Anybody try out the Morghoul2 gunline thing yet? That guy's probably about as close to Denny1 as Skorne is ever going to get. 21" threat on the feat (without a charge), him and puffypants each toss out a Mortality, and he Fate Walkers back to safety... then your army shoots the snot out of em. Are there any guns in Skorne that DON'T love having +6 to hit and +2 to damage?
It might even be the way to play the Venator theme... you lose access to Molik, but you do get a wall for Morgs to hide behind mid-table, plus a couple free catapults (which can actually hit things under his feat). Seems good.

I'll try him with Stomples and a Mammoth. He seems strong, but I've get to figure him out.

I like how the response to "non cetrati cataphracts are shit" is "cetrati are good tho"
Like not even an attempt to mitigate how fucking terrible arcuarii and Incindiarii are
I've definitely toyed with the Mammoth (both gargossals are actually pretty interesting with him) but for now I'm trying troop heavy and long range (for Skorne). There's probably another version of this where you focus on one turn of hyper-accurate shorter range shooting... things like Drakes and Arcuarii go crazy under feat and/or mortality.

Looks good. Stealth WILL be an issue though.

>how fucking terrible arcuarii and Incindiarii are Why do people insist on lumping all models into the two categories of "OMG Broken" and "Unplayable Trash"? There's a definite spectrum between those two extremes. Sure, the shooting cataphracts are pretty niche, but they're still going to do work if you take them. It's not as if auto-fire AOE's or weaponmaster shooting are things you're sad you brought in your list. They're just maybe a little overpriced for how difficult they can be to deliver.

>Looks good. Stealth WILL be an issue though. Definitely some truth to that. Could try to work in soulwards to deal with it. On the other hand, mass stealth (and LoS blocking) only shows up in a couple factions... maybe that just ends up being your other list.
Some varieties of anti-gunline, you might be able to just shake up your strategy too. Even with the guns on lock, Morg2 still has a nasty assassination and, into some matchups, a crippling control feat. It may be enough to just play through.

There is a spectrum. It's just that those two.units are on the absolute shit end.
In comparison, nihilators are "okay", swordsmen and karax are "pretty great"
