And dont you think kolgrima is a good drop in PoD ? Feat is denying shooting too and have mulg with arcane vortex and you have owl's Wlsdom against parasite and crippling grasp. It seems to be a nice drop too It's the lack of RFP which is the problem. Other than that it's an excellent cryx drop. then you play her in BoH

Well to be fair, with a lucky shot-ed WW, you have a 91.66% chance of hitting directly OR catching them with blast assuming they were the target. With blast of pow 9 you also have a 91.66% chance of killing when you hit a blast. That means if you can target it directly, before cover or concealment you have just over an 84% chance of blowing him up. Oh that is right. The fact that it is aoe 5 rather than 4 drastically increases the chance of scattering and hitting. BUT explosivo will only RFP on a direct hit, so it is not super helpful...:-( That is correct... for some reason I had it in my head that everything RFPed but only direct hits became AoEs... Womp womp. Guess I'll be taking another look at Grim1 PoD then. Steady def 16 with elevation is something they can't really handle. (And just to clarify, you shouldn't be expecting them to drop Ghost Fleet if you play gunny, you'll crush them. They'll play whatever flavor of dark host / infernal machines they brought to pair).

Madrak 1 might play well into it when he changes come out as well. Particularly with a field of steady def 15 Raiders. Sorc/stone for magic weapons. Quick work should help get to leaders.

Killing the leader serves no special purpose if you do not RFP. If you cant do that you have to go for the "kill more than come back"-approach. That is tough for sure, but not impossible. Raiders are probably decent.

If taking mercs and minions becomes an option in themes then the Sacral Vault with Gunny may become very useful for its ability to snipe out unit leaders. Not only that but is very strong into all of the Cryx single wound infantry sue to soulstorm preventing charges.

Is it worth taking Thrullg/Eilish in Gunnbjörn PoD to get rid of Grippling Grasp on the MtK?

Do you think that our new cid offer enough to build one list to deal with either gf and dark Horst.

Do you think Explosivo on a Blitzer might actually be good? Especially with Lucky Shot?

Not only that but is very strong into all of the Cryx single wound infantry sue to soulstorm preventing charges. The Sacral Vault no longer RFPs with Deathly Dominion, I think they changed it so it could still get souls.

You can do a janky version of RFP by dominating their leader and then if he dies while dominated you don't promote a new leader.
