If you feel like being really cruel to your Meta consider Strak1 with the carraige. Put occultation on it and make them come to you if they want to kill it.

I'm amazed that the Gun carriage stayed the same as it's final CID iteration. I think it's a bit over the top. But that said, hello ghost fleet drop. Silence of death gun carriage and lawn mower through all the pirates. I'm also incredibly disappointed the Ret battle engine did not see any defensive nerfs. Some very good players have been using the CID version of it for the last month and a bit and frankly it's broken as all heck and they agree. Having both carapace and polarity field makes it incredibly non interactive. It basically stays all game in one spot shooting things 16 inches away using it's boosted damage shot. You're not shooting it off the table, polarity field makes it very hard to close on without just throwing something away to run up to it, and you cannot ignore the work it does. It's also incredibly scary when the ret player forms a bunker with it and a hyperion, granting the hyperion another 2 rng. It absolutely should have lost one of polarity field or carapace before going live, I have no idea what PP was thinking. It's such a miserable piece to play against and it's honestly making me think about taking a sabbatical from warmachine. There is a lot of ret in my area and there are going to be double tick lists everywhere. It's a direction PP is taking the game which I really don't enjoy. I agree, I think the AFG is way to good for its point cost. I fail to see how this thing didnt loose some stuff. Why does it need so much defense teck when it can shoot 16in and most stuff will die before you get to it? Standalone model v model sure it may not be to bad but when you have an army in front of it it is just stupid good. Way to good. Im slowly loosing faith in PP and CID. Never the less im not switching games... but something needs to change imo.
