Maybe they'll have the reanimation rule like the undead pirates in Cryx, where you kill the leader to make them not return in the maintenance phase.

I'm also confused as to what the Tharn Archers are bringing to the table. Right now our ranged options are limited, with our best being Bloodtrackers and Shrimps, with a Minions option being better than all of them. Reeves could be better if not so costly...
If you wanted to give me ranged, I'd have rather had Reeves lowered in cost to not suck. If you wanted to give me Ravagers, I'd have rather had Tharn get a UA that works or a near total redesign from the ground up. I mean, if you wanted them to be good, they should have Overtake and Reform. Or at least have that granted by UA. Or something.
But hey, at least my Gargantuan can be highly resistant to magic and shooting. Now I just have to figure out how to protect him from being torn apart in melee before he can do his job. Whatever the heck that is...

Good news. This is the best time in the hobby. Full of promise. GW lets us down each time and we know it but secretly we're hoping that this is the edition that GW gives us a balanced game that can also be played competitively at tournaments. I'm loving it.

It is designed so the wings are removable so at least it's a bit easier to transport. Still looks like a pain, but not as bad.

Seeing as it's price will be in line with the other Colossals/Gargantuans currently released I'm failing to see how much sticker shock can come from such a thing?

I assume Mattlov isn't a fan of those current prices is all.
I don't know. Games Workshop and Privateer Press have broken
any imaginary price line for me. It's what I enjoy, so I'll spend it.

By what Ive seen it costs $25 more to store owners than a stormwall to stock, so i'd expect it to be the most expensive of the bunch.

Anyone Else get the feeling this looks like a piece you will display? Not play? It looks to big and cumbersome to carry, Heck, you might have to buy a stroller to carry it around in.

Oh no. It will be played.
If I bought one and painted it, I'd want to play it. It's not like I'm
