127 Ossrum1 HS vs Siege1 HM
17.10.2021
I realised that four out of the 12 registered players in the upcoming Steamroller will be Retribution players. Adding in two CG players this means that half the field will be one of those two factions. So I desperately need a plan for Issyria and Syvestro! I had a chat with a previous Mercs/Ret player and he suggested Gun Bunny spam. The main reason this list went away was Incorporeal spam and recursion in Ghost Fleet which isn’t as big of a problem anymore, so it might work. On the other hand there is a lot more ARM and general defensive tech in the meta these days so I might struggle to get through stuff like cloud walls (Goreshade4 / Lukas) and Warders, ARM 21 Railless etc.
This first test was against Siege1 which is another matchup that I anticipate will be difficult for me. But with Stryker1 as a likely Cygnar off-list I feel that this will be a tough match-up anyway so I may end up needing to figure out a way to play through this. My opponent wasn’t quite so pessimistic on my behalf since I have significant treat ranges and there is a lot of stuff to chew through.
