New Retribution Warjack… Aspis
June 24, 2011 by beerogre
If you've already got your hands on Wrath, then you'll have seen the Aspis. It's one of the slew of new warjacks for the Retribution of Scyrah.
It's a light warjack that packs a mighty punch and come with Shield Guard my favourite ability on any warjack... I'll be getting two of them!
Here's what PP have to say:
A marvel of Iosan force mastery, the Aspis is an unmistakable sight on the battlefield. The myrmidon is equipped to manipulate its own protective field dynamically and can catch bullets with it before they strike. A stalwart guardian of its controlling warcaster, the Aspis can smash even the largest enemies backward with blows of its force-enhanced fists to keep its master safe from harm.
What do you think guys?
How many of you are Anime Elf... erm... Retribution players?
hmmm i dont know what to say about this… kind of anorexic lookin 😮
mmm… I know this guy…
Its Lebowski !
As a Ret player I must say I’m dissapointed as I was hoping for a resin multi-kit for all these new light jacks. If they had changed the design a lot then maybe it could be justified, but besides the head and bowling balls its pretty much a Chimera.
Still, its a damn good jack in game, so that and Wyshnalyrr will be picked up asap (Rahn + 1 free upkeep… mmmm)
A mate of mine loves him some elves, i think they are some of the worst sculpts in the pp range…nb not the worst just mostly not to my taste. To sci fi vs rest of range but i guess thats the point. Parts of this mini are very nice and the pose has a bit of a dynamic movement to my eyes but it just doent look right.
At least pp are realising stuff for the pointy eared ones
Never really got into the RET jacks. They look too much like some Gundam models I’ve seen. Not the best art direction imo.
they look pretty generic …like alot of curves but not much of a direction
i actually like those rune balls its holding. dont know much about warmahordes, but does it throw them?
BOWLING BALL FISTS O’ DOOM!!! I love it 😀
Thats one great looking and stylish warjack.
I think that this is a brilliant looking mini, and it’s got some decent rules to boot! The forthcoming Ret Myrmidons all look ace, and it’ll be interesting to see the increased ability for conversions now that the range is expanding.
on the resin/plastic comment while it would be nice to have a resin/plastic multikit for the lights it would be around 35 USD to make one jack and then the cost of the magnets when you get down to it as of right now it makes more sense for them to follow suit with them as the other light jacks and make them single resin/plastic kits for 20 USD and make it where you can pick up the one you want/need
“How many of you are Anime Elf… erm… Retribution players?” Implying that GW havn’t been Anime Elfing for the last 20 years.
I like the name of that faction, but i read that they sucked so i picked up khador instead.
It’s innovative. They’ve mixed anime with Victorian with something else entirely.. I love it, although to be fair it is too much like the other light jacks, they should have changed it up a bit for house Vyre…
