I just find it hilarious that he has another casters feat as a spell (Caine3), and access to Veil of Mists, that is strictly better than Jarl's feat clouds. you think that's bad, go look at gorshade -1 in ret.... He has a spell that denies casting and FEATS in his ctr range. Yeah, you cannot feat while in his 14" control range. Stupidity...

I swear it has to be like the only rule in the game that interacts with feats directly. At least that I know of. It's a neat idea, but I hope it's left there for funzies and doesn't enter the game proper.

Well issyria for one and she also throws up true sight, i can make a list of every caster with a one turn signs and portents feat if you would like there are a good hand full Ok, but that wasn't the point I made whatsoever. It's that Leto's spell is word for word Caine's. No more, no less. I simply found that amusing, no need to get so snarky about it. I was not being nasty i simply thought you wanted a comparison for signs and portents was all

Although of course, everything was broken in mk1, so that kind of proves your point. *Edit- apparently he had the spell in mk2 too! I guess you learn something new every day.

Did anyone else get a Hugh Jackman vibe from Leto's card picture?... Also, will there be new models for these types of locks/casters?

I'd say likely not, as they all have existing models (screw Cygnar and Trolls, you have to get IKRPG models, and Khador/Skorne has to buy a full unit) but it would be hella cool if they did.

I think this is being used as a way to spark interest in the draft caster thing. Which sounds amazing btw

Got a game in last night with him. He is really good. Built a PoD list with a MK, bomber, blitzer, pyre and storm troll and had a lot of fun. His feat is awesome because its straight buffs with no caveats which are rare(non-existent?) in trolls.

conflictchamber.com/#c7201b_-0bm90r0rjnc6jqfJfJ0l0mTrollbloods Army - 74 / 75 points [Theme] The Power of Dhunia [Leto -1] Leto, Blood Brother of the Kriels [+28] - Dire Troll Bomber [19] - Dire Troll Bomber [19] - Dire Troll Brawler [16] - Mountain King [36] - Trollkin Runebearer [0(5)] Northkin Shaman [0(4)] Northkin Shaman [0(4)] Krielstone Bearer & Stone Scribes (max) [9] - Stone Scribe Elder [3] Under feat, Coordinated Fire, and Double Powder Ration, an effective RAT7 Mountain King charges a target and boosts the assault shot to hit an enemy caster. MK does POW16 against caster, kills its charge target, boosts a (now) RAT9 (w/deafen+feat) POW17 into the caster. Bombers move up, and, at RNG 14 (with DPR and Farstrike), RAT 9/11 (with Feat/Deafen/(possibly)standing still) do four POW 19s into the enemy caster. Anything standing in the way dies to the MAT8 Brawler/MAT9 Leto (who has 4 Fury to spend after upkeeping VoD and casting Coordinated Fire with the Runebearer). ETA: It basically feels like Leto does a slightly easier/slightly more powerful ranged assassination than eGrim and a slightly easier (if enemy warcaster is steady)/slightly harder (if not steady) ranged assassination than eGrissel. On the other hand, when combined with the Shamans, he can throw down a pretty decent cloud wall so YMMV between Leto's clouds and eGrissel's Deflection.

Not to be a huge downer, but the coordinated fire only does +3 to daamge rolls, not attack and damage rolls

And coordinated fire is +1 for every other model that hit. So the MK's second shot wouldn't get the bonus.

I wasn't counting coordinated fire in the attack rolls. Feat is +2, deafen is +2, and the bombers can conceivably, with Rng14, stand still for another +2. Fair point about it being for every other model that hits. So that would make the first bomber 17 and the second bomber 18.
Regardless, I think he's at least as good as any other caster that runs a MK/double bombers.
