Well considering he went and deleted his account there's probably more to it. Anyway, group shot of my current hobby project: Currently painting up knights, which are smol.

Neat. Very cool Havock
I’m trying to get the energy to paint a few things before an upcoming commission. But the energy just hasn’t been there >.<

That is one heck of a dynamic update for Kozlov!
(I never in my wildest dreams thought Khador would ever get Jackhammer, for starters.)
I am pleased.

Now I just wish I had a pretty Kozlov Alt Sculpt made from some material besides that detail-less PVC battlebox plastic. And, you know, that the pandemic was over and I could play again. My 200-300 games with Kozlov might actually finally pay off! Something something Warcaster and Monsterpocalypse too.

Yeah, the only thing holding me from playing Kozlov now is that I don't own the model, and I won't buy an entire battlebox just for him, I already own too many warjacks (and I only buy Extreme 'jacks now ).

I just had an absolutely horrifying thought.
Berserkers might actually be somewhat playable under Kozlov now.
...
I feel shaken to my core.

Well, his MAT fixer does require someone to be standing pretty close to Berserk range, but it's not calamitous

The thing is that with Jackhammer, you can just have kozlov buy extra attacks for a berserker, which doesn't cause it to explode at all. Plus, MAT 8, P+S 18 and an extra die on the charge mean you dont need to boost that badly on feat turn either.

The feat change to a flat +2 ARM, instead of +2 ARM against melee, is nice. That additional damage die on charge attacks is promising, especially given what I feel is a proliferation of “-2 to damage rolls” or equivalent “+2 to ARM” effects lately.
Maybe all my games with Kozlov in Wolves of Winter would have gone differently had this been in play a year ago. Hitting is still the tricky part with infantry, mind you, but...

It also lets our colossals punch ridiculously hard, consistently. That's pretty hilarious.

I haven’t used a colossal in so long that I can’t remember how long it’s been since I last used a colossal.

Is there any reason rules-wise that colossals can’t use Jackhammer?
Hmm... It’s been ages since I’ve played, but it would seem easy (like, on the table really pretty easy) to casually get Victor up to POW 30 with him in Wolves. Fury on Victor (POW 26), fly in a Void Archon (effective POW 28), and then Gang Fighter with the Archon (POW 30). I’m not counting tricky stuff like landing Brittle Frost (POW 32, seems legit) or scooting in the Hermit.

Void archons are never friendly faction to khador. And no they can absolutely use jack hammer

sorokin, I missed the friendly *faction* part... darn. But if they were friendly faction we’d never have a reason to play them with someone other than Vlad 2 I suppose.
