Ive been playing ossrum/magnus 2 with 6 heavies pairing lately. I tend to play ossrum into ret/legion/circle/cryx and magnus 2 into skorne/khador/coc/trolls...depending on the matchup.
Ill def revisit thexus as he is one of my favorite casters. I did not know blinding light just affects magic attacks. Guess it makes sense to read the cards....

While we're dropping knowledge bombs, since concussive pulse is a star action it avoids a lot of triggers for abilities. The models killed by a concussive pulse are not dying due to an enemy attack.

So I actually played into a very similar list last night and completely curb stomped the infantry with trenchers. Repo out of clouds prevents targeting blinding light and the assault shots (with 3 grenadiers) takes care of huge chunks of the infantry.

Sounds like it was in LR at the bare minimum.

True Sight allows her and her army to see through the cloud wall. Not sure how you survived that turn with enough trenchers in tact to make that impactful for the rest of the game.

Well, I went first and she didn't feat bottom of 1, so...
As for Ragnman, I don't intend to play this into any list that requires me to crack more arm than the jacks + stormlances + gorman can handle, and gorman offers more utility. Also, I'm really just bad at him. I never put him in the right spot.
