Hey I remember reading some goons in Columbus and playing with Akron goons. Are there any warmagoons in Akron? My friend and I are debating about starting to go to JAC Games and it might be nice to meet some internet strangers

Yeah i caught that too. Idiot clearly didn't actually think about how it really works.

In other news, i need one of you to convince me NOT to buy a second unit of mist riders. They're so goaty!

How much fragile backline support do you expect there to be?
I could maybe see 2 min units, but that hardly seems worth the cost.

And if you don't make use of their speed, Circle is full of other infantry shredders that are way cheaper, albeit less goaty.

Earlier I had 5 goats kill like a dozen drudges between impacts, charges, and battle wizards. And that was with some toughs going off.

I would never doubt the ability of the goats and attached druids to tear through single wound infantry. But that's a 20 point unit doing a job that, in Circle, can be handled by far cheaper options.
Two full units of goats is almost half your non-support points going into low-POW lightning attacks. The goats can get to stuff in the back that Night Witches etc. couldn't reach, but even if there are enough targets for two units of goats in the back, would you ever really be able to commit them to that?

I think we can reach a compromise here by agreeing that PP needs to release a Mist Rider solo asap.

There was...like, two merc starter boxes back in Mk1, and they got dropped for Mk2. With all the different subfactions, it's unlikely that we'll see any attempt to have starter boxes for mercs or minions.

If you like the idea of gators, pick a warlock or two that especially catch your eye and ask the thread for advice on what goes well with them.

Have the all in one, another rhyas, lylyth, a seraph, a d a shredder.

All in one is saeryn, Angelious, neraph, magnetiZed carnivean, deathstalker, striders, and 2 Shepard's

That's sort of my feeling. I'm gonna wait for the 5% rebalance and throw fix (maybe posse buff?) and then buy in. I still need another unit of banes and raiders and gunslingers for Cryx so it will be awhile.

What are the chances that Ret gets dicked by the upcoming errata? I want to buy into a non-Cygnar faction finally, but I don't want to paint and assemble something just to have it turn lovely in a few months.

I think Ret is just in an overall good place. I'd be surprised if PP were focusing on them for the upcoming errata. I guess there's a certain possibility that they nerf the Arcanist, which would be bad. Seems unlikely, but who knows?

But I wouldn't pick up a new faction before the errata are out regardless.

They aren't revisiting entire factions other than Skorne. I mean Sentinels might get looked at but other than that I wouldn't be worried about it unless there's something drastic I'm forgetting, and even then, I wouldn't expect Ret to get touched.

I can see sentinels getting a different mini feat than Iron Zeal. Ret just has too many arm stacking options with them, in my opinion!

Anyways, played my first game with Morv2 today, put myself down to 1 health, twice. Feels gud.

Played this

http://conflictchamber.com/#b81bcG5l5l4Bgn554S5sfB5fc95g

Circle Army - 75 / 75 points

(Morvahna 2) Morvahna the Dawnshadow [+27]
- Warpwolf Stalker [19]
- Warpwolf Stalker [19]
- Gorax Rager [7]
Druid Mist Riders (min) [12]
Tharn Wolf Riders (min) [11]
Reeves of Orboros (max) [16]
- Reeve of Orboros Chieftain & Standard [4]
Lynus Wesselbaum & Edrea Lloryrr [5]
Shifting Stones [3]
Gallows Grove [2]
Blackclad Wayfarer [4]


Did pretty well. Snuck out a win against Reznik2, just barely! Trying to figure out if double min cav is the way to go for versatility or if I want a max unit of one or the other for a more reliable feat. I lost all the mist riders in a single turn, but was able to bring back two of my wolf riders.

Those are the exact ones i buy, from the same retailer! I suggest the 3mm ones. They have fantastic pull strength.
