Hello guys,
and again I have a maybe silly Question for you
Do ya know a Faction, List or whatever, which is mostly based on the Weapon Crews, Catapults, or whatever?
Like the Venator Crew, the Thumper, Scather Crew or anything else...
I like the Idea of an list with stands or falls with their artillery weapons...

I think the two closest contenders for this are Cygnar Gravediggers or Khador Armored Korps (if you include tankers).

Hammerfall relies heavily on the Artillery Corp. And once it comes out the steelhead artillery will be a big feature of the Steelhead theme

Steelhead has a lot of light artillery options available to them "now", including bringing them for free in the Theme. Mark Target is also a benefit (if you bring enough solos) to make them quite accurate.

Yeah the accuracy you can achieve in Steelhead is pretty crazy, rat 5 base, aiming +2, vet leader +1, Mark Target +2, cheeky rat 10. Up to rat 12 with volume fire from the Volley Gun. I was easily shooting into melee with artillery

I think steelhead is going to be the artillery faction TBH.

I think steelhead is going to be the artillery faction TBH. Not really the only time you will see artilery is with Ossrum leading the stealheads (assumming he is allowed on theme) and maybe Damiano (focus free buffs are great) I see the artilery being used more as a support roll in stealheads over primary forces.

In Gravediggers you could take 6 artillery crews plus 1 merc artillery unit if you really wanted.

Juris is talking my language! If I'm honest the more I look at this the more I want to play it... It seems very very silly of course. But when else will you get to put 7 weapon crews on the table? conflictchamber.com/?c1201b_-0F7E9g9g9ginifira4a3a3iQiQigig9U9WikilCygnar Army - 74 / 75 points [Theme] Gravediggers [Haley 1] Captain Victoria Haley [+27] - Grenadier [9] - Grenadier [9] - Grenadier [9] Commander Anson Hitch [4] Patrol Dog [2] Horgenhold Artillery Corps [6] Rangers [9] Trencher Cannon Crew [0(6)] Trencher Cannon Crew [0(6)] Trencher Chain Gun Crew [4] Trencher Chain Gun Crew [4] Trencher Express Team [0(5)] Trencher Express Team [5] Trencher Infantry (max) [16] - Trencher Infantry Rifle Grenadier (1) [2] Trencher Long Gunners (max) [18] - Trencher Long Gunner Officer [4]

Whenever I take a Winterguard-heavy Khador list (which is most of the time), I usually include two mortars, and they usually earn their points back.
