Hey guys, I am switching over to running caliban and I wanted to know if you had any lists you were running with him? I started goofing around with double threshers and was amazed at how well he works.

So why the vault instead of the thresher? Thresher has more boxes,cost less, and you can send it in on feat turn to do stupid amounts of work

Oh the Thresher has occurred to me, never fear.
The original reason for the Vault was to test it in CID. But additionally, if the Brigands are doing the work with their Pig Irons and Parasite and Prey, then I need something to both feed Calaban's feat and clear out chafe infantry (as I don't want to waste Brigand attacks). The Vault is much better at that then the Meat Thresher. It can really reach into awkward places to get models to back strike and kill one another, feed itself and Calaban, and pop out another Parasite. Calaban offers no help with ranged hitting, and the Vault can boost. Additionally, it can be tweaked to go into Ghost Fleet with Bone Shaker and Domination from the Vault stopping the recursion, as well as the Vault's magical weapons. Then it is nice to have something to play into Cryx that doesn't automatically crumble into moderate armor.

You could also argue that we have no idea how the meat tresher will look like on errata day. If you want to play some SR until then, you can't use the new BE yet.

Has anyone tried him in theme? Also telemetry buffs the bokurs stationary attack which seems good. Noticed you can take the gobber tinkerer in theme as well
