Sinister and Versatile!

Posted by AJR on 16th Mar 2012

I got my Reanimation Dials a few weeks ago and have had time to use them in a few games. They are amazing. They look fantastic - slick and sinister and dripping with robotic flavor. They tend to get a lot of positive comments and attention from new opponents.

I used them with my Necron army as Entropic strike counters (sometimes), but primarily as Reanimation markers. her is why I find them better than just lying your models down:
1) Serves as a strong visual reminder to do something with that unit. Lying down models in rubble or buildings get forgotten and easy to miss rolls.
2) Serves as a reminder that returning models don't have to stand up right where they died. Reanimation lets you pull back from assaulting armies, or get one guy closer to an objective. The marker helps make that clear and reminds both you and your opponent.
3) Saves you tipping over your models all over the place and keeps the battlefield tidy. Especially since half or more won't be coming back anyway.
4) They look awesome - and who doesn't like pimping their favorite army out!

Overall I think they're fantastic, and the magnet link/turning system works really well as well!
