''While most Steelhead soldiers are human, the company is quite willing to take on anyone with solid skills willing to fight for coin, and its officers have frequently fought alongside Rhulic mercenaries. A number of Rhulfolk have accepted work with company branches, negotiating for top pay—few soldiers are more disciplined or cool under fire. Gunners are artillery veterans who know how to get the most out of their crews, coordinating fire and ensuring such weapons are quickly positioned to do the most harm.''<br />

=Thoughts on the {{PAGENAME}}=<br />
==={{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===<br />
The Steelhead Gunner is both a Steelhead and Rhulic model, the first Rhulic release in about two and a half years, and can be taken in themes that allow either. His main job is to provide support to Steelhead and Rhulic artillery pieces, making them faster, more accurate, and very dangerous to huge-base models.<br />
<br />
===Combos & Synergies===<br />
* If you have at least two Rhulic/Steelhead weapon crews, you'll want one or more of this guy.<br />
* Siege Tactics is most effective with the [[Steelhead Cannon Crew|Steelhead Cannon]] or [[Horgenhold Artillery Corps|Dwarf Cannon]], giving you 4 dice damage on a direct hit vs Huge bases.<br />
* With [[Fire for Effect]] from [[General Ossrum]] this solo becomes a budget [[Grundback Blaster]].<br />
<br />
===Drawbacks & Downsides===<br />
* Usual squishy support solo problems<br />
** Easily killed by small arms fire<br />
** Points you are spending to enhance your artillery - models already priced at a premium<br />
* Probably the lowest impact support solo in [[Soldiers of Fortune]], can easily be left behind when you already have [[Steelhead Arcanist|Arcanists]], [[Steelhead Ironhead|Ironheads]] and more.<br />
<br />
===Tricks & Tips===<br />
* Utilise the high CMD value, one Gunner can support multiple Artillery pieces spread quite wide.<br />
* Combine Desperate Pace, Bulldoze from your Cavalry and Power Lifter from the Ironhead to engineer some janky Knockdowns with the [[Steelhead Cannon Crew]].<br />
