Hyperion: Done!

So I finally finished her off. I also got in two games against some Circle over the weekend using Rahn's new theme force from No Quarter.

All in all I'm very impressed with the colossal. It was able to tank the middle of the board and take a ton of abuse all while dishing out plenty of it's own the entire time. Oddly enough I only got to shoot with it once, but it spent quite a bit of each game in combat punching away.

Garryth 35

So this is an odd list I've been messing with. It look's like Rahn should be at the helm, but it's actually a lot of fun with Garryth.

Garryth +5
Sphinx 7
Chimera 6
Sentinels+ua 11
Battle Mages 5
x2 Magister 4
x2 Assassins 4
Wishnailer 2
Arcanist 1

Basically, what I did was Mirage on the sentinels and upkeep that for free with Wishnailer.
I would then Arc gallows with arcane secrets into a hard target to have the sentinels crush it. If the model had a high defense, I'd do a boosted shot with the sphinx in order to debuff it.

If there wasn't a good gallows target, the sphinx would debuff a target for the magisters and battle mages to do their thing on it.

Otherwise, it just grinds through threats bit by bit until Garryth has an opening. Usually he is hanging back and using his pistols every turn. If a charge presents itself, or the mages and magisters can drag a caster into charge range Garryth will have his way with them.

All in all, it isn't a super competitive list. But it definitely is fun to use.

Jacks: DONE!

So I've finished off all my warjacks.

The list is:
Discordia
Hypnos
x2 Phoenix
x2 Manticore
x2 Hydra
x2 Banshee
x2 Sphinx
x2 Chimera
x1 Griffon
x1 Gorgon

I still want to get a pair of Demons for the sake of completion.

A couple of more Griffons for E.Vyros

And a pile of Gorgons for mangled metal silliness
