I was New Guy 17. Figured that I have been playing for a few years now, so the name no longer fit.

Myrmidons to your right. Though be warned. I'm only just looking at Ret so I might have some crazy thoughts time to time.

Hi. I'm rather new to the elves, infact haven't had a chance to play with them yet. Been lurking for a bit though.

Hi. I'm rather new to the elves, infact haven't had a chance to play with them yet. Been lurking for a bit though. Welcome welcome! If you haven't already, I suggest grabbing the starter box. Helynna is an awesome caster, and all the jacks are useful in some way, shape, or form. Any caster you're interested in you want to chat about?

Good Afternoon Everyone!
I'm jumping into Ret now that My year of Circle has ended. Looking forward to playing with some Jacks again. Planning on playing Ret until next years OTC at the bare minimum. Hope to do Scyrah proud.

Helynna seems to be rather interesting.

Helynna and Kaelyssa is a pretty good pairing. Kaelyssa is a pretty good generalist and Helynna can handle the dedicated gunlines. If you are looking for ideas with both casters let us know!

Any ideas would be great! I'm kicking off a JML in 3 weeks and I am playing Helynna in it. I'd like to get any tips or tricks for interesting plays. I can look up lists and copy them, but I'd like to hear about the little known tricks that make Ret sing.

I've had some luck with this Gun Line Helynna list.
Theme List: Forges of War Helynna -30
Hydra 15 Hydra 15 Manticore 14 Manticore 14 Gorgon 9 Gorgon 9 Griffon 8 Griffon 8 Chimera 8
House Shyeel Artificer 0 House Shyeel Artificer 0 Sylys Wyshnalyrr 0 Arcanist Mechanik 0 Arcanist Mechanik 2 Arcanist Mechanik 2 Totals 74
Warjack Points: 100 / 25 = 4 free solos Jacks have Shield Guard Start game with Upkeeps in play
Ideally a game should go something like this: Round 1. The mechaniks load up the Hyrda's and everything else pretty much just runs up. Decel helps vs. other gun lines that out threat you though Round 2. Griffons screen and the Gorgons use their SPD debuff to keep high threat targets at bay. Your heavies and the Artificers focus fire one a big target. With Obliterate and hand of Destruction Helynna you can normally take out a high ARM heavy in one round. Or use a boosted Force Strike, with Sylys you're rolling 4 dice, to have a decent chance of knocking down a high DEF target. Round 3. If you can, get a second round of shooting in and take out another heavy. If not: Round 3+. Fill up the Manticores with Focus during allocation, have the mechaniks give them Concentrated Power, and walk them in to a heavy or two (depending on your opponents Arm you might want to have them use Force Generator to get up to P+S 20). They probably won't each take out a heavy but together they can finish one and hurt a second. The Hydras, Gorgons, and artificers can each take out a solo or work together to take out a light.This is a good time for Helynna to feat (Do Not Wait to get the most out of the other benefits, the ARM Buff is awesome all on its own).
Still working on a good pair for it. At the moment I'm using Vyros1 with jacks and Halberds.

Can confirm from experience that the above list punches holes in everything
