Destroyer of Worlds

Indeed: Continuous effects are a really hard counter to any single-wound infantry model. I mostly get it done by positioning: 10'' CMD is huge...

I simply didn't add the AK to the comparison because there's just one unit. As written, the Kayazy aren't any kind of "broad" theme, too. But at...

Or minifeat the BDP, give 3 of them their own cloud (DEF 18, ARM 18) that (9''!) hides the others who stay in SW (DEF 16, ARM 22)? I think there...

Sure. Positioning (Shield Wall with 2 or 3, no SW at all) during a game and probably even more important: list building for multiple list tournaments...

I would expect to be more based on whether or not the models are separately fieldable. Stormwall's pods don't exist without him, but whelps do...

100% agreement. The downside: factions that really play a lot with fire and corrosion run jack/beast heavy, so I'm not sure what the AK should fight?...

So true! :D

Sure. IF comes with SPD -1. Before charging you have to and while advancing in Shield Wall you might want to recast IF. The latter highly depends on...

True. He'd even need a way to look through clouds, so AF wouldn't help that much. Well, this will highly depend on the opposing list and the...

Some other choice advice on drills: When objects revolve at a high speed, even if force is applied, the axis of revolution will always remain in...

Does the Vanquisher have Arcing Fire? They trigger the scatter. Hitting with scattering 3'' AOEs is more about luck than anything else, isn't...

It's not at all untouchable: With the IFK it's "just" getting better ... without being that bad today. But I think it doesn't have so many bad...

:D But seriously: let's find more examples of good counters against the combo. It's always helpful to know whom to avoid. ;)

I know. But they need to hit: if they scatter, they need to scatter in the right direction (forward: 50:50) and not to far (even worse than 50:50). ...

Well, you've bypassed 2 of 3 so far (and with help already). That's not too bad, although it costs a lot of resources, but it'll still leave 1 of 3....

For sure: anything in this game can be disabled or bypassed. If not, we wouldn't like WMH (or wouldn't have switched over). But disabling or...

You're saying the second-worst or worst period jack-heavy Warmachine faction is the second-best or best period beast-heavy Hordes faction, but with...

The issue is that you really want the UA, and you can't have both the UA and Valachev. They'd sure appreciate something like S&P or Butcher1's or...

Well, first of all there is a lot of POW 10 shooting and blasting around currently. It's all this annoying stuff clearing our WGI or Kayazy. ARM 18...

It definitely doesn't help against most charges! DEF 16 with Iron Flesh helps a lot more against it. But what I want to solve with DEF 18 and ARM...

Depends: without Konquest no Stormwall, Galleon or Mammoth. If you ask Khador players whether they'd prefer having Colossals in the game or not,...

I have a Zerkova list using both the Highshields and Thor (marshalling a Rockram), with a bunch more mercs on top to profit from the dwarves' Ranked...

We can clearly see part of a second drill array, so based on every previous Colossal and Gargantuan, that means odds are incredibly likely that those...

Your solution didn't specify target numbers, so I also ignored them. Climbing at full speed strikes me a ludicrously difficult challenge. I've...

I think you can (though honestly, the caster that goes with the Colossal makes a huge difference). The problem I have is that it's a fairly different...

This makes climbing at full speed laughably easy. I suggest multiples of 4, which means you can remove one "chunk" with skill ranks, one with stat...

What about a Butcher1 Heart of Darkness theme force? A logical investment could be another Manhunter then.

That would be sad.
