Did somebody cough?

Well you did estimate OOE like 200 points over so I was not super confident in your assessment.

Reeval OOE!

Old One Eye is getting out played by her grandson.

Feeling better now. You really need to go at Golgotha will SAs if possible or that armour is brutal especially when juiced by Cap.

The movement is a big negative especially against range but I found you can send in the Cursed Earth T-Rex to engage and take the heat.

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: He is very solid in certain match-ups. The Dinos were hot most of the games rolling some incredible attacks.

Golgotha makes for a nice leader of the Cursed Earth T-Rex and fits in pretty well with the faction overall. His lower movement is of considerable note as it does cause him to lumber forth and pick his way across the map.

His armour is downright scary against lesser opponents but is shredded by powerful special attacks.

GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: Looking forward to seeing how it plays for others. The Dinos are tricky as they take up so much map space and make it difficult to physically place them where you want. Pretty fun though as they take their foes apart in chunks.
Tail Swipe had limited use but it is nice to have when the opportunity arises.
All in all the dinosaur faction is shaping up.

How to Paint Tutorial

Spoiler Alert!

Start silver or other metal looking color and lay down the base armour. Remember to get under the chin and the whole chest down to the lower belly. Follow the contours and seams of the figure where you can.


For the eye, I started out by filling it in with red and then a black slit in the middle.


Then fill in around that with black.


If you want you can add a skull to the top of his head. I used a sticker.


Paint the upper leg and hip area black.



Then add a skull. You can try freehand or go for the sticker.





That should do it. A little touch up and a spray coat of sealant and you are ready for battle.
