Hiyas, guys.. I've noticed the difficulty to field Amon at a 15pts scale... But do you guys have any suggestions in making a competitive list with him at 15pts?
So far the lists I made:
Amon
Repenter
Devout
Vanquisher
Choir min
Vassal
Amon
Reckoner
Vanquisher
Vassal
Choir
Wrack
Amon
Devout
Devout
Repenter
Repenter
Choir
Wrack
Any suggestions?

I would think a Vigilant would be good, as would a Dervish or two. Only problem is, if you want a Choir (and you do), that leaves you with 19 points to spend on Jacks/other support (after taking into account Amon's allocation). If you want a heavy, you only get 3 jacks (unless you do Crusader +2 4-point jacks). It's a tough choice. You could go
Amon +6
Dervish -5
Vigilant -4
Vigilant -4
Crusader -6
Min Choir -2
That's a lot of Arm 21, with the Crusader giving you the ability to hit things hard (great against Khador heavies), practically no blast damage getting through due to the Vigilants (important for the choir) plus the ability to two-hand throw, and some nasty mobility from the Dervish.

tzeentchling: Dervishes are only 4 points.
teos40k: I'd replace one of the Devouts in your second list with a Dervish to fill the choir out to full. 4 choir for 4 jacks means they're going to be a big assassination target. The two extra choirboys will help take the pressure off.
Are you expecting to face infantry swarms in this format? I would probably lean more towards:
Amon
Dervish
Dervish
Repenter
Devout
6x Choir
Wrack

Are you sure? I could have sworn my new cards said 5 for Dervishes. Repenters and Vigilants were 4, Dervishes and Devouts were 5, and Revengers and Redeemers were 6.

Nope, Dervishes are four making them great to place with Amon and easy to get more numbers.:Crit-Fire:

Nice. Then perhaps this list:
Amon
Dervish
Dervish
Vigilant
Crusader
Max Choir
I like the max choir, you don't have to be so careful, and if your opponent has blast weapons they can cluster around the Vigilant. Swap a Dervish for a Repenter if you expect infantry.

This is a variation to the list above I think id rather have a Repenter than a Vigilant.
Amon
Crusader
Dervish
Dervish
Repenter
Max Choir
