Looks pretty good, just a few small things.

First off, are these two lists for a steamroller type event, or just in general? I only ask because if it is, then they will be character restricted, so no DJ in both lists.

The Morty list at 35 and 50 is good, but the only issue is that they are going to suffer vs lists that don't have lots of living models. Otherwise duel crabjacks is never bad as a castle for Morty, and terminal velocity on harrowers can be devastating.

For the pDenny list at 35/50 (if you decide to drop DJ from that one), I'd change DJ to Nightmare and add in a Skarlock (free ghost walks are worth it).

Hey nova, Thanks again for the help in my first post. Im well on my way now with the game haha.

It is not for an event, so character jacks are allowed. Im really liking the DJ and I own him, he was the entire reason I went with morty, I want to deliver him and all his glory to eat alive the enemy warcaster! haha

I ran a skarlock the other day and it did literally nothing, im not sure if we just dont run a lot of terrain compared to most places, (it sure isnt from a lack of available terrain) or I just dont find myself needing ghost walk that often but I decided to drop the skarlock in favour of either a pistol wraith or warwitch siren, cannot remember which one it actually ended up replacing.

Seeing as I dont own nightmare, though I did want to get him he doesnt fit in a tier4 morty list due to restrictions so I went with deathjack due to his focus efficiency on a caster that doesnt really like to dole out much focus.




Automatically Appended Next Post:
Ive been trying to decide how to include a skarlock and really the only way is to drop the solo war witch siren.. I think the war witch siren is more valuable but perhaps not..

Always happy to jump in. I've just been really busy the last few months, so I don't get to peruse the boards as much as I like.

What I meant with character restriction: in standard events you can only have characters once. So you could take DJ with Denny or Morty, but not both. But yeah, for normal play, no issues.

Having the skarlock in is more of a TAC thing. There usually should be enough terrain for ghost walk to be helpful (especially vs crafty caters who try to hide), but even without, there are plenty of spells, feats, and even weapons which can create temporary rough terrain to make it a consideration.

While I do love me some DJ, if you ever take Morty out of tier, Nightmare is a great addition to her. TV and Prey give him crazy threat ranges vs living models (speed 6 + 3 for charge + 2 for TV + 2 for prey + 2 for reach, and an additional 6 if you trigger overrun).

Regardless, sounds like you're getting along well with Cryx

I still want nightmare, so when I get him after the combine/reaper ill likely swap out DJ for him and add the skarlock, I can see the benefits of a skarlock and likely I just didnt happen to need him in the few games I played. I had the wrong impression of what he was really supposed to be doing too which basically limited what i was capable of..
