    Who else is ready to hit things with a giant, magical Menofix whilst yelling "Sanctify!"

    On the Warstore it says July 25th. So I'll probably get it in mid August...

    July 25th is the official date. Same day as the Conquest.

    Kind of OT, but is there anywhere to locate the stats for the Sanctifier?

    It's in Wrath.

    In general: Statswise it is a Reckoner for 1 more point. The big club thing is reach and magical and the jack negates incorporeal for enemy models within 5", the other arm is a boring old open fist. The big selling point is that it can collect up to 3 souls from friendly models within 5" and covert them into focus, but the focus is allocated so no going above 3 (or 4 if it is bonded).

    The anti-incorporeal aura is probably the most situational ability ever to grace a jack, especially one that already has a magical melee weapon. Luckily, it's not the big selling point of the jack.

    And even if it is bonded, it cannot ever have more than three souls at once, so you would have to allocate that fourth focus.

    Me, too. I'm still not sure why I want two, but I really just do.

    Warning: Useless ancedote ahead.

    I proxied this in a friendly game with a local Cryx player. His Wraith Engine went incorporeal and my Sanctifier ate it. Mmmm battle engine main course washed down with a glass of Cryx tears!

    Beaumains: I don't own a Reckoner OR Castigator yet, so I'm going to magnetize at least one of the kits I think.

    dchad: Awesome. Make Cryx hate their Battle Engine even more!

    The big selling point for most is that it's a non-character SPD 5 jack with reach. Generating focus due to the enemy having to kill the units you're screening it with is just as good of a selling point.

    If all you are looking for is non-character SPD 5 and Reach, then take a Reckoner and save a point. The Soul collection is far and away the biggest selling point for this guy. The anti-incorporeal aura is just there to put more words on the card.
