25 Point Tourny, what to bring?

[DBG]

Event Description: "MkII WM/Hordes Flashpoint 25pt

Three ways to win! Prizes to the player with:

The most captured flags

The most killed characters

The most table defenses this is the total (not consecutive)

The best painted caster.

First round is a standard battle with Caster kill.

The winner of that game becomes the defender. The table terrain is reset and flags are added. After that it is like Stampede (no timers)."

I have available-
Casters: Reznik, p Kreoss, p sevy, e Feora
Jacks: crusader, vanquisher, devout, repenter, revenger, redeemer
units: 5 choir, 6 zealots, 5 bastions
solos: none
Any advice would be great as this is my first event and have no idea what to bring. A 'few' purchases can be suggested.

If you would like a nice fire-themed efeora list i would go for this based on what you have.

Efeora
Redeemer* bonded
Vanquisher
Min Choir
Full Bastions
Min Zealots

The problem now is that you have 3 points left and no solos. So the best thing would be for you to buy like a vassal and wracks or a 3 point solo like Vilmon.

The basic idea is to lit everthing on fire with the bonded redeemer and vanquisher and force players to move too you. Use vassals enliven to protect your vanquisher, counter-charge with ignited bastions, zealots for flanking and flagtaking. Safeguard Efeora behind bastions.

I'd switch the zealots for Cleansers normally, but you don't have them. With what you have I'd drop two bastions and add a crusader. Alternatively take the list above and add wracks and a vassal.

So far im thinking:
High Executioner Servath Reznik
Repenter
Crusader
Vanquisher
Choir of Menoth (Leader and 3 Grunts)
Exemplar Bastions (Leader and 4 Grunts)
The Wrack (3 wracks)
Vassal of Menoth

Any ideas?

I think this list look solid with what models you have to play around with. The problem is that you are really slow speed 4 with almost everything is not good but you cant really speed them up in any way so you will have to sacrifice something and go for the countercharge in most cases. And you probably wont get any flags because of your slow army and most list will outspeed you so go for the kill and ignore the flags :)

I would say with that list best play would be to try to be defender asap. Your best shot will be to assasinate and forget about the flags. Once you become defender my advice would be to run the bastions right down your opponents throat. Follow up with the rest of the crew. Have the choir chant safe passage to help survivability and to force your opponent to set off witchhound if he wants to take em out from far away. Becareful of other Jack heavy list because they will be quicker and most likely get the charge off. So protect with the bastions, engage if you can and pop reznik's feat to shut them down and insure you get the charge. If you space out the bastions you will be protected and can still draw Los to shoot. But you will be fairly slow.

I look forward to seeing you there.
