Thanks for your opinion. I agree with you that unique mechanics are, what makes Malifaux an awesome game that I really enjoy. I might unintentionally have crossed a line while stating my opinion. Maybe my bad English or lack of experience created a misunderstanding.
I’ll leave Tara aside as she is (as the Mechanical Rider) clearly intended to do, what she does, as its printed on her card
No offence implied. I feel free to think, that there is a loop hole in the functioning of bonus actions and replacement effects, if you can break up and reform the coryphee the same turn. You clearly have deeper insights than me concerning the balancing of the models and this mechanic, so I will accept and wait for a possible FAQ.
Sidenote: 12 SS feels completely fine for a stat line with Df/ Mi 7 with nimble, agile and armour +2, even without shenanigans, but again, I may be mistaken. 🙂
