Just for the sake of it, did you try to spam only destroyers and see what happens? I don't think it will change much, but spamming the cheapest ranged jack could be a way to gauge if the spell can be abused or not. Spending 3 focus to affect only 2 or 3 jacks doesn't looks like it's worth anything.

1. Rowdy, you're onto something. However I have to ask you how many games do you get in every week to be able to have this much experience with crap Hark lists? At the moment? None. Like 2 months ago.... Like 3 games a week is a good average (Some weeks more, some weeks less), been playing for a year, and then at least 1 game a Harkevitch for about a year. I have it marked down that I have played him about 42 times with variations of ranged battlegroups. I know its not a SUPER amount, but It still is quite allot Just for the sake of it, did you try to spam only destroyers and see what happens? I don't think it will change much, but spamming the cheapest ranged jack could be a way to gauge if the spell can be abused or not. Spending 3 focus to affect only 2 or 3 jacks doesn't looks like it's worth anything. Yes. They are the best Bombardiers but the end result is still pretty bleh. Its very hard to abuse the spell regardless. |

All competitive jack gunlines are built with ranged light spam. We don't have those so no jack gunline for us. 14-16 pt for a heavy with 1-2 shots is simply not enough firepower to build army around.
The only time when I played something resembling a working jack gunline was Vlad 1 with Behemoth and Destroyers (preferably with Seers) because S&P is busted.

If you want to play ranged jacks, play Sorscha 1...

I think broadsides ought to be switched out with snipe.
Snipe+Mobility+Reposition 3" sounds fun!

Yes. They are the best Bombardiers but the end result is still pretty bleh. Its very hard to abuse the spell regardless. Then it's crap. In the end we all know Harkevich is strong now because of mobility, not other intrinsic benefits. And if B3 would still be able to energize for 3", he would still be the jack caster of choice. Well mobility add a nice pathfinder caking on top, but yes, I'm sure everyone can see the point here. |
