Not me, but my wife. She has just played her first games, and really enjoyed it. Currently we are only playing with the Mk II battle boxes, but have plans to slowly expand her collection.
This is mainly a place to track her progress, brag about her accomplishments, and laugh as she (regularly) kick's my Khador behind.
Any advice given will be passed on (she's not a big forum visiter) as I want her to enjoy this game as much as I do. On that note, in the next month or two we are looking at adding her first solo/unit. Previous advice is to grab a unit of Satyxis Raiders + UA - if this is has changed, I would love to know!

List creation 0-point Battle BoxWarwitch Deneghra [+28] - Clank (Deathripper) [6] - Gimpy (Deathripper) [6] - Spew (Defiler) [8] - Twitch (Slayer) [10] * It's not actually 0-points, but it is a battle box build so it works for now  |

Nope, Raiders are still a good choice!

They are still good. Newbie here that played his first SR on Saturday. Went 2/2 (won two by clock,) but im happy with my performances. Ran Gaspy3 and Aggy1. Both lists ran Raiders and they are extremely viable. They are super fast on the board to either A.) jam a unit, or B.) To get up the board and hold a point. Their UA Gives them either overtake, pathfinder, or +2 DEF against ranged/"immunity" against blast damage" which still cause some game plan changes for your opponent. They seemed to hit hard, and there was a point where I could have gone 3-1 had I seen an opportunity that seasoned watchers saw. The raiders had gotten near Butcher3. The dude had this crazy swing that kills anything in melee (basically), then he can "suck" in models nearby and then reswing to kill the other units. It killed 3/4 of my raiders in one turn leaving 3 up still. Next turn I say "screw it" and charge in with the last 3. All three do no damage (ugh) BUT the second gets the critical knockdown! I had a stalker nearby that went unnoticed and he went in. He left only 10 boxes on butcher up (some less than average dice rolls, otherwise he could have kill him with the 3 focus Aiakos tossed on him.) I gave up after that since I only had 6 minutes left and yeah...It sucked. what I didnt SEE...is one of my inflictors was nearby and could have walked over a wall (he was undamaged and had 2 focus) and could have taken 1-2 free strikes to get in range of said knockdowned Butcher3. My best friend told me that while Ruin and the other heavy would have probably hit my jack pretty hard, a 2 focus half beat up jack could have taken the 10 point left on Buther3. I say it before I shook hands but only after a veteran player had pointed it out. I didnt want to win that way.
Morale of the story? Raiders are gooder =p

Second battle report - poor Sorscha didn't do much better this time, Deneghra gets a scenario win (in Rumble format!). vs Sorscha (0 pts) |

I noticed the Sorscha player in our journeyman league (brand new player) never wailed on stuff with her shatter attack even when able to safely wind rush out. She's and auto-hitting weaponmaster against stationary targets! |
