| |
| === {{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
| |
| The Gorax is a cheap light warbeast that brings the Primal Animus, allowing Circle warbeasts to mangle armour. Every Circle player should own one - the animus is just that useful on a light warbeast.
| |
|
| |
| Many people refer to the Gorax as an ‘animus bot’ meaning that transfers and a cast of Primal are its key functions rather than getting stuck in and using those fists, and for the most part they are right. It’s accuracy is poor, it’s fists won’t crack armour and it’s the only circle Warbeast without pathfinder so you can trip yourself up with poor order of activations if you have a way to make forests. Pain Response is your key incentive for throwing the Warbeast into the fray in the late game as free charges are nothing to be sniffed at.
| |
|
| |
| === Combos & Synergies ===
| |
| * [[Riphorn Satyr]] is a good Primal target, and less of a loss than a warpwolf when trading it.
| |
| * [[Kromac, Champion of the Wurm|Kromac 2]] lets the Gorax cast primal for free with Awakened Spirit. A circle warbeast with primal on feat turn will have a massive +3 STR, as well as (effective) +3 MAT against any target in Kromacs 14 inch command range. Up to 4 beasts can easily be put under primal in one turn between the gorax and kromac.
| |
| * Primal does wonders for low strength lights like Griffons who are cheap enough to be relatively disposable after being targeted with primal
| |
| ** This is especially true with [[Una the Skyhunter|Una 2]], since flank, hand of fate, and primal means griffons are hitting like heavies.
| |
| * [[Tanith the Feral Song|Tanith]] can throw out primals for 1 fury on her feat turn, allowing her to send in a ton of buffed up beasts, and still possibly camp some.
| |
| * [[Mohsar]] can use maltreatment on the Gorax after it casts its animus to set up pain response next turn and to get an extra point of fury.
| |
| * A Gorax is pretty much an auto-include in the beast heavy Wild Hunt Theme. Only pass up on it if you want a feral Warpwolf instead, although the 8 point difference is enough that taking the gorax nets you an extra light and a Gallows Grove or War Wolf
| |
|
| |
| === Drawbacks & Downsides ===
| |
| * Mostly just an animus on a stick.
| |
| * Without it’s animus it will struggle to hit basic infantry and is unlikely to scratch heavies
| |
| * Does nothing for Wolds
| |
| * it is the only circle Warbeast without pathfinder or a way to navigate terrain
| |
| * Low charge range of 8.5 means that most other models in the game out threat a Gorax
| |
| * it can be played with [[Dr Arkadius]] - but you have little reason to when the [[Battle Boar]] has the same threat range, animus, cost, +1 armour, +1 threshold and a conditional berserk and overtake Vs free charges and power attacks when damaged.
| |
|
| |
| === Tricks & Tips ===
| |
| * Remember it can two handed throw people.
| |
| * Pain Response only requires a single box be filled. You can have your warlock put an unboosted melee swing into it if they aren't very strong.
| |
| * After the 10/2021 change to Primal (the target beast does not auto-frenzy) there is no reason anymore not to use primal if you can afford the 2 fury cost.
