Eyriss equivalent??

[mcpolle]

Do we have any kind of access to an Eyriss, something that can get rid of upkeep spells on enemy models, because Arcane shield is very annoying:-)

Only the Thrullg, which needs to get into melee to do anything, and consequently is not seen in many lists. Zaal's spell 'Hex Blast' does it too.

If you're dead-set keen on stripping enemy upkeeps, maybe you need to start playing Zaal for a while? His playstyle can be a bit boring (sacrifice some infantry, Last Stand, feat), but I think he's one of our more competitive warlocks.

[mcpolle]

Cheers for that, will look into him

Mordikaar has banishing ward if that helps.

[Cronix]

Banishing Ward is only for friendly models, Thrullg and Zaal Hex Blast will help against upkeeps.

But why does it AS annoy you? Skorne has enough melee power to supass it. Swordmen/UA, assassin dudes, weaponmasters, beasthandlers + heavy warbeasts beginning with a T will wreck Cygnar warjacks with AS.

Banishing ward doesn't strip enemy upkeeps on enemy models though which is what he is after( i'm assuming arcane shield on a stormwall) to which the only answer we have as a faction is zaal and a thrullg. I keep pondering thrullg to be honest but it isn't stealth and it isn't exactly hard to take down

Rasheth has Blood Mark as well if Arcane Shield is getting you down. Reduces the AS bonus by 2 and let's you use the target as a transfer once.

[Tainted Coil]

Yeah, Blood Mark + Enrage is like +4 strength to their +3. Works better though if you can drop Arcane Shield in the first place.

Hex Blast as mentioned, and you can take Marketh to cast it twice in case it misses.

Some good ideas, nice thought also with Rasheeth to transfer to the Stormwall
