There's a pic of the card, but all the stats are wiped. They provide the numbers below
and the idea is to try to figure out what the actual stats will be.
5, 10, 1, 14, 1, 16, 20, 12, 10, 16, 19, 4, 14, 10, 7, 2, 8
SPD
STR
MAT
RAT
DEF
ARM
CMD
TELEFORCE CANNON
RNG
ROF
AOE
POW
PC
FA
Fill it in!

I dunno Lord Black Fang, I think the RNG will be at least 14. Looks good otherwise.

Even without the numbers we can see that it is but a glorified weapon team.
AOE must be 5 as it can only be -, 3 or 5.
The Khador carrige is FA:2 so I'm guessing that the 2 belongs in FA.

Yeah the Khador Gun Carriage looks and sounds like a gun team too. At least we know the altar isn't a gun team cuz there's no gun.

Thats pretty good! Speed 16 with a cost of 1 and FA of 20..
Need 20 for every army.. Defense of 2 is pretty badass, so if it gets knocked down it gains defense

Yes, he intentionally threw in a few extra numbers just for more fun guessing.
And these are supposed to be billed as support pieces, so it's probably got some kind of shield effect on near by units, making it more than just glorified artillery.

Yeah, honestly I'd be surprised it if doesn't have Force Field, given that all the Battle Mages thus far are immune to blasts anyhow. Letting the damn thing pick where your blasts are going isn't too much of a step up.

So, what are we going to call this thing?
The Cricket? The Arcantricket?
|
He's got a mind like a steel trap. By which I mean it can only hold one idea at a time;
it latches on to the first idea to come along, good or bad; and it takes strenuous effort with a crowbar to make it let go.

^I see what the consensus has done there...
Anyway, I like it, it looks very different yet looks Retribution.
|
This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Kinda funny.
Largest model for Ret compared to a dinky-looking little gun.

Ok. Even if the back of the card is blank, that is something that has to be dealt with.
RAT 7 Range 14 POW 14 Magic is a combo that is just nasty.
The only thing holding it back is the ROF 1.
It is arguable whether it is worth 10, but a Ranged Magic weapon is something Retribution needed.
Noe more eDenny going incorporeal and pushing up the middle, feating everything in scenario.
At least until this dies.

The fact that it has ammo types means this is not really a spoiler at all.

Other shenanigans.
