Before MK3, Alexia1 is a nice character unit. However, since the release MK3, I no longer play it becoz 90% of my enemy are soulless. But yesterday, I play some small game with Alexia, it shine in the rules of 2017SR. 1) Alexia1 is unit, it claim circle. 2) She can summon the solo to capture the flag 3) The mobility are far beyond my opponent can imagine
Summon the Grunts with 9" then move 6", then replace it with Thrall Warrior and run extra 12", that means if you have the soul last time you can summon a Thrall Warrior thats to capture a flag 27" away or cancel others to get the victory points.

Just to clarify: Alexia1 collects corpse tokens, not soul tokens. So if you kill a soulless -but living- model, she still get a new risen the following turn. With that said, it is good to know about her ability in SR2017. I will try her out

Alexia is one of my favourite units in the game: she can flood the field with chaff, she can get boosted shots into stuff, she takes the sting out of losing your infantry, she has fun movement tricks with the thralls (and just summoning Risen in enemy models' back arcs), and she can do damage herself when it comes to it.
Spellward has made her a little less fun, and I hate having to pick between her and Gallant/Versh. I actually can't play her in Mercs at the moment simply because I only have two Merc jacks so I can't build a legal list that doesn't include Gallant. She's still in pretty much all my Khador lists though.

I hadn't considered how much versatility she would have; thanks for the tip! Back to the drawing board.

I used to run her a lot with my McBain! lists as she made a great target for countermeasures able to shut down shooting for most of the table, but in mk3 the spell ward has reduced her versatility for me. But if your looking for a cheap tarpit that doesn't need caster support she is great.

This thread caused me to have a fever dream last night. Ashlynn + Forge Guard + Siege Crawler + Alexia1 + Wrong Eye and Snapjaw
