Cryx might be the main "evil" power in Warmachine, but they sure get some cool kit! Andy and Darrell take a look at the Cryx Plastic Warjack kit that makes the Desecrator, Harrower & Leviathan.

Not that it REALLY matters, but yet again you have missed to actually show the under cam shots.
But I built one of those kits and from what I’ve heard about the metal kit its a HUGE improvement as I put mine together very easy.
Sadly never got a chance to actually try the Jack out but I’ll eventually get round to it.
@whiteyin sorry about that, that’s the video fixed now.

For what it’s worth, none of these are outright bad, they just don’t slot in to the cryxian way of battle intuitively. Cryx have very few ranged weapons though and these three jacks bring some of the best in the faction without losing a whole lot of melee punch. Immunity to knockdown and pathfinder on this chassy is very good as a whole. I haven’t seen the desiccator yet since the kit is still rather new, but it seems like a nice skirmishing jack. Scather cannot be underestimated as a form of protection: shoot your own corrosion-immune model and it… Read more »
1. Thank you for the video. It was very entertaining and informative. 2. As usual I don’t have cards/force book to hand but I THINK with Soul Taker the Harrower does indeed take souls as you said, but they do not convert to focus. Which is good. Focus cannot be retained from turn to turn, but Soul tokens can. I think the maximum it can retain is three. Apologies if I am mistaken. Once it gets soul tokens it should be devastating to enemy infantry but in action I find it tends not to do so well. That could just… Read more »
The leviathan is awesome with Mortenebra. Just park it in front of her and have it use all her focus for a load of boosted shots.
All in all though, the harrower has the most uses. I hate playing against that guy.
They are all lovely models but I am not feeling any of them game play wise and I have never played a game using deep water so there amphibious ability seems mainly redundant.
I have the harrower, atleast the metal version which is loaded full of pins and still rocks a bit. However, It is beast at 10 points when playing against heavy unit based lists. Doesnt matter the faction it clears things up nicely . I would always make it one of my first wave of money jacks. Right next to the death jack they play nice together and both create there own focus so I can tend to my second wave assault, focus wise.
