Armorbane - worth its weight in gold. Seeing this guy come down on the other side of the table is going to be a pain.

Armorbane is great, though this unit's weak defenses mean the opponent will likely be gunning for it early.

True, but then the opponent is not gunning for something else :P. Make the decision as painful for him as possible, so that no matter what is chosen, it seems like its lose-lose. Keep some shields on hand for this guy maybe too,

I think it depends on the deck. With lots of shields or FWE (Tau splash) around you can keep it alive. It's also a great first striker when you have initiative (potentially combined with Eldar's Ranged options), and with Empower it's that little bit harder to kill. It's also a perfect target for Gift of Isha, as it gets to hit and then doesn't care about being killed.

Its also a target for Earth Caste Technician, if you're playing Tau allies. It can also accept an Ion Rifle, and though that's a lot of eggs in one basket the potential of Armourbane 7 is seriously scary.

Great card, 4/5, in special a fantastic target for Gift of Isha.

Huge sinergy with Gift of Isha, Banshee Power Sword, Ion Rifle, Technician, a great card overall. Sadly it has only 2HP.

4/5

Scary dude, your opponent must present an answer for this and that's good for a three-coster.

 

4/5
