Check it out! Free charges all of the time, with an extra +2" distance and pathfinder when charging constructs. /

It’s neat in that its a small beast damage buff that overlaps with Slipstream and has some uses with solos and the Throne. Right now I see the Blighted Nyss Warlord and Grotesque Assassin as solos that are immediate fans of this animus. Anybody else see uses with solos? edit: this really depends on how much we pay for it. If it’s in the standard 8 or less slot it’s probably very good. On more expensive models it probably dictates list design and limits appeal.

I wonder what theme the Mechanoshredder is in... That is a ridiculous animus. I would love to get a threat extender on a more point efficient model than the seraph though. And... Anti construct! I hate all the anti living BS so it's great to see anti construct.

It isn't a character? What? That seems ludicrous, both in cost and availability.

Just a guess here but with the Mechano in the title and the FA 2 maybe the Mechanoshredder isn’t available from the Spawning Vessel?

Oh man - I didn't think about pairing this little guy with Typhon (why doesn't he have Pathfinder?). I also like the idea of him helping out a Blighted Nyss Warlord. I wasn't that excited at first but now... maybe there is more to this little bugger than I thought.

Where is this from? RiotQuest? What is its backstory? Bethayne finally cashed in on that IOU from Arkadius, and he made some steamwork improvements on the Shredder?
Don't leave me hanging here...

Where is this from? RiotQuest? What is its backstory? Bethayne finally cashed in on that IOU from Arkadius, and he made some steamwork improvements on the Shredder? Don't leave me hanging here... Built by an unknown (and likely insane) engineer, the Mekanoshredder was originally intended to protect its creators against the various threats lurking within the ruined Iron Kingdoms. That lasted about five seconds, before it ate them. For some time, the Mekanoshredder wandered alone through the wastes, gobbling up scrap metal and fusing the digested bits of steel and iron to its metallic frame. Other scavengers observed this behavior and discovered that for just a handful of nuts and bolts as payment, this vicious little robot would actually perform its programmed duty and defend them as a loyal bodyguard. Mekanoshredder is a Guard Class Hero with a fair amount of versatility and utility for any Crew. The little monster can gain a player Loot tokens just for hitting enemies, and it’s capable of rerolling multiple dice when attacking or rigging bounties based on how many Gear cards the player has in their discard pile. This model is also playable in WARMACHINE & HORDES as a Legion lesser warbeast with a Field Allowance of 2.

Well, I will believe in parallel Arkadius related fluff in WMH world.
This is the fifth choice for the Beast Mistress so far, and this one could actually be worthwhile. Dole out anti Warjack threat extenders (and free charge source for all others) at no cost to the Warlock, with a nice secondary melee punch. Better than Sorceress on Helion, for just two points more.

Just remember that the +2 is only against constructs. Good into jacks, Wolds, and Exalted.
