Steel Legion Ogryns?
These would be cool, not that we're really short on units right now. :P

Question: what is the Steel Legion equivalent of Cadian Kasrkin? (Stormtroopers)

I think they are just called Stormtroopers or Scions in the Steel Legion.
Kasrkins are basically elite stormtroopers (elite of the elite). Dont know if the Steel Legion has something like that.

Ogryns were originally in the beta, but seem to have been removed in the final version. I'm not sure why?

Maybe they are working on better animations for them, where they in the tabletop version?

Do you know if any video footage of the Ogryns exists? I'd love to see them.

We didn't get the Ogryns approved by GW in time. I'm sure they'll make an appearance at some point :)

I followed the beta thread on Slitherine website during the game's production and there was a lot of criticism of the Ogryn units (there were 2 types) as they were too expensive and not powerful enough. I guess for that reason they decided to leave them out of the release, but will hopefully add them back at a later stage.

I dont know of any video of them and i never saw a screenshot of them myself. Maybe one of the other beta testers has one - but even so, i don't think they would be allowed to post it after signing the confidentiality agreement.

And yes, Ogryns are in the tabletop version.

If there were 2 types the 2nd must have been Bullgryns.

They were left out as the art had not been approved. Same for some other units that I wont mention :)

Actually i think it was just Ogryns and then Veteran Ogryns. Although i quite like the idea of Bullgryns :)

I hope working with GW isn't such a pain that you drop support for this puppy sooner than you might otherwise. I've heard in the past they're a troublesom partner, from some of their B2B partners and a couple of BL writers.

GW are great to work with and we've got lots of plans :)
