I need to pick out a unit for my Minion slot, Any suggestions for this? Where can I get the best bang for my buck. Also, any suggestions to the list? I'm going to give it a go pretty soon here like at least by the weekends end.

Thanks in advance for ANY help!

Gatormen! As I said in the community forums, Gatormen are great with the Task Master.

Bog Trogs! They bounce onto the board from wherever, and you can arc spells through them.

And Swamp Gobbers! Cheapest Minion unit, and quite handy for Fats McFatty.

BB is not 11 points.

I haven't got the book so I might be wrong in that Fatty increases points cost for them :) I suspect you added instead of subtracting.

I'm liking the Bog Trog idea. Much fun to be had there and cheap as chips. But they get tied up by their reach really easily so you'd need to be careful if you want to arc.

Actually, I've been heavily considering a Rasheth list, myself (going for tier 3/4 by 35 points in Genesis event)...

I'm not sure if I want Krea for a slim def/arm boost against ranged, or a Brute for a total negation of a RA.

? you can arc if you are engaging but not if you are engaged so reach is fine - see Lancer ;)

Alright I played a game with him with the following list:

Fats
Gladiator
Cannoner
Bronzeback
Krea
Paingiver taskmaster
Max nihilators
3x agonizer
max gatormen
min paingivers



It was against Sloan and I wound up winning, he is alot better than I gave him credit for after seeing his rules for the first time

I may the trogs a few times, I also would like to explore the idea of a titan sentry but I like the shooting option that the cannoner has.

I'm looking forward to playing with the "big lad", whilst he might not stack up as a beat face caster he does let Skorne operate in a completely different way without buying a whole new army. Plus he (and the taskmaster) are encouraging me to look at my minions again. Even bone grinders are useful as arcnodes (in addition to their other useful attributes).

Fats
Gladiator
Cannoner
Bronzeback
Krea
Paingiver taskmaster
Max nihilators
3x agonizer
max gatormen
min paingivers

I have to say, that list rocks some SERIOUS ***. I'm a big fan BOY of that PHAT BOY!

[Lord of Cthul]

Why thank you sir. I'm looking to do Hardcore or Adepticon or some big tourney with this list or some variation of it. I must admit I was a nay sayer of the lard a$$ but he's grown on me, So I'll eat my words while he eats his eye balls and admit, I LOVE his rules. Can't wait to play some more with him and see what little tricks I can find to do.

Or Revenger in my case. I often get confuzzled with that one (as do my opponents). Still going to try the Trogs. Fish Men FTW.

Played a game with LArd-o-boy this weekend.

Fats
BB
Gladiator
Sentry
Paingiver BH (Min)
Pret Swords (Max)
Agoniser
Feralgeist
Void Spirit.

Got so many things wrong it wasn't funny but (despite losing to Epic Doomy and his Maulers of, well, Doom) I really see a lot of promise with the big boy. Agonisers make a great back up node in a pinch and Swordsmen are awesome with Carnivore on in feat turn. Got fats up from 2 damage left to 18 in one round :).

[Razhem]

To those packing a Krea, I'd suggest to take a thrullg and swamp gobbers, will give the fatman some protection too and you get a wonderful anti magic piece that can disrupt.

[Lord of Cthul]

No can do on that replacement for me. Breaks mah Tier mang.

But I do like the idea, I just want a tier list that I can pull out and whomp some people with, I HAVE to get more practice with gators to know if I want trogs instead, which thinking about it I like the gators ALOT more. I can arc and not hate myself for it. I can take some damage and deal with it. And I can do some MAJOR damage with EACH of them, opposed to having to combine with the trogs.

[Grønlykke]

What about something like this - I know it is 50 points:
Rasheth(-5)
Bronzeback(9) for tier
Gladiator(7) for tier
Gladiator(7) for tier
Gatormen (9)
Gatormen (9)
2xPaingiver Task Master(4)
2x Agonizer(4)
Min Paingiver Beasthandlers(2)
Gobbers (1)
Magic Pigs (3)
Two units of Gatormen(Tough and no KD) in front of the two agonizers should be pretty nasty... and the there are the three titans as 2. wave and protection.

[strangedane]

Doesn't anyone like ventaors with this guy? He turns a 2 man CRA into a PS 16 on feat turn against large bases, 18 if blood mark is on the target too!

[Critical]

I'm running him with smoke gobbers. 1 pt and you get two high def models sneak into range to arc with.

Still amazed that the sentry does not have shield guard. I would think it required really to stop fast movers from getting into melee with myers.
