fadam posted:What am I missing on Jake's card that has people so excited? How is she any better than our other three melee casters? Field Marshall Sprint means alpha strike for days, +2 MAT/dmg on a stick makes Cygnar infantry hit much harder, feat absolutely massacres infantry spam. Finn with feat gives Cygnar an army munching solo that makes Butcher a little jelly.

Positive Charge on a Jack that kills it's target let's you move the buff to where other models need it. Also mat 9, pow 19, threat 11" Hammersmiths with electroleap, parry and sprint are a thing.

Doesn't like 90% of our good infantry have Electro Leap already though? I guess with Sword Knights it could be cool. EDIT: What sort of battlegroup would you run with here? Quality or quantity?

Storm Lances and Stormguard are the only units with Electroleap on their melee weapons normally. Edit: for the battlegroup, Hammersmiths all day. She fixes their low speed and makes their MAT insane.

You know, if you had put a gun to my head and asked me if Storm Blades had EL on their swords I would have said yes. Whoops.

The pun writes itself. Drake Mcbain in a slightly different pose would be fine. Though seriously, they are nice little show piece models as long as the nonsense does not bother you.

A Trench Buster charging up next to a Trencher and in the Positive Charge aura has a POW16 and a POW 14 Weapon Master attacks at effective MAT 11. Under Jakes' feat he threats 11" and gets 2 Electro Leaps and his Assault shot too. Time will tell if Jakes is competitive, but on paper she looks like a lot of fun. I think she will be pretty boring herself on the table but will make up for that by making her army real fun. It's how I feel about Kraye too and I'm OK with that.

She's also got Stryker 2's defensive stats when she's close enough for escort, which is always fun seeing my opponents reaction to.

I have a sneaking suspicion that she's going to end up being Sturgis tier, but you never know. I hope she turns out awesome because I need a pair for my Haley 3 list and aside from Sloan (who is really fun but I'm afraid is going to get nerfed) and eCaine (who rules but I played way too much of him in MKII) I dislike most of Cygnar's casters

Nemo 1 is super fun and if someone spams Warjacks against you, you can pretty much disrupt their whole army for a turn with his Feat, especially if you bring a Firefly or two to up the damage. 10 or 11 Focus every turn after the first, a threat extension, damage buff, magic/shooting defense buff, 4 Focus per Jack if you want. The only thing not to like is he's real squishy.

I guess I never tried Nemo 1. I tried his two epic versions and really disliked them, and didn't think the Prime version looked cool enough to be worth a shot. I'm looking at his card right now and he doesn't really look like my kind of caster, but I'll give him a shot. I've got a month and a half until the next Steamroller anyway.

Elara is not what I expected, but I'm down. I wonder how many of the promoted juniors on the Hordes side are going to have Scything Touch. Also, no Gastone? I think there hasn't been a single non-Cephalyx merc caster release in the time I've been playing this game.

New Tristan seems like he'd enjoy bastions. +2 ARM and with the solo they heal d3+1 per turn. Give 'em roadblock and go to town.
