Next year the new book will be released, what do you guys hope for?

I hope we get multiwound Bane unit with best of both (Stealth, Reach, Dark Shroud ect...)
That our warcaster (focus 7) has a way to collect souls from both sides in his command with soul cap of 5 or so and a cool toolbox spell list.
New pirates as a decent ranged unit something we are lacking the moment.
A character unit attachment for the revenant crew.
A character Pistol Wraith that gives gants pistol wraith a sprint variant for ranged attacks.
No more bone-arc-nodes, i want a heavy arc node :P.

Hmm... My wishes would be:
ˇThat Captain-Steelhead is very competitive.
ˇThat he uses a halberd.
ˇThat he's a monster in close combat
ˇSeeing he's a captain, have him on a horse.
ˇA Steelhead jack.
ˇA spell-boosting attachment for mercs.

Bane heavy cavalry and either a character light arc node or any kind of heavy one.

I'd like some kind of cheap, fast moving, armor debuffing solo for eSkarre.

Something that works on Warbeasts and Warjacks, unlike Gorman.

Ok, I know we are cryx but even that is silly. I expect multi wound banes, most likely cav. But to have stealth on cav is something that I don't think we will see. Even though we have occultation I don't think they will just give the cav stealth. Dark shroud? reach? I can see that.

I also hope for some new revenant stuff. Though we already know we are getting those long gunners that are most likely weapon attachments to that unit. But are hopefully a new unit all together. Some new pirate stuff would be cool.

A new heavy jack would also be cool seeing as the ones we have now are pretty unique from each other it would be interesting to see what they come up with next.

I am also interested in a new epic caster. Though this has been discussed in great detail in past threads. My vote is for the Coven. Terminus is too big lol, and Mortenebra needs more time to simmer before we go cranking out lich lord Mortenebra.

Other than that I am open to whatever they throw our way.

Large base Epic Coven caster. All three chicks merged into Egregore. Something like "Egregoven"... I dont feel like combining four names at the moment.

More stuff on the Helldiver or Stalker chassis.

Both of those chassis are very cool, and we could use some more interesting light bonejacks.

Oh, and the thing I've been wishing for since the Helldiver came out.. Burrow + Arcnode.

/sigh we have access to possibly the finest ranged unit in the game. And Steelhead Riflemen are decent at least.

but at any rate,

More epic casters. And my ultimate dream for Cryx, to get an undead version of someone else's caster. Zerkova was always meant to be one of us, she has the lich mentality.

Character/Heavy arcnode would also be sweet.

A February release

(for those who may not have noticed, Cygnar, Khador, Protectorate and Mercs have a release... at least Retribution doesn't either.)

11-19-2010, 08:27 PM
-Multiwound Bane infantry (with Reach please!)
-Bane Cavalry
-Bane Lieutenants! (Koresh and Suneater still haven't been seen)
-Debuff solo
-Hieronymous (Seriously, I want him back permanently. He makes Raiders and Skarre into happy little girls)
-An assassin warcaster (Not gonna' happen I think. I'm expecting her to play nice with undead)
-Bane caster! (and not that kinda' sorta' Bane caster that Goreshade is. I want a caster who IS a Bane!)

I like Banes...

Decade
11-19-2010, 09:15 PM
- More spiderjacks (I know? I know?)
- A few new types of bane would be aces. Heavy cavalry, some solos or a Knight UA
- Some sort of character solo or unit that used to belong to the Menites, but now has unholy powers.
- Something that uses diseases.
- That new wraith engine thing to be awesome enough to warrant me shelling out the cash for it.

11-19-2010, 10:43 PM
Bane Calvary seems unanimous
Id love some multi wound banes... perhaps the size of the Bastions XD I can dreamm
and undead caster from another faction is a great Idea!!
all in all Id say our Ranged units are lacing, and I know we have the Nyss
But they arnt permanant cryx..
Light Spider Jacks!!! Make a theme list!!!
Also Im surprised we dont have something that looks like a scorpion yet :/
(two claws and a tail with spray corrosion)

11-20-2010, 12:47 AM
- Either a Satyxis character unit, C solo or elite unit (ie: 6 models around 5pts) MOAR horny chicks at any rate.

- Medium based banes (not cavalry! Can't be bothered with cavalry).

- A plastic box for mechanithralls (or even just nice resculpts).

- Bane Lieutenant CUAs.

- Heavy Arc node.

- For the new caster(s) to be more exciting than Venethrax.

- Pistol Wraith Csolo.

- For Wrath to not be "Warmachine: Apocalypse".

- Character War Witch Unit.

- Dwarves riding Gunbunnies.

- More Mercs that will work for Cryx that aren't Steelheads.

A Satyxis rifle unit would make the book for me.

11-20-2010, 09:58 AM
What I want for Wrath after Cryxmas:


New Warcaster who does not discriminate when collecting souls, as said above
Spider Jack with :Arc-Node: or "Spell Slave"
6-10 man unit of spellcasters with a damage dealing spell
Bane Heavy Cav with stealth and -2 STR for living in melee

Pseudog
11-20-2010, 10:47 AM
Ah, easy!

1. This new warcaster to be on a small base (we haven't got a small-based undead warcaster yet!)
2. Epic epic warcaster to be eeDeneghra (also, that there will be an epic epic ;___; )
3. Helljack (that's Malice)
4. Bonejack that isn't a chicken (I'm picturing a melee bonejack with two lowish p+s arms with overtake and ability to gain terror if kills an enemy living model ^^)
5. That huge battle engine thingy. Dunno.
6. New unit to be a small based whip-wielder commanding undead medium based mechanithrallesque wolves!
7. WA seems to be revenan rifleman. Don't care about that.
8. Solo... Not sure what I want here, but I have always wanted an undead bard who plays requiem for the lost souls around it but... that isn't maybe that Cryxian theme now, isn't it? ^^'

... and then, I hope there won't be more than 8 releases per faction, maybe 9 or 10 for Retribution.

Craaag
11-20-2010, 11:59 AM
Bane heavy cavalry- this is a must for me or I won't be happy! I hope PP is listening here because everybody wants these even with cavalry being kind of weak compared to what they once were.

Bane knight character solo of some sort, maybe an attachment for bane knights They need more as they should be better than Thralls.....

stalker character jack or arcnode stalker

Another pathfinder jack option for pShade's tier.

Epic Denegrah is pretty dead. Getting torn in half does that to a person.

for me...

1) Heavy Infantry. Banes of course preferred. Not so find of Cavalry, i like soulhunters and the Niche they fit now.
2) Spell slinging infantry unit. Love the WSC...want a 10man unit of them =D
3) Wraith Engine...I've heard these are going to be akin to just a solo with many wounds. Nothing overpowering so I doubt they will be gamebreaking. As we all hear siege engine and immediately compare to WH40k...lets not do that. This is PP...it wont be awful.
4)My dream? Epic Termninus...there's a bigger base size now. This MUST happen.

Cronix
11-20-2010, 02:43 PM

Something that has synergy with Rengrave and eSkarre Black Spot ;).



- A plastic box for mechanithralls (or even just nice resculpts).

I second this..

Snoitpo
11-20-2010, 03:44 PM
For some reason I was picturing a whole new unit that act like super charged Scrap Thralls. Little floating eyes with Construct trait and they approach enemies and blow up like a mobile mine field. Make them speed 4-5 and have some sort of unit leader that builds/deploys more on the battlefield, up to a certain limit of course. I imagine that this unit leader would not be replaceable if destroyed.

I want bone chickens. I want a little Voodoo priest that stands back and herds a bunch of Flying bone chickens (not jacks, real chickens) into battle. Flying over the front lines to peck away at any low armor infantry, solo, or high value target. Imagine the enemy s*** their pants when they see the feathers coming towards them at speed 7 CMA P+S 10 attacks. I can see it now. POW 19 chicken assassination run. Would have to be ridiculously low MAT.

Undead Trenchers: slower versions of Cygnar trenchers. Maybe loose Dig in but keep the RAT.

I said that would be an awesome idea a looong time ago to my friends. we are the only faction who could successfully pull that off.

TheIconJBG
11-20-2010, 05:04 PM
Pistol Wraith character
Black Orgun UA
zombie models obviously from other factions like McThralls with Trencher smoke
more twisted mercs

Weaver95
11-20-2010, 06:49 PM
I dunno. I catch a LOT of crap from the locals for playing with an e-gaspy list that runs a full unit of bane thralls with unit attachment. apparently it's 'overpowered' and i'm a 'bad player' for fielding bane units with Tarterus.

TheIconJBG

AshenFang
11-20-2010, 07:27 PM
Heavy Bane Cav like others have mentioned
If there's a second Warlock, would love for a Pistol wraith one.
CA, UA, WA for Bile Thralls, and Bane Knights.
Would love a CA, UA, Solo and Jack for McThralls, like Cygnar's trenchers!

Playing eLich in casual games actually does make you a bad person. He's really only acceptable in tournament formats. Same goes for both Deneghras, and probably eSkarre though there's some room for negotiation there, she's just as good but not as soul crushing. It's just sort of the social agreement, what we do in return for not ever seeing pHaley in a casual game.

Really? pDenny? I never realized the lil' old battle box caster was "soul crushing" :P. I've been using her almost exclusively as I learn the game, and while she's a good deal of fun, I haven't really tapped into any abusive mechanics that leave others grumbling.

Temoinlanuit
11-20-2010, 11:26 PM
People are OK with Crippling Grasp?.. and Scourge?.. and her feat?

Your job, sir, is to leave them grumbling.

Decade
11-21-2010, 06:02 AM
Seconded. The last time I ran Denny in a tournament, the amount of hate I got was pretty high. I you haven't made your opponent hate your guts and want you to die painfully after a game against Denny, you're doing it wrong.

CG on a key unit means they can't run, charge, use special attacks, and are much easier to hit / hurt with just about anything. Get it on early, and they haven't got a way to take it off, they're boned. Stack it with her feat, and there's not much that can survive. Scourge automatically knocks down anything under the template. High def unit making you miserable, run an arc-node up to it and scourge it. Then, even mechanithralls can hit it. High-armor, single wound infantry bothering you. Hit em with a venom. The corrosion is statistically going to kill 2/3 of em next round. Parasite their jack, and suddenly those 10 combo strikes from your mechanithralls go from annoying to lethal.

Ok ok ok time to rewind. I just picked myself off the floor and got back into my seat after reading this. There is NO unacceptable caster to play for any faction in friendly games. If you are playing a new person or someone that can't deal with your cryx I can see not taking eAsphyxious and friends. BTW I just lost the final round of a tournament to a pMorgal list and we had a great game! Obviously play for fun that is important that both people are having fun. But I can tell you in my local area there are several people that can deal with eAsphyxious and the others and can deal well. I have friends that I play that take tournament lists out against me and we have great games. The point is to get used to playing against those lists so you know A) how to fight against things like that when you come across it and B) how to use your own list when it comes time.

Long story short play whatever you want. Of course don't play those silly lists against new comers but I would like to think we all have competent players in our meta and hopefully they are throwing lists like that at us too! It makes us better players and a challenge is always nice. I am actually disappointed to see that people actually think this way.

My friend plays searforge and cannot deal with most cryx lists so if I play him I usually take one of my other armies like trolls. So all in all just know when you can take those lists out. There are two people in my meta so far that I would not take eAsphyxious or pDeneghra against. Everyone else I play are pretty solid players with versatile lists. And though I hate to do this I feel I have no other choice....PAGE 5

Temoinlanuit
11-21-2010, 08:20 AM
To be fair, if you don't take eGaspy in friendly games, your meta won't be prepared against him when they travel for tournament games.

It's a disservice to your fellow players, unless you're all casual players.. in which case it doesn't really matter either way.

Boredom, of course, is another question altogether..

Syfer22
11-21-2010, 11:14 AM
I'd like some kind of Bane shooting option -- After all the Exemplars have Errants, right? I'm not a big fan of pirates.

... And just because it's a wishlist, I'd like a Banejack.

Kuwanger23
11-21-2010, 11:45 AM
Syfer comes out of no where with the curve ball units. I like it lol. But I do think a Bane jack could be a cool idea. I certainly would look cool. Move 5, def 12 or 13 arm 18. Maybe a buckler on it. Some sort of reach weapon and maybe one kind of bane ability like dark shroud.

Azhdeen
11-21-2010, 02:48 PM
Suicide Chickens, fast bonejacks with corrosive charges strapped to their chassis, stealth would be nice as well.

More Trolls to go with Slaughterborn

Ogrun character solo

Hell and Bone jacks with a decent ranged attacks

Eiryss-type solo

eMorty would be nice too.

more Cephalyx units or a solo.

Craaag
11-21-2010, 06:29 PM

Snoitpo
11-21-2010, 08:02 PM
Bane Artillery - Low POW ranged attack that leaves a cloud of Dark Shroud that Banes can see through.

11-21-2010, 09:25 PM
Banejack ftw. \o/

And I tooooootally second the Black Ogrun re-sculpt. They look like pirate gorillas.

Cronix
11-22-2010, 03:05 AM
A Bane-Helljack would be great.

A Cryxian equivalent of the commadore cannon, more pirates, and a character arcnode - oh and of course a pony.

For Pony!

Craaag
11-22-2010, 04:19 AM
I think anytime a thread like this comes up I'm just going to put Black Ogrun resculpt and anything Bane....

Sobek
11-22-2010, 06:57 AM
Hmm....

1) An Incorporeal Unit that eDenny could use in her Tier list that makes more sense fluff-wise than the Ghost Raiders
2) A 3 point bone chicken without an arch node (Something quick like a Deathripper, not slow like the Helldiver)
3) A new heavy on the spider jack chassis
4) Multiwound medium based Banes (although I think we're as likely to see these as we are to see a new cavalry unit)

Venethrax
11-22-2010, 02:21 PM
Bane Sorcerer
-entropy ring: range 12 pow 10 enemy models within 2" of a model hit by entropy ring suffer the entropic effect (-1 arm, -1def) for one turn.
-void blast: range 14 pow 12
-soul retrieval: enemy models boxed by this model awards this model a soul token.
-soulstorm

FA- 2
Pc -5 -leader/5 grunts

Essentially a ranged bane spell casting unit with a debuff to stack with parasite and/or dark shroud in addition to soul storm (protection against single wound Infantry). Not overpowered not mediocre and definitely fun to play.

Kuwanger23
11-22-2010, 08:09 PM
Hell diver is deceptively fast. Death ripper has a threat range of 10.5 inches if he charges. The Hell diver has about a 12" threat and 360.

Yeah, The Helldiver offers a ton of mobility as long as you are burrowing it, and there's no reason not to, as it keeps it safe as well. Look at it this way:

Previous turn you burrow, placing the marker in front of you, this gives you .75" extra forward positioning (As your effective front edge is now the marker's front edge.)
This turn you pop up with the back edge of your base just within 3" of the marker, this places you 4.5" in front of the marker (3"+your base size). That's 5.25" ahead of where you would have stopped the previous turn, and now you get to charge another 8".
In addition to whatever extra forward movement you can get, it's easy to have a charge lane, placing your model out to a side of the model that they haven't blocked, if there's anything to complain about when it comes to the Helldiver, it's not lack of mobility, heh.

High Executioner Gorak
11-23-2010, 01:29 PM
for me it's more banes,bane knight UA and or character UA. Baneknight Cav, oh and our giant machine to be soul eating killing machine.

11-23-2010, 03:10 PM
you Know what I want, a shambling, monster undead unit, or solo, that eats the dead, feats on their flesh. maybe he has body snatcher, and can use the corpse tokens he gets like focus: extra attacks, boost to damage, boost to hit. and regenerate with them. 10 wounds. abomination. High P+S, middling MAT...

I already have my Satyxis solo, which I am throughly pleased with, and Gerlak, who i wanted since apotheosis...

so, really, my list is short. something from left field, something off the wall. I dont want Banes of any sort... more banes has been the solution since MK I, it was boring then, and its boring now. the UA was pretty sweet, though, I will say.

Our super model needs to be a ghost/zombie ship the Atramentous:Terror:
Incoporal
Ghostshot and lots of them
Benifit from rengraves aiming bonus
Fly
And it should create revenant pirates when it kills living warrior models

NO?

Would be badass

We've already seen the Cryx battle engine.

Maou_Mint
11-23-2010, 09:58 PM
More Cephalix:
Small based Cephalix Machines
non-human Drudges
Cephalix slaved warbeasts or warjacks
A Cephalix Warcaster/Warlock

Since their seems to be a wraith theme going on:
Wraith versions of other factions units/solos (I want trophy figs of all the dead enemies Cryxians have slain, by gum!):
-Wraith Gun mages
-Wraith Journeymen
-Wraith Bears (Actually I'd settle for zombie bears. And no, I don't mean the "Great Bears" I want actual "bear" bears...with undead Khadorans riding them. It's more entertaining.)
-Wraith Mage Hunters for Goreshade, it's time to add insult to injury

Plastic-jack kit for the Harrower/Leviathan with extra options for new four-legged jacks.

khylis
11-23-2010, 10:05 PM

Yeah, but a ghost ship does sound like an awesome idea for another battle engine - anyways, you can't go wrong with more pirates =P

I would like to see:
the two character bane thralls be solos (forgot their names),
a pistol wraith character solo (as has been said), a bane knight unit attachment,
a new unit of medium based banes,
some type of heavy cavalry that is an even beefier version of soul hunters,
black ogrun UA,
a new heavy spider jack,
a new light jack that teleports!

Lamoron
11-24-2010, 11:26 AM
a new light jack that teleports! I'll buy that for a dollar!


I dont want Banes of any sort... more banes has been the solution since MK I, it was boring then, and its boring now. One day I would like to open the army list section here, and not see Banes.

I only really have one wish... something to remove continuous effects, because fire does indeed purify my troops.

11-24-2010, 11:38 AM
Why all the Bane hate? I can understand not liking Bane spam, but what's wrong with taking BLT + a unit of Banes? Personally, I'm more bothered by the 14" + charging that units can get (I'm looking at you Satyxis Raiders & Fennblades)

Undead Saboteur
11-24-2010, 12:35 PM
Maybe each faction will get a new super heavy jack!
Maybe we will see some type of solo that is an undead necrotic wraithlike ooze that has acidic attacks and causes much corrosion! When it dies it blows up and leaves an acidic aoe for one round!

Why all the Bane hate? I can understand not liking Bane spam, but what's wrong with taking BLT + a unit of Banes? Being a very new player I can't see anything wrong with them, and that's the problem in my case. With the exception of Monty and Tier lists, they have a home in every list. Put down BT + UA + Tarts'R'Us, point them in the general direction, and they will completely wreck your opponents face. They don't really require support, they can wreck anything from skirmishers to the Avatar, and they don't have any "fancy" tricks but just walk forward and kill. I don't hate Banes, and I plan of fielding some Knights at some point, but before ever playing a game, I got tired of opening the lists on this forum and seeing BLT+BT+UA again and again and again :D

Bane Lord Tartarus and the bane thrall unit attatchement undeniably ARE THE SUPPORT, and that's the point of them. With good reason too at the cost of 12 points to make the entire package work at Minimum efficiency.

I agree and hope that for Skarre it's a spider character jack!

Have to second:
More Cephalyx options. They seem really underdeveloped thematically and I can't seem to find a home for them in any lists I make.
Heavy Bane Cavalry. Any heavy cav would be welcome, but banes on bane horses wielding bane lances and whispering bane warcries would be choice.
Blighted UA. More blighted ogrun / trollkin would be great, too; another interesting, underdeveloped Cryx theme. Bloodgorgers are good enough, esp. with Gerlak, that they don't need a UA, but I'd welcome more trollkin any day. Still, what I'd really like to see is a Black Ogrun Boarding Party UA. Maybe a single large-based guy with Drag and CRAT? (Too Reaper-y?)

Ruleswise, I want:
A mid-range bonejack, sort of a miniature Harrower or Leviathan -- something with a pair of PS 12 attacks, an 8-inch cannon with a 3- or 4-inch aoe, pathfinder. Something that can lay down pie plates and mix it up in melee a little bit without having to go all in on a 9-/10-point 'jack. (Don't get me wrong, both crab-jacks are worth every point. I'd just like a light option.)

From a fluff perspective, I want:
More Iosan-ish units. pGoreshade's fluff suggests that the void -- the source of the banes -- may be connected to the soulless ones. Getting some neat-o recycled warrior souls that build on Goreshade's unusual denial package would be Cryxian without eliciting a reflexive WAT MOAR BANES response.
More Orgoth-inspired units. I know we got the Sirens and Deneghra, but that's a far cry from Gaspy cracking open ancient soul devices to become a god. The Orgoth were some crazy-powerful dudes, right? Well, let's get crackin' on some world-smashing Orgoth magic, then.

I second the Orgoth, having had Sirens in all my army lists so far; they are my go to girls for messing up the enemy in a sexy way of course ;)

Bane Cav for sure.

A black ogrun UA....a big tug-o-war anchor guy that lets the unit drag large based targets and has a harpoon gun of his own allowing them to make two 3-ogrun CRA's. And while I am wishing, hunter, and gas masks for immunity corrosion for venethrax tier lists.

A pistol wraith character solo to boost other pistol wraiths would be awesome as well.

A Character 'jack for Skarre named the Kraken :D Now, that is something I've been wanting since the Nightmare came out.

EDIT: Oh, and a character PW with Snap shot for the epic Snap Shot-Black Spot combo I've been dreaming about for so long <3.14

I want:

Either a WA or UA for the Soulhunters. Wrathe doesn't count... still sweet though.
Medium based Banes... been saying this for years.
Character Skarlock
Resculpt of the McThralls... but this isn't a "book" thing.
Crazy Uber character Necrotech... Maybe the dude that invented Seethers. Medium (or large) base, 10 life and a melee monster. 'Jacks boosty goodness to boot.
Another Crabjack (either 2 sweet melee wpns, or 2 sweet ranged wpns)
An Orgoth Incubi unit that does super sweet (insert cool thing) and can cast uber spell(insert spell here). Kind of a yin to the Sirens yang.

And finally, Epic Tartarus!!1one!!1! This NEEDS to happen!! (I think I just pooped a little...)

I'd like to see other classical undead variants. I.e. more wraiths, specters, demons etc. We are th nightmare empire, why is our core force made up of women and undead pirates in tacky outfits?

I whole heartedly agree that we should see some undead versions of other factions stuff, not to the point that we copy them, but I like that Alexia's risen have Cygnar and Khador outfits.

I'd also like to see somthing from the Church of Torruk, like our version of holy zealots or dread priests etc.

Moar banes! Bane cav banes with med bases banes with laser beams. They're my favorite part of the game and along with the mech t's seem the most appropriate type of undead. Though I am biased against silly hat wearing undead pirates.

I'd also like to see a new crab jack, something either 100% dedicated to shooting or melee not another in between.

How about an undead beast? A warpwolf skeleton that consumes souls and is driven by hate? Vampires?

My list goes on and on. Which is why our faction is the best. We're not limited to by our mortality, morals, race or even the realm of possibility. We're the stuff of nightmares so if we can dream it then it is possible.

Whereas sissy Cygnar get to only play with pea shooters and static electricity.

Cryx rule!

I really think that this is coming, and I really welcome it. with the blurb in the forces book, and a little tidbit that Seacat extrapolated on a few days ago, I'm really hoping to see some cool apostate knights or evil priests. It would be a radical change in playstyle to have a caster that is buff-heavy. Thats just my call, and I'd love it to come to fruition.

I would like to see a bile jack (corruptor doesnt count. by Toruk, what a failure!) or a UA or WA for bile thralls.

A spellcasting unit that has a spell that grants Incorporeal (would also help with getting rid of that pesky fire!) and also something that does damage too. Maybe something like stygian abyss with a cool effect that isn't about the damage

Heavy jack w/ arcnode

Bane cavalry would be absolutely wicked. And i mean that both in the sense of 'awesome' and 'evil'

better pirates plz. maybe some free-for-all UA that connects to any piratey unit, like the soulless escorts for Retribution

I really liked the idea of a badass ogrun CUA with a large base that can drag big stuff around

and Riot!

I'd like to continue to see the existing themes expanded upon:

Non-character FA:2 bane solos (cavalry solos?)
Character Satyxis solo or Character Raider WA - with two whips.
Warwitch unit with a "magic missile" type spell. Like the Battle Mages or Hex Hunters.
Black Ogrun UA or solo.
Non-character Revenant solo.

As far as warjacks go, I'd really love to see a Crab-jack with two Helldrivers. Cryx Scythean? Yes, please.


Stuff out of left field is always good too.
A "keening spirit" with no attacks but incorporeal + a passive de-buff aura (like the Deathwalker) would be cool.
A mercenary privateer jack marshall who will actually work for Cryx.

I too would like to see a character, either warcaster or solo, become an epic undead version under the control of Cryx. I doubt this will ever happen because whatever faction we take a character from will have a cow. The only way I can see it working is if the original model is a mercenary and the epic version is a Cryx ally.

I'm a fan of warwitches, and would like to see a warwitch unit. I'd also like to see another living warwitch 'caster, but that's a matter for another book.

While not something new that I'd like in the new book, I'd like plastic mechanithralls so I can field more without breaking the bank, and a re-sculpt of eDenny that doesn't look so frumpy.

I also want warcaster from a faction other than Cryx to die. The way it is now, where characters can't die unless they can be brought back, makes the meta story feel kind of stagnant. I really wanted Stryker to kill Feora at the end of Legends, but he wussed out and went back to being a white knight instead.

I agree. Since Epic versions effectively replace the regular versions in the story line (Haley is not going to grow her arm back and become pHaley again), it's okay to kill casters and let players play them when they want and in alternate story lines where it didn't happen. I think it would help shake things up a bit if the fluff for a game where a caster dies almost every time you play had a little more fatality in the fiction. Right now there's a huge disconnect between the lethality to casters on the table top and their Mary-Sue like protagonist protection in the fiction.

They did have a Black Troll in the first Monsternomicon that might fit with Cryx. It IS an 'undead abomination', after all.

Ya know, something like a cross between your overseer's soul transfer and an immobile sentry stone would be cool. Collects and disperses souls within its command (6"). Hell, Cryx has enough Orgoth and Circle magics to totally have this.

- a heavy arcnode, and/or spider jack devoted to melee OR range
- Cephalyx. . . anything. really. anything to help out those guys.
- Epic Darragh Wrathe as a 'caster. (i know, some wishes will never come true)

while I'm hallucinating: LICH LORD Mortenebra to replace Morbus.

Character Crabjack would be awesome.

eMorty (I love her so much, she is ripe for teh awesomes, large base, Withershadow style abilities would be grand)

Elite banes, massive dudes with pointy sticks. 8 wounds, heal d6 on enemy kill (maybe like Soul Taker/Soul Render). Almost like inverse Bastions.

Bane Knight U/A

Bane Cavalry

For an assassination 'caster Malathrax would be freaking awesome!

We're getting a Revenant Crew rifleman. Now that I'm playing Mercs more, I understand why Cryx does not need a ranged unit. Try using Nyss Hunters... bloody amazing. Plus the Harrower and Leviathan are pretty good shooters in their own right. I'd say Cryx is just fine in terms of ranged capabilities (something I only realized after investing in Mercs).

If it was a Bane unit similar to warspears, I'd consider it though. Assault is a fun ability :p

Cephalix slaved warbeasts or warjacks

I won a game off the back of a Leviathan in B2B with with Morty (interface) the other night, put lots of large holes in the enemy 'caster. We have plenty of fire support. It is just a matter of seeing it as _support_ rather than our primary assault. Bloat Thralls are excellent walking artillery. Bile Thralls are awesome crowd control. Leviathan and Harrower both do well with ranged kills. Leviathan is a straight out ranged kill and Harrower is sneaky about it.

Soften things up with ranged then smash them with your claws :)

Tartarus' ability that makes Banes does specifically mention 'small-based Bane units' so it seems pretty likely to me that we might see some bigger Banes.

What would I like?

Victoria Haley's head. On my desk. Her soul imprisoned forever in a tiny little cage to be tortured and played with throughout eternity. Her hearing endless mockery of her pathetic failure and death, and of the destruction of her beloved homeland.

No, I'm not bitter. Why do you ask?
