Transverse Enumerator

Those priests who dedicate themselves to creating and perfecting the Convergence’s weapons of war are known as transverse enumerators. These senior priests have an intimate grasp of design specifications, tolerances, and limitations which allow them to quickly adjust a unit’s tactics, even in the heat of action. Such masters can orchestrate the attacks of clockwork units with a precision that borders on the divine.

Thoughts on Transverse Enumerator

Transverse Enumerator in a nutshell

For 3 points the Transverse Enumerator adds some useful abilities to one of your units: Once per game rerolling all of a unit's rolls can be very helpful, a spray with continuous effect fire is nice and coordinated movement is great for unjamming as your models move through your allies.

Beyond that as another source of repair and with Iron Sentinel the Enumerator assists the staying power of your army.

Unit-specific bonuses

The Transverse Enumerator can pick up a few extra abilities depending on what unit she is attached to:

• In the Clockwork Legions theme, if she is added to a Perforators, Reciprocators, or Eradicators unit she will gain Vengeance.
• Perforators - She can gain the +2 damage Variable option, but she can't gain the Snipe Variable option (because Snipe doesn't work on sprays)
• Reciprocators - She can gain either Variable weapon option.
• Eradicators - She can gain either Variable weapon option.
• Obstructors - She can give the Shield Wall order, and benefit from it.
• Asphyxious4 - She gains Dark Shroud and is the unit commander even while Asphyxious is in play.

Combos & Synergies

• Anything she can repair. So, most of Convergence.
• Reductors can become really good at unjamming, moving through their allies to line up those sprays perfectly. And that's a lot of attacks possible on the mini-feat

• In Strange Bedfellows she can attach to ANY unit, meaning she can function as the leader to Thrall units such as McThralls and Soulhunters.
  • A max unit of Mechanithralls really like her CMD 9 and mini-feat, mostly due to the volume of attacks they make. Practiced Maneuvers is also good for making sure the Brute Thralls can get into combat without their little brothers accidentally blocking them.

• Asphyxious4 is a Convergence unit in any CoC theme thanks to the Partisan rule, so she can always attach to him.
  • The reroll mini-feat is especially powerful on a super "solo" like Gaspy.
  • Being able to repair him is also great to keep him alive longer.
  • Due to the wording of Malign Alignment she also gains Dark Shroud as part of his unit.

• Coordinated Movement allows for your screening unit to not block your own line of sight. Attach to Reciprocators and charge or shoot from behind them for extra safety.

Drawbacks & Downsides

• Iron Sentinel won't come up as often as you may think, since she is a unit attachment and doesn't hang out with warjacks much.

Tricks & Tips

• In Clockwork Legions Coordinated Movement can stack nicely with Vengeance moves, making it easier to bring your damaged medium-base troops into the range of your repair-er models.
• If running an Enumerator, leave her close to your Enigma Foundry. This both helps keep the Foundry alive by offering the chance to repair it, but also means you can lose your entire unit of infantry and still have the unit leader close enough that the Foundry can resurrect models in formation.
• This model is living: while it can repair the Foundry, the Foundry cannot repair it back. Plus, as a living model, debuffs that Convergence normally ignores (such as Ashen Veil) do apply to it.
