Wells posted:I've been thinking a lot about the kraken lately because I really want to work it into a good list, and I'm coming to the (as of yet untested) conclusion that Skarre2 is probably the only really effective caster you can pair one with. The combined quality/quantity of most colossal's attacks is generally not that much better then a regular warjack despite the price being easily more than twice an average heavy. You're probably going to kill whatever you get the alpha off on with it (if you even get the alpha), but you're almost certainly going to lose the kraken next turn, and it's probably not likely that you've gotten an equitable trade at that point. Because of that, I don't think casters buffing the Kraken's alpha potential are really all that great, and unfortunately most of our defensive jack buffs really aren't going to help a tremendous amount either. Spectral Steel, Hellwrought, Death Ward, or even unyielding on their own aren't going to stop a P+S23 wrassler or mulg from kramering into the kraken and wrecking it. A list that can really crack ARM is probably even going to be able to deal with Skarre1's feat, which is our best ARM buff. OTOH Skarre2's feat makes the Kraken unchargable and very hard to hit at DEF15. Black Spot is a MAT/RAT fixer, and even better it fixes the relatively low volume of attacks the kraken puts out for it's points. I'm not sure if you can realistically drive a kraken up to an infantry unit without it getting shot off the table, but I suppose you could get it close enough to use the secondary guns, kill some stuff at effective RAT 7, and kill some more stuff with Black Spot attacks, then feat and do it again (or charge) next turn and by then hopefully have made your points back. The Kraken is really good in alot of places, a speed buff is what it loves. I used to run it with shade3 a lot and it's usually get at least one kill top of 1 if I go 2nd.

Hra Mormo posted:To be fair if I'd bought 30 Bane Knights and 30 Mechanithralls in Mk2 I'd probably be salty as well. And that's not an unreasonable scenario for a Mk2 Cryx player. I'm alittle bit salty about the 10 bane knights I bought, only because I spent $80 and don't really ever think about putting them in lists anymore. The Cryx forums are whiny as poo poo, but I personally think all 3 of the bane units and the solo are overcosted by just a tiny bit. Oh and the slayer chassis.

Wells posted:I wonder if the full revenent package with skarre2 could be good. with black spot, rengrave, and the two cannon crews, you can make 6 new revenants a turn from 12" away pretty reliably (rengrave at effective RAT 8 and the cannon at effective RAT 7 with boosted hit rolls). the other side of the coin is that you have to own rengrave, the revenent crew, and two cannons Death ward for the Bloodgorgers mostly, oh and black spot too. Also soul strike or whatever her spell is. The way it currently stands if I kill a gorger whos engaged with death ward on its a boosted pow 20 to something within 4 that auto hits... I just can't pass the tough roll.

They lost an 1" on melee, and their curse doesn't help them with speed anymore, on a charge its only really useful for the impact attacks. They just got way worse then they used to be is all, and compared to the soul hunters, I dunno why I'd take em.

I haven't used them much) Bane Warriors (I used them a lot, they very rarely make it where they need to be, UA is overcosted) Black ogrun (They look way to easy to remove) Cephalyx overlords (I think they are good, letting drudges hit better and 3 influences is great) Shirke & Scavenger ( Both look good, just haven't used em) Drudges (I've used them once so far, higher arm and tough keeps them somewhat alive, if you want hoards of poo poo use em)

S.J. posted:Bane Knights are still good. They lost half a point of expected damage on the charge and can't mulch everything with vengeance anymore, but they're also cheaper than they used to be and still murder one wound infantry with no effort as long as they hit. Slaughterborn I think is really good if you use him with the unit but don't bother otherwise. The game I ran slaugtherborn, he got stuck in traffic and never could get the fighting bloodgorgers in command. I had blackspot on the unit they where fighting anyways so they didn't even need him. I just wish he wasn't more costly them Finn who's way friggin' better.

lokipunk posted:One question though, what is it that lylyth3 does that supports a gun line that denny2 doesnt? I get why denny2 is maligned but I look at l3 and can't really figure out what she brings other than a huge base to shoot at. She can move up 12", feat, fire 12" more up with 3 shots at rat 8 that freeze then she can move back 5. Then the rest of her army fires ranged poo poo that also freezes. Denny can't get as far up and doesn't get to fire 3 shots herself, Cryx also doesn't really have much of anything beyond ranged 12 and most of it isn't high pow. That's what I'm getting from looking at the card currently, although I've never seen it in practice.

susan posted:Seriously though, most Heavies are going to be able to get a flat +2 MAT vs any Charge Target now, since a single free strike is either wholly unable or extremely unlikely to take out a relevant system during a charge attack. Especially your higher base ARM Jacks like Khador and Menoth. What would it take to cripple a Juggernaut's Cortex in a single free strike? ARM 20, 12 boxes needed to cripple the Cortex, which means a POW 14 needs to roll triple 6's on exactly Column 4 to do it. Yeah, I'll take those odds to get +2 on your Warcaster. *Looks at Slayers.
