 Re: Episode 068 - Legion MkII Field Test
Good walkthrough of the legion models. I was psyched to have my questions addressed on the Rhyas tactics. I have been running her with Blighted Swords and Incubi. I agree with your statement that Reach is huge/almost mandatory the way it interacts with her feat.
Sadly, I do not really own a nephalim protector or legionnaires yet. The tough thing with the field test is that the models and tactics you used to use may not really hold true, but it is hardly worth buying a bunch of minis for a field test. I could see her also being really good with the war mongers and chiefs.
With the bump to MAT 8, I don't know if that will make the harrier more optional now. But it definitely makes Rapport much better.
Good work on the podcast and look forward to the minions.

 Re: Episode 068 - Legion MkII Field Test
Glad you enjoyed the discussion. I always waffle on the harrier with Rhyas, but more often than not I settle on the side of redundancy. On an assassination run, I'll tend to boost to hit if I need a 7 or higher, so against a high-DEF lower-ARM target I'm usually willing to give up the optional crit for an auto hit.
It's tough - there are other options in the Legion army that can my plans for a legion army fit better for the Harrier's point cost, so it's a gamble to include for me. I usually wind up tossing it in anyway though.

 Re: Episode 068 - Legion MkII Field Test
This episode was, IMO, the only real in depth podcast on Legion to be found anywhere. Thanks much guys, and you have a new fan.
