Thamarite Archon, Outside the Obvious

I think it's good even when not playing Zerkova. The gun is solid and brings some control and rfp to the table that can be nice and fits with any caster really. I'm also liking it with OW2, like any gun it gets good mileage out of curse of shadow, so it's one more gun to add to the list. The thamarite archon is also probably the most self sufficient of the archon, the menite archon wants faction models to trigger his righteous fury, the morrowan archon is a very defensive piece and has veteran leader but is not affected by it, the thamarite archon is affected by his own reroll schtick, so even if you don't have any other thamarite models he still gets benefits from all his rules.

I like it in both wolves and armored corps, in wolves he brings some much needed spot removal to the list and in armored corps he's one more model with a great gun that can work well with the tankers. Haven't really though about Jaws mostly because I highly dislike the theme, don't think he fits that well in winterguard kommand where you probably want some melee models to complement the amount of shooting your winterguard bring to the table, and to disengage your models. We don't talk about legion of steel...

That merc slot is going to be a tough choice tho, the thamarite archon is interesting, but so is Alexia2 and the both fight for the same spot, there is also all the new riot quest solos and a couple of them are great so yeah, the thamarite archon is not an auto pick, but he's clearly in the running for the merc slot.
