What do you think the the five worst figures in uprising are?

Ill start off with...

5 Succubus- Defence Attack and Speed arent that bad, but magic freeze oh joy! 

4 Vampiric Thrall Over priced when you could just throw in a rancid bloodsucker. Too bad they’re not in production any more.

3 Amotep Maiden- Just a cruddy overpriced non-mounted Scorpem Gunner!

2 Xandressan Diver, I don’t see any use for this figure. Could be used for a harasser mabey.

1 Steam Gunner, Bad range bad attack, there are better BPRs for about the same price.

i think dwraven thunder gunner ihate them i take them outside with a can of wd40 and lighter. and poof

DOD Master, what about Spirit taker. They are absolutely terrible.

Anything with 270 degree front arc and nimble(STEPPE RANGER, YEE-UCH!).

5 best
1. Magus Anendue
2. Shield Golem
3. Darq the Corrupt
4. Whelp Monk
5. Whelp Alchemist

YA!!!

You guys are forgetting orc blaster.

Sadly, the figures that really, really suck, have good sculpts.

Steam Gunner is one of the few that I can say under no circumstances will be superior to anything else.

Amotep Maiden, yes, is like a Scorpem... With two shots F/L! me likes the *** One, and the LE.

in the post about the sheid golem, they mantiond putting some blade golems around the sheild golems. most people from what i understand didn't see why and said just put a big expencive peice by it with a good attack. well I think I know why they said put them together.

1.you can put four BG'S around a shield golem and it will not go over 200 points if you play it right.
2.you can have a SG/BG formation go up to another formation with out bieng hit for a while becuase from a range youd have to get a 22 then you could smack people with fourmore often.
3. sheid and sowrds go together right.:p

sorry i was trying to make a new thread. that is tottaly of the subject.

actually what's wrong with the Amotep Maiden, she has an effective 13in-14in range with 2 targets and 9-10 attack, couple her with a couple of longbows and a standard bearer you then have a great softener for your KI beatdown squads

and the piper what's wrong with the Shyft Piper, the weak one is only 3 more points more than the weak Heart Seeker, and he gets aquatic and MC to boot and the tough gets dodge for only 9 points more and now it allows you to use your deep spawn lizard men and shelled ones more effectively

Vampric Thrall comparing it to the rancid, it survives 2or 3 clicks longer than the rancid has better stats on the way down and let's not forget that it also has regen on it's last 2 clicks, no demoralizing and all for an average of 5 points over the rancid and you only lose flight ,which while being a good ability it's not something to cry over

steppe rangers ,just how is this a bad fig?????? so what is has nimble and 270 arc, BFD, it's only 5 points more than it's pure BPR counterpart and 9 points more than it's pure OR counterpart (Galeshi Dervish and Emissary if you were wondering) and the stats are comparable

Steam Gunner, yes it has a low range and an 8 attack but compared to other BPR figs in the price range, it's not that bad, only one click of demo and FLAME/LIGHTING,and Psionystic it easily replaces the Khamsin Fuser,which is also the only figure the same price range(boomers are a tad more expensive for me to consider them)

Succubus- what's wrong with magic freeze? (and you should know the new rules by now.)

Xandrissen Diver- reasonably priced harasser and capturer

but the thing i've noticed with all this "bad" figs is that they're best used in formations(and if you say that's the mark of a bad fig then the E@A sucks too)

#1 Steam Gunner
#2 * Fuser Orc
#3 Vampiric thrall
#4 *** Mage stone knight, he is way to over costed and can't move worth a ***.
#5 Half orc Hatcheter really hate this guy.

Spirit Taker* is a pretty nice piece. For 18 points you get a quick harraser with somewhat of a first strike (sneak attack) and the ability to do 4 damage. With rear arc bonus you have a 9 attack which is mediocre, but hey its 18 points!

I'm pretty openminded about Uprising. There are only 2 figures that I see as having no redeeming qualities.
#1 Shyft Piper - why have AQ when I can have FM with a Bondmaker and as an added bonus he has defend and not MC(great ability) with 6" range (horrible for a ranged figure)
#2 Xandressan Diver - these figures make no sense to me at all. I'd much rather play an Utem Guardsman*** or even a ** or * Guardsman. So they have AQ. This has never been an amazing ability and it certainly hasn't become broken with this release.

That said, I think that most of the other figures will find their way into some useful armies, whether they be theme armies or tourney armies. I do take objection to the notion that Amotep Maiden is no good. I'm sure many players will find uses for it. However much I want to compare Steam Gunners to Khamsin Fusers, I still end up comparing them to Amotep Gunners. For 1 pt more than the ***Steam Gunner, I can have a **Amotep Gunner which is superior in nearly every way and is still by far inferior to the ***Gunner.

Easy, no

red specter, yeah but the bond maker can't lurk in deep water and as far as the gunners go, while yes it is better, it's not BPR
