Model Advantages and Abilities

Pathfinder	This model treats rough terrain as open terrain while advancing. While charging, slam power attacking, or trample power attacking, this model does not stop its movement when it contacts an obstacle. No errata for Pathfinder (Create)
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. Infernal Ruling: elswickchuck (Bulldog) - PP Community forum   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. Infernal Ruling: elswickchuck (Bulldog) - PP Community forum
Construct	This model is a construct, and is not a living model. No errata for Construct (Create)
Reposition	At the end of this model/unit's activation in which it did not run or fail a charge, this model can advance up to {{{2}}} inches, then its activation ends. No errata for Reposition (Create)
Configuration	At the start of each of this model's activations, it gains +2 MAT or RAT until the start of its next activation. No errata for Configuration (Create)
Soul Vessel	This model generates a soul token as if it were a living model. No errata for Soul Vessel (Create)

Changes and Updates

2024 Jan Annual Upadte

• Sideways update: Induction to 9 inches for warjacks.
• Changes: RAT increased from 5 to 6.

Notes: Orion is the most range-focused warcaster in the Faction, and we felt that could be better reflected if we increased his RAT stat.

Mk3 to Mk4

Tensor Lattice gains Pistol. Orion gains Dual Attack.

Lore

The vast energies controlled by the Convergence of Cyriss are focused and harnessed by machinery tuned to the alignment of the stars and other celestial bodies, an art perfected by Eminent Configurator Orion. He cares little for the lives of lesser beings. Directing potent blasts of geomantic energy to scythe through his enemies, Orion can calculate an array of trajectories using higher mathematics in fractions of a second.

Trivia

• Released in the Xmas CID (2017.07)
• He has a longer fluff blurb on PP's "extras" page.
• The second model to be added to Convergence since their initial release in 2013.
