The one thing that image can show you is that the King will need both Rush and Quicken to clear a medium base directly in front of him. Charging at angles will help, but there still a fairly small band around the initial position that can be occupied.

I could be wrong, but you can Magic Bullet off of any one thing the Mountain King spray hits yes? After reading the rule of magic bullet I can even argue that if you hit 4 dudes with your MTK, you can choose 4 magic bullet targets. My reasoning: Spray hits and damage are resolved simultaneously. Magic butt says that you choose a target within 4 inch of the target directly hit (no limit on # targets). if you hit 4 dudes than you have 4 direct hits. Since they are simultaneously you choose a target for each direct hit. Then due to the simultaneous effect of the spray the magic bullets damage roll is resolved on 4 dudes. then magic bullet expires. But there is probably a rules clarification for this

But there is probably a rules clarification for this You have a Magic Butt? If you read the rules again, you see that is says that you choose "another" (so that is ONE other) model. The MK spary may hit several guys, but you still only get to chose ONE other model to be hit by the magic butt... i mean magic bullet

It triggers once ravenfire. But being able to have options on who to bounce to is nice.

Huh. I always took it to mean that the very next model you made an attack roll against was the one that it was triggered from. If this is correct, I'll be adding more sprays to my Jarl lists in the future.

It just says if an attack directly hits, choose a model within range of the model directly hit to bounce to. All models under a spray that are hit are directly hit.

Another does not equal one other. Another means a other model imho. But I agree that the intent of the rule was for one model to be chosen. Thus I play it like this. At a tournament I would be tempted to ask for a ruling on it

I played my MK with Jarl back in Mk2, it is not as bad as people think. Sure the feat doesn't work, but he is a great target for magic bullet, both to get it and to bounce off, and he also is a nice anchor in the list. However, I think a Glacier king might also be interesting, to give Jarl concealment and for the occasional kd on the ranged attack.
