Grissel 50pt Backup Tourney List

[bakaryu]

Ok so my Borka 50pt list has emerged as a solid front runner candidate and I have spent weeks going over different possibilities for my second list for the 2day tournament I have coming up on 8th May and I think I have found the list I want to run with:

Grissel Bloodsong (-5)
>> Mulg the Ancient (12)
>> Earthborn Dire Troll (10)
>> Pyre Troll (5)
5 Long Riders (11)
6 Kriel Warriors (4)
>> Standard and Piper (2)
>> 3 Caber Throwers (3)
Krielstone Bearer and 5 Scribes (4)
>> Stone Scribe Elder (1)
Stone Scribe Chronicler (2)
Swamp Gobber Bellows Crew (1)

The Plan
Designed primarily around the ability to dish out heavy firepower anywhere its needed, the Caber Throwers are easily capable of two POW18 MAT7 attacks each with auto knockdown against large bases, the Long Riders are similarly capable of clearing large groups of infantry, while the EBDT and Mulg are easily capable of crushing heavies with attacks to spare and thanks to Hallowed Avenger Mulg serves as a deterrent against charging his screening infantry.

More so than my Borka list however, this one is built around being able to take and hold scenario objectives such as Mosh Pit and No Man's Land thanks to the extreme mobility granted by Grissel's feat.

I too am going to build a Grissel list for my back-up tournament list. Using her for more scenario play and the like for a 50 point SR2010 coming up.

Grissel +5
-Earthborn -10
-Bouncer -5
-Mauler -9
Full kriel warriors -6
-2x caber tossers -2
-standard and piper -2
Krielstone bearer and 5 scribes -4
-elder -1
5 Long riders -11
Horthol -5

The plan is to use the kriels as a screen for the beasts that are going to move right up the front. Then the riders are going to take a side and hoof it and claim an opponents flank. Then its hammer and anvil for the scenario.

The other option I have is to rock a 2 units of champions list.
Grissel Bloodsong +5
-Troll Axer -6
-Dire Troll Mauler -9
-Earthborn Dire Troll -10
Krielstone Bearer and 5 Stone Scribes43
-Krielstone Stone Scribe Elder1
Trollkin Champions (Leader and 4 Grunts)10 -6
Trollkin Champions (Leader and 4 Grunts)10 -6
Troll Whelps -2
Trollkin Champion Hero -3

The plan here is to brick up and beat face. Go after the heavy hitters first. Keep the mauler in the back for his animus. MAYBE trade the mauler and the hero for Mulg, then the axer for the slag. The mauler's animus is much better than the slags here and Mulg's animus does nothing. Rush will be a big help here too. Rush + earthborn with hoof it = 21" move, 23 if I can jog between rough terrain. that will get him into my opponents back arc.
