Anyone else getting a Blank portrait on her? I really hate that War Room bug, lol

She can totally play as a jack caster. In fact she is probably the best jack caster we have now...

Yup Blankity Blank Blank Blank.
I'm just thinking about the calculations required in order to keep more of her army safe using Windstorm then just herself.
Depends on the gunners as well. What would a general gun threat be from a current list anyways?

Thanks for the confirmation guys Also, I think I'm going to run her Jack Heavy, don't know if under Winter Guard Kommand or Jaws. Should be working on my project but I'll be playing with War Room instead

I'm not seeing her as a jack caster. Her jack based abilities only work on one jack at a time. Feels like she'd be happier with a small but elite battlegroup.

Regardless of how good she will shake out to be, at least she is VERY new in Khador, Debuffs, Arcane Power, Lots of Focus, lots of gimmicks.

She can fuel jacks like an 8 focus caster, but she won't be doing anything else. Power magnifier can only be used once.

literally the first word in Arcane Machinery are, "once per turn..." That means she can only activate one ability per turn but each ability lasts 1 round. And Power Magnifier lists no limitations on how many times it can be used per round.

I'm partial to sending out Jack Missiles one at a time, it's my main piece trade play style Plus during Feat turn you could get a lot of jacks up the field with plenty of focus. A couple of them could even be under Forge Seers or Andrei @rowdy huh, your interpretation is interesting. It essence you are saying the following: "Once per turn, this model gains Power Magnifier. A Model with Power Magnifier can spend 1 focus point bla bla bla" hmmmm (i was all in on her even before this interpretation, although I'm pretty certain tesoe is correct).

And Power Magnifier lists no limitations on how many times it can be used per round. "Once per turn at any time during it's activation, this model can use one of the following effects." Sounds like she can use one effect, once per turn to me. The individual effects don't need to call out their usage because the main rule already clarified it.

The last line if you keep reading it says "Arcane machinery effects last for one round" Seems pretty clear cut?
