Agreed I have always loved the model but it has never been quite worth it to pick one up. I have a weakness for finding a way to fit things into a list for thematic reasons... I find ways to make it work and still maintain a good win ratio. I live by the motto of "a well practiced average list can beat a S tier list that hasn't been played more than 10 times. In MK2 I had at least 100 games as Caine2 ( playing the same list every game). I learned the limits of the list, which I believe gave me an advantage over my opponent. I'm now translating that to Ret(my main faction now Helynna and Ossyan currently and will be adding Vyros1 with new releases) and Mercs(Caine3 +Magnus2 purely for thematic and lore reasons).

I agree I have always been someone who doesn't really care about a lot about the power ranking of models but having as little money to put towards the hobby as I currently do making the leap of getting a Battle Engine/My First Huge Base would have been a big step.

Always loved it mk3. Great investment. Never understood why it wasn't taken more often. 😊
