pFeora list progression 15->25->35pts

[Nanoha]

So, I really like Feora and I'd like to build off of my existing collection to make progressively larger lists. I don't really see her tier list as all that great (maybe I'm missing something).

At 15pts:
pFeora
-crusader
-vanquisher
min. choir
knights exemplar

All I'd need are the exemplar. I'd have a smattering of jack support, some weapon master infantry and two decent heavies.

At 25 pts I'd add Daughters of the flame, an exemplar senschal and the covenant

At 35 pts. other than a devout I'm not sure what to add. I have available:

10 flameguard cleansers
castigator

Reading through the list advice everyone seems to shout "Avatar!" with any Feora list, but it just doesn't appeal to me really. I'd use the cleansers but I'm not sure how I'd handle med. base infantry at that point. That's really my biggest fear at this point, cracking heavies and stuff like Man o'wars since Feora's feat can sweep up a fair amount of infantry on her own.

Also is anyone else sad that cleansers no longer explode when hit from behind?

Without the Avatar, I'd suggest the jack kit that I believe is coming out soon to magnetize the Sanctifier / Reckoner. The Sanctifier fuels itself, which is huge. The Reckoner also gives some additional support against heaves, adds Ashen Veil, and has other benefits.

3 jacks are a little much for Feora, but with focus efficiency, it can be done.

I also recommend Wracks and Hierophant to conserve focus. I've yet to find a list where I don't field both of those.

I wouldn't run Cleansers for the reason you stated - Feora's feat can handle most infantry.

That makes sense. I haven't even gotten the arms on my Castigator yet, I could even use some of the plastic bits to make a hybrid metal/plastic Reckoner out of it or something

I also recommend Wracks and Hierophant to conserve focus. I've yet to find a list where I don't field both of those.

Yeah, I'll probably go with the hierophant and add wracks when I can. I was thinking about a Vassal too

That's where I'm torn though, I mean thematically Cleansers are her troops. Maybe regular Temple Flameguard be better.
