hello guys (sorry for the bad spelling up front) i have been playing kahdor and i lvoe Ebutcher as i have said plenty of times. i am however starting to relise that whenever i play game with somebody they know what i run and allways bring a counter like harvitch teir 4 or just light infantry shredders. so i have decided to branch out to be more competitive. here is my model count so far. im puting a * next to all modle i have pick up and not used et. pick them up this weeked
or haven't had very much play experience
Casters
P and E Sorsha*
P and E butcher
Old witch
Harvatich*
P iursk*

Warjacks
Black ivan
Destroyer
Juggs
2x Kodiaks

Units
5 units of doomrevers (lots of experience)
2 greylord escorts
min mekaniks
full man-o-war demo corps
widdowmakers*
greylord ternions*
2x WG morter crew*
Solos
man hunter
Yuri the axe
koden Lord*
kell baloch*
war dog

i say all this for advise. what should i buy next? i have been looking at WG but i have a hatred for them but i think i might have to suck it up get them. i have ben trying to find better units for Iursk and E sorsha because doomrevers and man-0-wars do not go well with them as i have found out well in the past. any idea on what i should get from jacks to units to solos. im realy not interested in any new casters any help would be greatly needed

I appreciate your apology for your spelling, but I'd appreciate a bit more effort more. ;) Your errors are all over the place and completely inconsistent, so I'm sure you can do better if you want.

That said and nagging aside, here are some suggestions on what to look at next.

Casters:
Your selection is wide enough. Assassination runs with pSorscha, attrition/grind with Irusk/eSorscha, scenario wins with the Old Witch, jack-heavy with Harkevich, I-don't-need-an-army-to-kill-everything with the Butcher. Not that you shouldn't look at other casters, but becoming an expert at playing a couple of the ones you have first would be a good idea.

Jacks:
a reach jack, so Beast 09 or a Spriggan; if you can wait you may want to hold out for the second plastic heavy jack kit (Spriggan/Devastator/Demolisher), but then I'd advise getting a clamjack (Devastator or Demolisher) soon as well.
the Behemoth. 'Cause it's the Behemoth.

Units:
anything high-DEF, to use with Iron Flesh. That means Kayazy Assassins or Nyss Hunters. Maybe you hate the looks of all our high-DEF infantry (these two or the WGI), but you should really get at least one of these units. Most, if not all, factions are getting more options to deal with high-DEF infantry but it's still a defining trait for Khador. If you get the Nyss, get Valachev as well. If you get the Assassins, definitely get the UA (the Underboss) as well.
If you're up for replacing the pikes, IFP are pretty decent as well although on the whole I like using them with casters you don't have more than with the ones you do.

Solos:
Saxon Orrik (he's a minion, not a merc, in case you can't find his rules). Absolutely indispensible for me since he's one of our few options for giving infantry units Pathfinder (the only option for several casters).

I'd also suggest Gorman di Wulfe, both Eirysses, Lady Aiyana & Master Holt and if you're looking at using pIrusk a lot, Reinholdt, but these are really more power options than models you "need" to build concept lists.

I don't really have anything to add, I just wanted to say, Holy crap 5 units of Doomreavers!? Talk about a glass cannon :)
