Hey guys, I am new to the game and have a pretty decent sized Khador army at this point. I have a potential deal to pick up the gun carriage and conquest (along with a few other pieces that I can use) but wanted to see how likely I would be to actually use either of these models. I have several casters (Irusk1/2, Butcher (not sure which ones), Karchev, Sorscha, Strakhov, Vlad1) so I have some options I think.
As a follow up, would Conquest work in a Karchev list? I am anxious to break him out just cause he seems like a fun caster.
Thanks!

Gun Carriage is one of the top models in our army right now, trample 11 shoot to 23. make rough terrain, pow 16 makes it our strongest gun if it can get a boost. in the same activation it can charge impact someone, then slam/kd the target shoot two pow 16's and a pow 11. Then it gets to repo 3"'s its real good.
Conquest is good in some lists, karchev not being one of them. he doesnt benefit from road to war or countercharge spell, and the damage from karchevs feat is just overkill on a base 23 pow model. think more sorscha/irusk 1

Or B1. Retaliation is pretty nice with PS23 fists.

I present to you, for your consideration:
Vlad 1 Big Butts V2
Vlad 1 -Conquest
Malakov 1 -Conquest
Gun carriage
Battle mecks min - CA
Both the carriage and the conquest are fantastically fun pieces. I own two of both, and they're hilarious to play in any conversations.

The old version was two gun carriages, Behemoth and a conquest. As with any huge base model you invest in a lot of points, so losing one hurts. But they are so super fun to play it is worth it.

Ok, I am convinced, I am on the hunt for these models now! Thanks for the feedback.

They aren't models that I use often.
But you can make decent lists with both of them. Vlad2 and Irusk2 are both decent choices for running Conquest.

I thought Journeymans can't have colossals attached to them

I thought Journeymans can't have colossals attached to them Colossals can't be 'jack marshaled, that's likely what you're thinking of. I've now got a Fun Carriage on the way to me; fun casters I want to try it with: - Butcher 1, for feat, Fury and Retaliatory Strike with slam/KD (only 0.5", but still). - Irusk 2, to hide behind, Fire for Effect, and to join up crater AoEs with Artifice. - Old Witch, for Weald Secrets and joining up craters with Murder of Crows. - Sorscha1, also to hide behind, for Boundless Charge, and an extra turn of shootings. - Strakhov1, for Sentry, Occultation, and crazy threat ranges (charging 15.5"!). - Vlad1, for S&P and Boundless Charge. Did I miss anyone?

Not to rain on your parade but: Fire for Effect only on 1. shot Weald Secrets is only half good, because Fun Carriage has pathfinder AWESOME with Sorscha Occultation doesn't help the Fun Carriage

Occultation actually does help the gun carriage! It only won't work on Colossals and Gargantuans.

WOOOT, thats Awesome! (I secretly hopped someone would counter my argument).
Well now I definatlly have to consider the Fun Carriage with Strakov. Especially if I want the KD theme going on (Field Gun/Marauders/Kodiaks)
