« on: June 10, 2011, 02:43:02 PM »
Scaverus is insanely good. His spell list and feat are bonkers.

From Focus and Fury:

Scavy

He has thresher.

Spell List

death ward
excarnate
feast of worms (feast aoe 4" p=12 in aoe -2 arm upkeep)
ghost walk
icy grip
telekinesis.
7 Focus

Scavy's feat is in cntrl area faction models get boosted mag. attk rolls. reduce scavvy spells cost by 1 and increase enemy animi and spell cost by 1 last for 1 rnd.


Even though I like Harkevich a lot, I'm jealous.

I would never opt to buy anything before I got my new caster.  Personally I like owning all the casters for my faction and I certainly wouldn't spend more than twice as much money for it.  Rather have the caster and character jack for the same price.  That's just me.

I don't want to live on this planet any longer.

Seriously that's on my list now!  Is Erebus spoiled yet?  He's who I really have high hopes of.  I can justify not getting him only because I need to get better with eDenny first.  And that's a terrible excuse. 

EREBUS SPOILERZ NOW PLZ!

Erebus made me cry tears of joy. Poltergeist and overtake, oh and combo strike. Thyra scares the fuck out of me!  What the he'll!  I'd say gallant was a bit of a let down.

Cryx still firmly holds the one spot so I'm pretty happy, and thyra makes me wana try menoth again.  I also love the fluffiness of menoth's engine.  It nails perfectly the ideal of the faction, and is pretty good.

I'm a fan of the Cryx jack marshal. It looks pretty good.

If Gallant is MAT 8 with a POW 17/18 magical sword that has reach for under 10pts I won't feel let down at all.

The Kayazy Eliminators are what's confusing me. Stealth, Acrobatics, Duelist, Gang, Side Step, and Combo Strike... out of the box they're superior to the Kayazy Assassins w/ UA based on the listed abilities. We'll have to see how the stats, point cost and unit size shake out. Still though...

Oh, and the Minuteman light jack and Runewood for Cygnar? WOW! I'll be buying him and at least two of the jacks the day they drop.

I was pretty disappointed to see how little was in Wrath at first, but it seems that it's because PP trimmed the fat, didn't rush things, and everyone is getting good stuff.

I think the character jacks are very solid but just short of expectations pre-spoilers. Don't think that I mean they are bad, if I played cygnar or mercs I'd take gallant, and I plan on Erebus sooner or later.  The real step up in power level was with warcasters.  All of them are crazy as he'll, especially Blaise, thyra, and scavvy.  Harkevich I didn't look at much since Thursday I'll be forced to play him anyways, and ossyan, is situationally brutal, otherwise, solid.

Let's talk about my iron lich overseer and how I love him so.

The only real situation where he isn't brutal is if there's tons of stealth or clouds effects, but that's literally every Ret caster. Quicken alone on just about any unit in the army is stupidly good. SPD 7 DEF 14 Sentinels? Sign me up!

Sure Scavy is a bit bonkers, but every caster so far seems very strong. Still need to see stats though.

That's cool, but I didn't just mean his stats. I know Ossyan's, his and Damiano's. Haven't heard anything Constance, Harkevich or Thyra. Do any of you guys know?
