Epic Skarre - how do you play her?

[Ghyrrshyld]

Makes sence, although you don't need BS for that (that part caused confusion).

You are more likely to hit a Defense 13 model 3 times with that -2 Def Debuff attached is all.

I agree with blakeh1 about Siren's role in eSkarre's list:
One foc for node to run, and Skarre gives 3 foc to DJ, leaving 4 for all-boosted Perdition.

or 4 for a boosted to hit Black Spot. Nothing worse than firing it off only to miss

The problem is in most of my 50 pts ESakrre lists currently there is not much wiggle room the fit in a Siren without losing someting like either a skarlock, necrosurgeon or pistol wraith so while she seems like an autoinclude, it is a tough choice

Why would you run the Skarlock? I don't and I don't miss it at all.

to cast/reacast Admonition after I use it, or cast Death Ward instead of spending to upkeep it

Sometimes I will cut her to upkeep the spells, but that is when I am running the Necrosurgeon to heal her

[Ghyrrshyld]

I pretty much always cut her for upkeeps, personally. I should work the necrosurgeon in my lists..

This. Between B.Spot making the mechanithralls an effective MAT 7 with 2 attacks, brutes stopping trample attacks, the surgeon healing or regenerating troops, I personally would run 2 necro surgeons behind a full unit of mechanithralls and brutes. I have the ability to regen 6 guys in one turn, heal skarre twice, heal the surgeons, etc. And I have found that regenerating mechanithralls is -insane- for scenario play.

Skarre, Queen of the Broken Coast 6
Defiler 5
Leviathan 9
Bloodgorgers (Leader and 9 Grunts) 8
Mechanithralls (Leader and 9 Grunts) 5
*3 Brute Thrall 3
Necrosurgeon & 3 Stitch Thralls 2
Necrosurgeon & 3 Stitch Thralls 2
General Gerlak Slaughterborn 3
Necrotech & 1 Scrap Thrall 1
Pistol Wraith 3


Something like that might work at 35, a good melee unit to follow up the annoying mechanithralls that never seem to go away. Levi is great with black stop, more so if you can set up a shot with admonition and not have to move, RAT 5+2 for aiming, +2 for spot is RAT 9, 2 focus will make him eat someone's face.

[Malfunction]

I also always cut. If I don't need the focus I will just heal myself on her activation.

[GaspysInhaler]

I also always cut. If I don't need the focus I will just heal myself on her activation.

That's one thing I need to start doing. Spending some focus on her feat turn to heal if I'm not confident the Necrosurgeon will be around later on, and if I don't need the focus.
