D_acolyte Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I love Mie and most of her models, I just can not stand the look of the Rail Golem. In my ARCs I use the steamborg executioner but what is a good replacement for it in 10 thunders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiralngCadavr Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Well, are you taking Kang already? I think he packs a strong punch even without his support. Otherwise, Izamu is the obvious choice... but I think that TT can get by pretty well with a few medium-weight pieces instead of a heavy, since they have so many strong options in the middle cost range. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_acolyte Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I almost always take Kang. Did not think about Izamu. This is about the core of my Mie 10T crew for right now with models that are out. Sometimes I add in Wily, illuminated, oiran or rail workers. I am waiting for the tengu, komainu and lone swordsman. I have Mr. Graves but have not used him with her. I am thinking of swapping Yamaziko for something else. In a 50 pt game this leaves 19 15 stones depending on the catch I want to buy other models/upgrades with.

SpiralngCadavr Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 For middle weight, I really like the versatility of Illuminated, and am a fan of Toshiro's summons.Graves is nice, but I'd still consider him solidly middle, not nearly durable or strong enough to be ranked with guys like Howard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_acolyte Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Yes, there is a lot of good middle ground guys and very few heavy hitters. Middle ground is good but sometimes you just need someone dead. I have not seen much on an alternative for the Rail Golem or for Ama No Zako and Fuhatsu in Mie's crew.

SpiralngCadavr Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Yep, I agree that TT is pretty limited on the strong side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_havoc Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Dawn Serpent works well as it gives out6 burning and the like. Also the High River Monks are prettygood too as they also give out burning. Fuhatsu combo'd with a Metal Gamin is also pretty great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiralngCadavr Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hmm, hadn't thought of Fuhatsu, good call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Well Mei can take the Rail Golem in 10T and it's definitely worth it but Izamu is a solid model with tonnes of defensive options and he hits like a truck so my vote goes there. Failing that you could always look for an alternative model to use instead of the Wyrd Rail Golem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Man I LOVE the Rail Golem. Wasn't so keen on him at first but once I got it I was in love. You could proxy with any Warjack from Privateer Press if you needed to. D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Possibly this could work as a Rail Golem proxy: D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could proxy with any Warjack from Privateer Press if you needed to. D. I was in the same boat, I wasn't a massive fan of the model but I bought him for Hoffman because I wanted an alternative to the Peacekeepr (Which I'm still waiting on a plastic for! ) and now I love the Rail Golem model. As for the Warjacks there are a few factions I'd avoid. Cryx for example doesn't really mesh with the 10T theme bearing in mind they are necrotic machines, Protectorate of Menoth is also plastered with religious iconography, Retribution of Scyrah and Convergence of Cyriss are also not great factions for Rail Golem proxies. Khador, Mercs and Cygnar have some great options for a Rail Golem proxy though and are well worth a look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 This one is going to be my proxy (KS stuff should be sent in December and the regular release early next year): 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiralngCadavr Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Nice alternative... not a fan of the huge smokestack, but the rest is solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
