=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}}=
==={{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
Pure melee vector, Inverter serves as a whacking cudgel. It's main weapon, meteor hammer, puts on the hurt, yet its sub-weapon(or main-main weapon), macropummeler, means business with the highest unassisted P+S in the game not on a huge base. Guaranteeing a Knockdown, macropummeler makes your opponent stay out of Inverters way, or they will have a hard time bringing it down.
 
===Combos & Synergies===
Slow but faithful, Inverter is beloved by two melee casters, [[Axis, The Harmonic Enforcer|Axis]] and [[Father Lucant, The Divinity Architect|Lucant]]. Both of them can buff Inverter significantly, and the latter is in no need of Inverter's cousin [[Conservator]]. So they all love 1 or 2 Inverters in their list.
 
The Inverter can also find a place with [[Aurum Lucanum Athanor Locke]] as it fits her mixed melee and ranged vector style.
 
'''[[Axis, The Harmonic Enforcer]]''' :
* His Field Marshal gives it [[Countercharge]]. While it is fun to see a boosted Macropummeler punching the unlucky victim and knocking them down during their ''own'' activation, it is sometimes better to just whack it with Meteor hammer and save the Single Shot weapon for your own turn.
* [[Iron Aggression]] increases its efficiency to awesome levels. Start the game with IA in place, and your opponent will have a hard time dealing with boosted Macropummeler hits.
* His feat can give Inverter a much needed speed boost.
* Stack his feat with [[Unstoppable Force]] and [[Onslaught]] and you get a high SPD vector with pathfinder that can bulldoze off any intervening models, charges for free, and brings a colossal-level chain weapon with boosted attack roll. Who wouldn't want that? Your opponent, for starters.
 
'''[[Father Lucant, The Divinity Architect]]''' : Lucant makes great use of Inverter's solid armor. As his field marshal is useless for [[Conservator]], it is common to see Lucant playing multiple Inverters.
* Inverter makes an excellent watcher target. Let them come near your 'Caster, and see Inverter dash in with a fully-boosted Macropummeler hit.
* His feat, Clockwork Reinforcement, takes Inverter's armor to ridiculous levels. They will need more than a charge to take out feated Inverter, otherwise they will be crushed.


'''[[Aurum Lucanum Athanor Locke]]''' : Locke has a feat that makes the inverted harder to take out and a field marshal that lets it select what branch to damage.
==Errata==
* with Redline the Macropummeler becomes Pow22 which is frightening if she casts engine of destruction and makes the inverter Mat9
No Errata specifically for this model.  
* road to war helps mitigate its weaker speed with redline that is 5” extra movement and a free charge.


===Drawbacks & Downsides===
== Changes and Updates ==
* Slow, which isn't good for a melee-only heavy.
* Macropummeler is only once per round, so a countercharge or a free strike with it means you can't use it during your next activation.
* anti knockdown tech is quite prevalent.


===Tricks & Tips===  
===Mk3 to Mk4===
* Always lead with the Macropummeler. Not only is it the stronger weapon, knocking down your target makes it easier for the rest of your attacks to hit.
** For that reason, it's often worth boosting the attack roll even if it's a near-certain hit.
