Glyn Cormier, Illuminated One

File:Mercenary Logo.jpg File:Cygnar Logo.jpg

Template:FH2

An agent of Llaelese descent, Glyn Cormier dedicated her life to the Order of Illumination from an early age and has long since put aside national loyalties. During recent wars, she has sometimes struggled to maintain her objectivity, but she has endeavored to take the lessons of her mentors to heart, keeping her eye focused on the greater threat to humanity. She has fought infernalists since her youth after narrowly evading being recruited into a heretical cult. She has distinguished herself in numerous conflicts against those who practice dark magic.

Thoughts on Glyn Cormier, Illuminated One

Glyn Cormier, Illuminated One in a nutshell

Glyn is a Vigilant solo and she comes with similar abilities but also gains Tough, Dodge and Reposition 3", making her very challenging to lock down. She also buffs Vigilants with True Sight. Lastly, her fancy ranged weapon teleports people around if it damages a target, which is strong (if it goes off).

Combos & Synergies

• Order of Illumination Vigilants, obviously.
• Anything and anyone that can give her a damage up increases the likelihood of Banish going off.
  • These include, among others: Siege1's feat, Caine0's or Ossrum's Fire For effect spell, and Fiona's Curse of Shadows.
• Kraye - He doesn't do much for her, but she and a unit of Vigilants can apply his feat through enemy clouds and don't cost the world.
• Both the Morrowan Archon and Ashlynn1 are veteran leaders to her.
• A Thamarite Archon or two, as well as Zerkova1 can put clouds in front of her and her Vigilants, which they can hide behind an shoot through thanks to True Sight.

Drawbacks & Downsides

• She is expensive, so you'll most likely burn a requisition option on her.
• Her Banish is tied to her damaging (and hitting) the model you want to teleport with an unboostable POW 12 gun. Most hard targets (aka the one you actually want to teleport) aren't phased by that. Range 10 also means she is prone to retaliation after she had her shot at 5 seconds of glory.
• Shield Guards, as well as Mad Visions, completely neuter her main gimmick of banishing things around.
• You cannot banish warcasters, warlocks and infernal masters, so you can't use her to bring them closer for assassinations.

Tricks & Tips

• Always turn around a model you banish. That way other models gain +2 to hit the target and it can't charge you in retaliation.
