Hey I was wondering how this special character is, and whether if it is legal to play him as just a regular character like a crisis commander or something along those lines. (Mainly asking this because i really like the model)
Firstly shadowsun is female, secondly, it would need a little bit of work, or a nice oppenent to be allowed as a crisis suit. She's smaller and from memory on a smaller base, so its not tournie legal. Mount her on a crisis base, with either some conversion to make her taller (and more suitably armed), or just a scenic base that puts her at the right height. Then i'm sure noone would have any quibbles, as long as you point out its not shadowsun.
They're are also some pretty cool conversions around for making crisis suits look for like the XV22, such as extended FB's, incorporating stealth suits into the armour.

I don't think this is the case... Shadowsun comes with the small base, and the model is the size that it is. It is a GW model. She is clearly listed in the current codex, and she is clearly a battlesuit commander and so fulfills the 1+ HQ requirement.
I'm not sure why you think it is otherwise - what is your reasoning as to why it would not be tourny legal and would require an opponent's permission?
I think kwike's asking if he could call Shadowsun a regular commander in a crisis suit. Spartan Command061 is saying that the size of the modle may be too small to count as a crisis suit. I think that this is in refrence to a rule a heard or read that the base given by GW is that smalles legel base that can be used.
Hehe thanks for the replies everyone. I was asking if she could be played as a regular HQ instead of a special character, and I was also wondering if she was a good special character and if anyone likes to use her.
