Good list against Retribution of Scyrah

[Atlantean]

I am looking to put together a few lists for play against RoS. I want to have a 15, 25, and 35 point list. We will probably use the Steamroller 2010 scenarios to play.

Here is what I have so far:

pMagnus
Renegade x 2
Mangler
Buccaneer
Mule
Freebooter
Vanguard
Gorman Di Wolfe

I know I need to look at some infantry as well as a few more solos. I am more than willing to run a different caster than pMagnus as well (maybe Bart or whoever else does well against RoS).

Has anyone had a lot of experience against RoS and how have they faired with Mercs? I was looking at the RoS book and cards that my opponent has and they have some interesting spells for knockdowns and moving of models.

Thanks

Ret infantry is ugly up close, I think you could do a lot worse than have a unit of Snipe'd Long Gunners to fix their wagon from good distance. You can take them in pMagnus theme force, which conveniently makes your Obliterators cost 5 points each.

If you want highborn, there was a long-ish thread for their counter-Retribution tactics in the merc forum, in which case you should probably rely on gun mages and nyss hunters to thin out their troops.

I feel that Retribution jacks are less scary when they don't have a lot of infantry support. You can single them out and kill them easily enough, just focus and don't let them get back up and regenerate the shields.

Take lots of AOEs. Retribution can put together lists where almost everything has Stealth. Magnus's Snipe is useless if you're going to auto-miss. Retribution stealth models have very low army so blast damage from AOE can easily kill them. Get Master Gunner Dougal.

Most of them ignore blast damage too (not usually the same models thankfully).

Thanks for the posts so far guys. I will check out the Merc Community forum for the Ret thread.

I know he has a unit of the Battle Mages and he was talking about Garryth and I saw him painting Rahn.

Anyone have some more specific help on what I would take for a 15, 25, or 35 point list?
