Yes, he would like fries with that, thank you.

I take back everything I said about the plastic. Everything was pretty okay (some mold lines, some bubble pits, nothing too major) until I tried assembling my Khador Decimator - one of the shoulder areas cooled at a slower rate than the rest of the model or something and isn't actually any kind of straight line, so there's a giant gap between the torso and part of the shoulder pad. I've gotten it a little better just by shaving from both the shoulder pad and the torso with a razor, but I think I'm going to have to wait until my Vallejo Plastic Putty gets here to actually glue the bastard in - the seam is right in a place where it'd be a pain trying to work putty in after gluing due to the armor plates. Bah.

e: not to come off as a Robot Pervert but anyone got shots of nicely painted warjacks from behind? Surprisingly hard to find reference photos and it's like....are there three little lines running off the side of that circular hatch, or two and a mold line?

Did you specifically need goon jacks? 'cuz PP's gallery has a rotational image for each jack and most of the models.

Thanks for this. Checking it out it looks like both my Cyg light 'jacks have a big ridiculous sprue peg right in the middle of the left thigh that's not supposed to be there. That's going to be such a pain in the rear end to clean up.

Stroke of luck!

The new ADRs are going to also restrict theme forces when they change after Lock & Load, they're all up in the CID forums.

Example: Menoth gets Severius2, Reznik2, Kreoss3, and Durst in either Exemplar Interdiction or Creator's Might.

I'm not a fan of this.

As a not great player who generally gets a game in a week, I'm always confused by these attempts to create these exciting new metas that I also won't ever have the time to figure out. I guess it should reduce the appearance of ADR swaps in SR, which is nice for me. Hope it works out for interested folks though. Also, as a side note, you're never going to lure me into a format by trying to get me to play Morhvana1.

Redeemers on tristan seems a bit wasteful of his amazing armor spell. I wouldn't run him without a light or heavy that carries a shield (indictor is my first pick)

Madelyn is an auto-include with him TBH, and yeah the Redeemer package is okay but it's not as good outside of a knockdown caster.

Just who the hell do you think we are?

Finally got a game in with Orion. List wasn't what I wanted exactly because I need to put another Monitor together, but drat, he's got some really cool poo poo going on. The order of activations was weirding me out one or two turns because of the MAT/RAT thing, but it's very strong.

Also I spent 4 focus and killed 13 Idrians and that felt very good.

I have, and tbh he's the only caster I could see playing out of tier in warmachine in TYOOL 2018.

He wants good deadeye targets, like incindiarii and arcuarii, they are worlds better than reavers. But he also desperately wants a raider which isn't in masters of war. A brute for steady is a must-have.

This is my go-to list for him right now:

War Room Army

Skorne - Jam

- Cyclops Brute - PC: 8

Tyrant Rhadeim - PC: 9
- Tyrant Rhadeim (Continued)
Mortitheurge Willbreaker - PC: 4

Cataphract Incindiarii - Leader & 5 Grunts: 17
Cataphract Arcuarii - Leader & 5 Grunts: 17
Paingiver Beast Handlers - Leader & 3 Grunts: 5
Tyrant Commander & Standard Bearer - Tyrant & Bearer: 0

I built it to complement my eXerxis list which has more beef in it than [REDACTED] and doesn't like to face swarms of high def or weaponmaster infantry. MAT 7 takedown sidestep swordsmen work wonders, even against fennblades if you can stagger them correctly to deal with their charge threat. Deadeye'd Incindarii can light up groups of infantry that use an ARM minifeat, and Arcuarii are the armour breakers. I made it fairly rounded so I wouldn't fear being list locked into it as much. Even the cataphracts become 4+ to hit under your feat.

I use Rhadeim as a border collie, rounding up the enemy's back flank and making them worry about their positioning. Against some opponents, you can tie up 18 points worth of warjack with the catman as they turn around and run to engage him. Plus it helps push their warcaster forward into Jalaam's threat.

Don't forget you can use Artifice offensively as a patch of rough terrain in front of your opponent instead of cover, if the situation calls for it.

The eX list is free (2x agonizer, krea), drake, 2x brute, brozneback, gladiator, tiberion, rhinodon, willbreaker, painbros,

They've dropped various spoilers on podcasts, and there's some Insider posts about them, but not much about their jacks yet. We should know a lot more soon. Crucible Guard is next in the CID cycle after the SR2018 cycle wraps up this week.

I ventured into the depths of the Trollblood FB group, and come back bearing poorly-written tidings:

Round 4 Toronto pandas 5-0
Apsy3 vs gunny
0-0 cp Bot1 caster kill
Belt
Well finally my gunny drop. He had Ghost fleet and Gaspy3 w some slayers. I'll play gunny here see what happens. Okay guys I am sorry game lasted 7 min on clock and I only activated 4 models. Gunny, stone, mistspeaker, GK.
I'll let you think about what happen.
Yep bot 1 killed his caster camping 2 with my GK. Nothing much to say but gk killls casters.

Edit: It's a weird list that I think tilts too hard to supporting the GK, but when it works, it works. All the GK shots are boosted by Guided Fire, he can be sped up or given +2 cold damage by the Northkin Elder, and there's a Mist Speaker to give eyeless sight. Oh, and Gunny has Snipe. If the caster is within ~21" of the GK, that caster's potentially in danger.
