I've been playing Karchev the Terrible mostly in Mark 2. Karchev is my favorite caster in Warmachine, even in Mark 1 when he wasn't that great. What can I say, I just love cyborgs. Him being Khadoran is just icing on the cake.
Had a game against JM last Saturday at Atty. Dex' place. I brought my fun jack heavy Karchev 35 point list. It's comprised of:
Karchev
Beast
Berserkers x2
Drago
Kodiak
Wardog
Karchev won in turn 3 by assassinating JM's pSkarre. Now JM is a relatively new player so it's more I had an advantage in numbers of games played. Still and all I am enjoying Karchev and in the games that I lost against experienced players like Monroe and EJ, it all came down to me missing a couple of hits against the opposing caster or lock.
Will still be playing him the next couple of months though I might use Vlad or Butcher to break the monotony. Karchev ain't the terrible warcaster no more.
