Turtles? It's a mistake to ignore them. Under his feat they are incredible and they give X2 the ability to threaten outside of his control range a well as give him something to hide behind when needed. Yeah turtles are almost impossible to ignore in most skorne lists. My only grumble with the turtle crutch we have as a faction is that the can be hard countered by effects they can't shake blind, paralysis etc. I also think Tibbers is excellent with X2 given the Overtake as you mentioned + shield guard+hyper make him hard to handle... Yeah, they have hard counters. In those instances, your other list needs to be ready. My other list is WoD Rasheth, so it stops most things except Shadow Bind, which I can usually just stay at range to avoid. Paralysis we have no answer for at all, since beasts can't shake it either. Fortunately all it does to turtles is to prevent them from charging. They can still trample and shoot.
