=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}} =
=== {{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
The Suppressor is a support style heavy warjack based on the Toro chassis. It brings a variety of debuffs to bear against an opposing army. With Dual Attack the Suppressor can apply its effects to slightly improve its melee game, although its primary function is the spray attacks. Many players treat the Suppressor as a tougher (and repairable) source of Rust, which can be critical in the current meta overflowing with amazing constructs.
Shooting Gallery makes it very accurate when I close, with dual attack it’s often better to charge just to get in even closer.
=== Combos & Synergies ===
* [[Prospero]] grants it '''Veteran Leader''' and Guided Fire to dramatically increase its ranged accuracy (and to a lesser extent, its melee aswell). Note that the Veteran Leader applies even if the Suppressor is not part of Prospero's battlegroup. If it is part of Prospero's battle group it also gains dispel on its melee weapons.
* [[Captain Eira Mackay]] provides her feat and either [[Flare]] or [[Alchemical Accelerant]] to buff the Suppressor's damage or accuracy. She also really likes both Ice Cage & Rust as sprays to enable her own personal output (especially if she intends to charge).
* The [[Vulcan]] can remove elemental immunities from would-be targets.
* The [[Retaliator]] can oil things up for him.
* [[Marshal General Baldwin Gearhart & Mr. Clogg]] has Hot-Shot to melt multiwounds units and hurt lights, as ALL damage rolls on its sprays will be boosted. He also provides [[Prey]] from his feat, which can make for some truly silly attacks once you factor in the Suppressor's debuffs.
* It forms an excellent pair with the [[Vindicator]]. Withering Humor debuffs the armour of living models, which the Suppressor struggles into. Rust debuffs constructs, which the Vindicator can put fully boosted Decrepitation shots into. Withering Humor and Ice Cage can also ruin the day of any warbeast if used in conjunction.
=== Drawbacks & Downsides ===
* With Rust it hits at effective POW 16 on both the fists and the sprays  (and  only against constructs), meaning you'll need another buff to hit like a "real heavy". Thankfully those are plenty in Crucible Guard. Having four initials baseline also helps immensely.
* If you just want a debuff platfrom it is hamstrung by it's low range and RAT outside of the Shooting Gallery bubble. So don't use it as one. Use it as a workpiece heavy with some incidental buffing.
* Sometimes you'll want to debuff one target and send a heavy to deal with something else and will have to prioritize.
* Its unbuffed threat range, especially in melee, stands at an unimpressive 9". But among Boundless Charge, Telekinesis, Mobility, Super Fuel, Road to War and Redline, and Arcane Propulsion every single CG caster has a way to remedy this.
=== Tricks & Tips ===
*'''Dual Attack''' allows you to charge and spray over your opponent. After movement, you can even shoot first and then complete your charge melee attack. Remember this to set up some interesting angles to catch the enemy by surprise.
** your guns will always be more accurate vs models you are in melee with lead with them.
*'''Ice Cages''' stack even with other models. If a Suppressor manages to tag a model with both its icy sprays, even a single one of your [[Combat Alchemists]] will be enough to trigger stationary, as it will have an effective RAT of 10 ''on the move''.
* Charges with Dual Attack allow for some excellent positioning.
* Keep in mind that the benefit from Ice Cage (-2 Def) or Rust (-2 Arm) can be applied before doing the melee attack. The Suppressor is effective Pow 16 into constructs and Mat 8 into non-constructs.
* Do not forget about the [[Suppressor]]'s two open fists. It is incredibly good at Rusting warjacks then throwing them at each other.
* You have to announce which attack type you use before you make your attack rolls, or you will have to default to the top position type printed on its card. In casual settings, most players will let this rule slide, and allow you to declare it after rolling, and assume you picked the "right" one for the situation. In tournament settings they might call you out on it, so it's recommended you make it a habit to declare such things at the appropriate time.

Dual Attack
Dual Attack

This model can make melee and ranged attacks in the same activation. When this model makes its initial melee attacks, it can also make its initial ranged attacks. A model with Dual Attack can make its initial melee and ranged attacks in any order you choose. This model cannot make ranged attacks after making a power attack.

  Errata-Dual Attack and Unit Charges (2023-10-27)
Question: If a unit with Dual Attack charges a single model, are all placed in melee range, and the first model kills the charge target, can the remaining members of the unit make ranged attacks, or do they forfeit their Combat Action because they don't have any enemy models in their melee range?
Answer: The check for melee range is done at the end of movement. If you kill the targets before they attack, they can still do their ranged attack. (Malkav13)
Explanation: This post is correct.

  Errata-Dual Attack and Special Attacks (2023-08-10)
Question: Can a model with Dual Attack make any combination of ranged special attack and normal melee initial attacks, or its melee special attack and normal ranged initial attacks? (Example: Bison Both Barrels and Ram, or Mariner Thresher and gunshot).
Answer: No.
Explanation: The bison can not use dual attack and also make a special attack. That is correct in that (Thresher) example too.

Pistol
Pistol

A model making an attack with this weapon targeting a model it is in melee with ignores the Target in Melee bonus when resolving this attack.

  Errata-Pistol (2023-09-17)
Question: Does the pistol benefit apply to models not in melee with the attacking model when the pistol is on a spray?
Answer: No, it only applies to models with which the attacking model is in melee.
Explanation: The intent is that a model only ignore the penalty for being in melee with the models that model is in melee with. Pistol only works against the models in the melee with the attacking model.

Attack Type

Each time this weapon is used to make an attack, choose one of the following special rules:


Ice Cage - This attack causes no damage. If this attack misses, nothing happens. On a direct hit a model hit suffers a cumulative -2 DEF for one turn unlesss it has Resistance:Cold. When a model without Resistance:Cold is affected by three or more directly hitting Ice Cage attacks in the same turn, it becomes stationary for one round.
Incendiary - This attack causes fire damage, and models hit suffer the Fire continuous effect.
Rust - This attack causes no damage. Instead, on a direct hit constructs hit suffer -2 ARM for one turn.
