Thoughts on Reinholdt, Gobber Speculator

Reinholdt, Gobber Speculator in a Nutshell

Reinholdt is a favourite attachment of warcasters with a good gun. His ability to remove Stealth is great when it comes into play - which isn't every game. But an extra shot on a good gun can be an amazing benefit.

Because he is a gobber, he unlocks Malvin & Mayhem.

Combos & Synergies

Since theme Force restrictions make him unattractive outside of mercenaries he normally only shows up with Durgen or Crosse2 where all three of his abilities are optimal. Some like him with Ashlynn1 as well. You'll never see him otherwise.

Drawbacks & Downsides

• Unarmed.
• Despite having 5 boxes, his ARM is so low that even a below average damage roll from POW 10 will kill him.
• If you have a very mobile 'caster, you may find him out of position and effectively useless for a turn.
  • And if anything slows him down, the requirement for getting into 4" with your 'caster can similarly deny you a chance to use him.

Tricks & Tips

• Watch for stealth models. If there are none and your caster can shoot safely use reload. Lucky Charm is the third option usually used when Crosse2 activates Death Dealer.

Rinny, Gobber Speculator, Gencon exclusive

• Released way back in Warmachine: Prime (2003)
• Template:LES
• There are some interesting and hilarious implications with him reloading non-gun ranged attacks. He can squeeze more crows into Old Witch's hands, he can make Karchev slam his axe into the ground twice as fast to make twice as many fissures, etc
