Ok here is my newer list after some really great advice.

Grand Scrutator Severius
Blessing of Vengeance
Avatar of Menoth
Reckoner
Choir of Menoth (Leader and 3)
Exemplar Errants (Leader and 9)
Exemplar Errant Officer and Standard Bearer
Vassal of Menoth
Vassal Mechanik
Points:
35/35

I like the idea of having most of my focus for Sevvy. Should I drop the mechanik for a rack?

I do think the avatar is a hell of a big chunk of this force. I am dying to try it out though.

Haven't played much of Sevvy but I hear he does like Wracks. I'd swap them. Covenant of Menoth is never a bad idea if you can squeeze it in.

Definitely swap the Menofixer for the Wracks. pSevvy loves them, and he almost never wanders out of range of them.

The Menofixer is handy, but my experience is that they tend to flub their repair rolls on the turns where it really matters.

I would also consider swapping out the Vassal for a Hierophant. They're also a favorite for pSevvy. With this much focus support Sevvy can fully load up the Reckoner, upkeep EoM and Defenders Ward, and still cast A2A with a boost (or let the BoV run). It really opens up your options when you have focus support.

It is of course a matter of opinion, but I wanted to make sure you had a voice counter to Jandrese's opinion. I would not swap a Vassal of Menoth out for a heirophant. Ashes to ashes is a great spell, though its somewhat situational (its not something you'll be using to damage jacks or super solos generally). Given the choice, I'd rather have a vassal around to make my jacks survive longer or hit harder.

i've had alot of success with sevy but a few things i think are near auto include:
- wracks: extra focus is very, very handy
- hierophant: cheaper spells. can mean the difference between a boost or a failed attack roll
- covenant: blocking LOS to him is so important. his control area is large enough to stay behind it the whole game.
- arc node: his range isn't great even with a hierophant. whether its the blessing or a vanilla revenger i'd always run at least one with him. 16" control + medium base + spell range = hard to hide from
so for around 5-6 points you can have the above and i truely believe they're near auto include.

also, other things i like with him:
zealots: become insane for point cost after self buff and eye of menoth
repenter: become insane for point cost after choir buff and eye of menoth

Don't forget he has Immolation too, and through the BoV that Immolation (well the first one at least) is POW 15. That's powerful enough to put some hurt on a warjack or warbeast, especially boosted. Between the Wracks and Hierophant, that immolation is basically free.

I almost killed Karchev with Immolation once, over the course of several turns. If I had the BoV instead of a vanilla Revenger it would have worked too. He was down to a single health (on his Right Arm of course) when he managed to catch Sevvy in a Fissure and kill him off.

I don't own any Zealots yet. But sure would like some.

Personally, I'd swap the Reckoner for a Vanquisher as well. POW10 blast damage is fun!

Seriously though, the Vanquisher is anti-infantry AND anti-jack. It's the most versatile of our jacks, and Eye of Menoth really gives it something.

Otherwise, the list looks great. As has been said, I wish there was room for a Hierophant, but the wracks should help.

List is good as it stand just put in Wracks.

Optionally add Covenant as stated earlier. Not a required though IMO.

Reckoner or Vanquisher both work. Reckoner better assassination tool, Vanquisher better troop clearer.
