers that can fire either explosive projectiles or flares that illuminate hidden enemies.

Thoughts on Spriggan
Spriggan in a nutshell
The Spriggan is the third, most expensive, and most distinct, element of the "clamjack" chassis. It fulfills a completely different role than the Demolisher or the Devastator. It sports a weaker grenade launcher with nice utility against stealthy targets, and a shield to put its ARM above the average Khador level. Its war lance is also the second most powerful warjack weapon in the faction (excluding Colossals).
Combos & Synergies
If you are expecting stealthy targets in any form, you will definitely want this jack. As it is no slouch in melee either, extra mobility and accuracy are most welcome.
- Casters with Superiority - Irusk1 or Strakhov.
- Butcher 1 - Under Fury and his feat, this baby delivers a MAT 8 P+S 21 charge with 4D6 on the damage roll.
- "Jack Casters" - Karchev and Harkevich, both offer quite a lot for melee capable, tough jacks, especially SPD buff.
- Sorscha1 - her feat will make sure that your charge attack connects
- Sorscha2 - how about some Pathfinder from Boundless Charge? And what about one-rounding a heavy under her feat with the War Lance?
- Ranged infantry that enjoys stealth removal and the ability to ignore clouds, as in anything Winterguard.
Drawbacks & Downsides
- Lower MAT than the Juggernaut chassis (partially offset by Powerful Charge)
- Fairly expensive non-character warjack, it's price tag is the same or even higher than some character choices.
- Low RAT, which makes applying Flare difficult, but thanks to Dual Attack you also charge your target so you are close enough that the AOE cannot miss.
Tricks & Tips
- Enemies just have to be within, not completely within the flare's AOE; feel free to spread it to multiple models, if possible.

Trivia
- The plastic Spriggan is sold in one box together with options for the Demolisher and the Devastator.
- Originally released in Warmachine: Superiority (2006)
