I find it really hard to make a good 15pts list for the factions that I play. Mostly due to needing heavy's, that eats up most points.

Now with all the awesome and fairly cheap solos at the Retributions disposal, do you guys think we could make a strong list with mostly solos?

I think Garryth would fit in pretty good, using the jack points for a gorgon or chimera. The rest would be solos. Maybe something like:
2x sniper,eiryss, narn, assasin.

I know that they are really squishy, but it would be able to threat from many vectors. If anyone have tried it please share your experience.

Maybe it's my oldschool MKI tendencies, but I think that 15 points should be reserved for mangled metal games (just warjacks and warcasters). The game quickly becomes imbalanced with solos at this point level.

i have used something similar gary at 20/25 pts and it works really well

gary, 2 chimeras, 2 gorgons, narn, nayl, 2 xMHA something like that.

it is pretty cheesy at that points level the enemy doesn't have that much to proctect themselves with. as you can quickly encircle them while locking up their front line. MHAs up one flank nayl up the other narn has acrobatic so keep him behind your lines ready to pounce and garry can wait for a hole to appear of gallows one etc. i took down the old witch of khador and reznik with this.

i have not tried a 15 pt game like this this level is better reserved for beginer games mangled metal or battle box set games.

gary
gorgonx2
MHA x 2
p-eiryss
narn

you could loose the second gorgon and get 2 snipers and an arcanist you need no reason to take narn and MHA as for p-eiryss in this small game it's easier the threaten the caster with disruption taking the enemies focus is mad

I was thinking in a 15 pts list with only 1 light and 4 solos...

Gary? Who's Gary? We don't have any models named Gary.


But, oddly enough, I could see taking those models with Garryth, who is actually a model available to Retribution players. But not this Gary person.

Lol, I thought exactly this when I first saw someone make that abbreviation.
