So, I played protectorate up until mk3. Like a lot of people with faction adhd, I had one "main" faction which was a lot larger than the others, got used more, etc, and at the time my favourite aspect of protectorate (one of the side factions) was the super accurate warjacks. Running around at mat 8 rat 7 was awesome, and going to mat 6 rat 5 was a tough pill to swallow. So, I cut ties with protectorate in order to fund the expansion of circle.
Anyway, I'm coming back. I always liked protectorate aesthetically, and I have moved past having low attack stats.
So, a few things. I acquired a pretty large lot with a lot of useful stuff, but I'm honestly not sure where to go with it.
First off, Creators Wrath. This theme looks like a mess, and honestly I'm wondering if jack lists are better in exemplar interdiction. Sure, there is a serious lack of free points, but blessed weapons are probably more useful than a few sorta useful support solos. I dunno, I really want to play reznik 1 and I'm not sure where to play him.
Second, I have a unit of tfg, a unit of daughters, and a unit of cleansers. Is there any point or reason to play guardians of the temple? The theme looks pretty underwhelming, and the fact that I don't own what is likely the best unit in the theme and it's available in a different, more interesting theme is also an issue. I do want to play thyra, but it looks like she is pretty good in EI, but is she better in guardians? Is there any caster better in guardians? Or should I try to sell my guardians stuff (everything sells for the right price, and it is painted pretty well)?
Onto faithful masses. As far as I'm aware, as an outsider, this is "harbinger or nobody." Is there any other caster that runs this theme decently, remotely as well as they run EI? As a second question, what units are useful in the theme with harby? I'm picturing idrians and solos is the standard.
I don't have any questions about EI. It looks like Devourers Host, in that every caster in the faction can run it in some way except one, has a wide variety or useful stuff available, and experimenting with different casters and lists looks interesting.
