Thoughts

This is the next iteration of a list I used all three rounds of a recent steamroller winning the first two rounds by assassination and the last via scenario. It leans heavily into using the threat of Kaelyssa and a buffed Hyperion to keep your opponent into spaces you want them in while having multiple scoring elements and useful tech. The change was to reduce a full unit of wardens into a min unit + the executioner solo.  I think the trade off of being slightly less good at taking blur is offset adequately by the addition of sidestep and the general power level of the executioner solo.

I'm Back?

 So it's been a couple of years since I've played but like many other players the broad scale update has me interested. The handful of games I've gotten in have definitely been enough to whet my appetite for more. I'm hoping to use this space to continue spotlighting specific models and combos as well as the occasional battle report.  It will probably take some time for a broad tournament meta to sort out with this level of changes and it will likely be shaken up again when the Orgoth faction is released so these might need updates relatively soon. I also just finished a local steamroller with the new and, in my opinion, dramatically improved Kaelyssa so I'll almost certainly be starting with some thoughts on her changes.

I decided to start a blog mostly because I came up with a name I liked.  I'm going to start the first post with my overly long winded analysis of Retribution themes.  I'm not entirely sure how much I'll actually end up posting on this as my table time has decreased as of late.  I'd like to use it to post lists I am testing and the outcomes of those games.  I'll probably also post random thoughts about the faction from time to time.

Quick Update

I've started to add a list section to the blog.  It is sorted by caster as they appear in war room in the drop down menu on the right.  I'm hoping to be able to aggregate interesting lists in one place that is a little bit easier to find.  My goal is to put some brief thoughts about the caster and then add lists.  For lists that I've hijacked from elsewhere I'll do my best to credit where I saw them.  For lists that I've been working on I'll try to add some brief thoughts. Currently Rahn is the only one that is formatted how I think I want this set up.  If anyone has recommendations for formatting please let me know
