I'm interested to see how the colossals stack up against an army of the same size without a colossal. So, say this is 18 points. Play an 18 point game with the kraken (+WJ Points from caster of course) against 18 points of whatever the other army is. I understand that isn't the point and it would probably lose, but it would be interesting to see how it did in that scenario.

Anyone know how many points these things are?

So we see a little deeper into what they can do. The Cryx one eats you to generate focus, the Cygnar one has those Storm Pods. I can't wait to get the full rules for these things.

It's funny, here it's positive reviews; in the news and rumors, it's negative.

I'm really, really trying to talk myself into getting one of the colossals. I just don't know that I can do it. I mean, I still haven't even bought any of the siege engines.

Battle engines weren't that great anyway, so no worries there. The only problem I see with the colossals is their "colossal" point cost. I get that they're obviously intended for larger games but when I think of how much other stuff I can take for 18-20 points...they just really better be *that* good on the field.

That being said, I *am* getting the Kraken and probably whatever the Legion equivalent will be.

I like how it looks like a new cryx warjack with guns instead of just a new type of punchy weapon.

Or maybe I like wrong things with tentacles.

On others! I meant on others!

I was just noting the dichotomy of Dakka.

Besides, I'd rather post under your protective wings Mal.

Wait, so, Kraken resembles Swamp Horror quite a bit to me...anyone else?

Not me.

I'd like the model if it did resemble the swamp horror more and ditched those dinky little legs for more tentacles.

Really? The tentacles are in almost the same position. The body/head shape is near identical with just detail differences.

As much as I dislike the aesthetics for warmachine, I admit, this is a really cool model.

Now why doesn't GW release videos like these? All we get is a bloody 20 second long ham and cheese fest
