ok, small local tournament this sunay, and i'd like some advice on the lists im thinking of taking, i'll outline their basic concepts after the list so you folks can let me know what you would do, or change. (im really bad at picking competative lists!)
Irusk2
Behemoth
Drago/juggernaught
Doom Reavers
Iron Fang Pikemen (6)
Iron Fang Pikemen Officer & Standard
Man-o-war Shocktroopers (3)
ok, the thinking here is a fairly standard attrition styled gameplay, using the pikemen to sheild the reavers untill they can get into something tasty, fire for fun on the Behemoth for some ranged backup (not to mention his melee capabilities) Bond on Juggernaught if not using drago, and the shocktroopers just to aid in any sort of scenario where taking and holding a point is important, far better troopers under Irusk2 Superior Tactics.
Sorscha2
Beast-09
Devastator
Devastator
Doom Reavers
Iron Fang Pikemen.
really simple tactics here, its a brick, all it wants to do is move forward, reach its destination as intact as possible (again Pikement protecting Doom Reavers, Devastators covering Beast-09) Beast-09 bonded with Sorscha for frosty goodness, all holding out untill sorscha pops feat and everything opens up hopefully not leaving very much standing,
or my maybe/if/or alternative list would be
Zevanna Agha,
Drago
Juggernaught
Doom Reavers
Iron Fang Pikemen
Iron Fang Pikemen Officer & Standard
Man-o-war Shocktroopers
Widowmakers
Manhunter
this list is basically aiming for more of a territorial battle, with Zevanna keeping most troops out of areas she doesnt want them with her feat for one turn, widowmakers and manhunter for those annoying solo's and key units i dont want around, jacks for soaking damage more than anything else (i know! what a waste of Drago right?!)
anyway, they are the lists i've complied in readiness for this event, i've no idea what scenarios are goin to be played from steamroller, but i've tried to cover most variants.
anyway, as ever, awaiting your kind judgement!
