| Post subject: | Gargant Army List (Orkstein) |
Hello! today I took a closer look at the Orkstein army list. Since I have tons of Stompaz, I am looking for a good way to use them in an army. Sadly, the list I found suitable was outdated, and I was very dissapointed to find that the Stompa Mob was removed from the current list. That's a shame IMO. Also I miss the Snappa mob, surely it cannot be OP without the Landa in the list? any plans to bring either back? cheers, |

Both the Stompa mob and the Snappa mob got removed so as to focus on the Gargants part of the Gargants army list. |

well but you left the infantry mob in, so where's the difference? I don't quite get it. I find Dreads and Khans and Stompaz to be much more appropriate to be running around at the Gargants' feet. It is a mech list, isn't it? |

It's a Gargant list, and I looked to primarily focus on those aspects that fit that theme, and remove elements that hurt the theme, or were simply unnecessary. I'm sure that a list could be made that had air-transportable squadrons of Dreadnoughts, but I didn't feel it was appropriate for a Gargant list to be focusing on that. The infantry mobs were kept, as a way to allow the list some units to capture ground, but their deployment options were considerably reduced to keep them from being a primary detachment. I'm no longer the champion by the way. |

The air-assault Dreads seemed a bit overpowered to me when I read the earlier list, so removing the Landa made sense to me. But I thought the mob itself to be cool. And about the Stompas - I just have over 20 of them and I'd like to use them  (although with the Zzap Upgrade they might be a bit OP, since they can also be garrisoned)

Cool, but not Garganty.

Point of clarification: wasn't the list actually "owned" by you by way of Epic:Mechanicum in the first place? The reason I ask is that means intrinsically the NetEA list is "borrowed" for lack of a better term or better put, it's a branched version. |

Just didn't work well focusing on just Stompaz, or maybe I was too stupid.

I borrowed it from NetEA, albeit I also wrote that list :-) |
