Theme Forces
Thoughts on Sorscha0
Sorscha0 in a Nutshell
Kovnik Apprentice Kratikoff is Boundless Charge on a stick and as such, she is all about threat extention. Since Boundless is not an upkeep it can be stacked with any other movement buffs your actual warcaster can provide. She also provides concealment via Fog of War for some protection against shooting. Additionally, she keeps your Winter Guard on their feet and, most importantly, runs a jack for you.
Combos & Synergies
Sorscha0 is a buffbot that hands out benefits to jacks and Winter Guard alike that can be futher stacked with other buffs from solos or Casters.
- Kovnik Jozef's ability to hand out tough stacks nicely with her No Sleeping ability.
- Fog of War is great to keep models alive on the way in. It stacks nicely with spells such as Iron Flesh on the units you want protected.
- Butcher1 and Old Witch1 both hand out Iron Flesh.
- Since it is not upkept on them, Fog of War is one of the rare buffs for Doom Reavers. You'll have to play out of theme though.
- Old Witch1 also especially benefits from Fog of War since it triggers her Prowl and Apparition and Gallows can act as a pseudo threat extender on top of Boundless.
- Any caster with movement buffs will appreciate the extra 2" from Boundless since it can, depending on the caster, push threat ranges to ludicrous levels. There include:
- Harkevich with Mobility.
- Butcher3 with Energizer, Vengeance and Impending Doom.
- Irusk2 also with Energizer.
- Malakov2 with Escort (also his Sneak battle plan stacks nicely with Fog of War).
- Kozlov with his feat and he himself has Sidestep
- Karchev's Road to War.
- Strakhov1 with his feat, Superiority and Overrun.
- Irusk1 also with Superiority
- Strakhov2 with Quicken.
- Jacks in WGK can also have Advance Move which up their threat ranges yet again.
- Malakov1 forms quite the dynamic duo with her in either theme, since they can stack Redline and Boundless on any targetable jack without any input from your caster.
Sorscha0's battlegroup
- A Rager is a cheap shield guard. Which is what every journeyman loves.
- The Berserker is the cheapest jack you can put on her if you want to save points.
- Beast-09 can actually be taken in Winter Guard Kommand under her.
Drawbacks & Downsides
- She's essentially just a buffbot and as such contributes little to the fight herself. You'll have to keep her far back.
- Fog of War and No Sleeping are different ranges, so you need to keep track of that.
Tricks & Tips
Remember Fog of War affects enemy models too. Although it's not a huge problem, because of her smaller control range.

Trivia
- Released at LVO (2019.02)
