We are back to the Fameous Commanders with Marcus Barros, Grand Vizier. This is one of the most fun of the famous commanders, simply because he goes to battle in the iconic PHR Hades. Of course this is a customized version of the Hades, and we will see it with the other Famous Commander releases starting somewhere around February. Tomorrow we will most likely get to see the rest of this model....

Another preview for you today... This time for the PHR. Presenting day 16 of the Advent Calendar.
So who is Marcus Barros.
The first thing he does is take his Hades and make it a Command Unit. Then he changes the weapons layout which is where some of the fun begins. He has a RXs 300 Subjugator Cannon that is E13 Demolisher d3+3 and Devastator 2. Yes that is a gun full of hurt.
Now the interesting part is that on each arm he also has an E10 railgun that fire 2 shots each. While he doesnt have the range of the standard Hades, he rips apart anything that gets close to him.
He also lowers the cost of Odins, Hyperions and Hades Walkers. So yes, more Hades should be in any list with Marcus in it. Imagine him walking side by side with 2-3 more Hades and you have the perfect storm of what Marcus is all about.
The downside of course (if you can call it that) is not being able to take Apollo/ Erebos, Helios/ Angelos, and Athenas.
