    Default 35 pts with Boomhowler and ATGM - Which Warcaster?

    So I have a full unit of both Boomhowler and ATGM that I've picked up while expanding my Cygnar collection, but I'm currently unsure which warcaster to get next to make them shine. I'm confident that they will be a good combination together but not 100% sure how to build an army around them.

    I have 3 list ideas so far: eCaine, pCaine or eHaley.

    List 1:
    - eCaine
    - Ol'Rowdy
    - Squire
    -ATGM
    - ATGM officer
    - Hunter
    - 10 Greygore Boomhowlers
    - eEiryss
    - Gorman Di Wulfe
    - Reinholdt

    List 2:
    - pCaine
    - Centurion
    - Sylys Wishnailer
    - Journeyman
    -ATGM
    - ATGM Officer
    - 10 Greygore Boomhowlers
    - 10 Long Gunners

    List 3:
    -eHaley
    - Centurion
    - Thorn
    - Squire
    - Journeyman
    -ATGM
    - ATGM Officer
    - 10 Greygore Boomhowlers
    - Stormsmith Stormcaller

    I'm leaning towards the 1st list at the moment and going with eCaine, it seems like the more balanced list that can deal with heavy armour and infantry a like and with a strong assassination threat to boot. Just not sure if I should try and fit junior in there somewhere, but I just feel that eEiryss fits better with eCaine.

    PCaine I'm also excited to field, will definitely get him eventually. Still tossing up though whether I should field the long gunners, or drop them for a defender on the ATGM + a stromsmith.

    EHaley though while she seems amazing, I'm not really sure how to build her army. I've heard that she's much better at 50 pts.

    Kara
    Defender
    Hunter
    Gorman
    Boomhowlers
    Jonas
    ATGM+UA
    your choice really, JR+Arlan is nice

    Oh and yea eHaley is a lot better at 50 points than 35. She is our best warcaster at 50 pts IMO, and still one of our best at 35.

    Forgot about Kara! I even have a list for her and everything. I'm thinking she will actually be a really good caster for me to play the ranged game with to compliment my eStryker army.

    My list for 35 points is below:

    - Kara
    - Defender

    - Journeyman

    -ATGM
    - ATGM officer
    - Hunter

    - 10 Greygore Boomhowlers
    - Murdoch

    - Gorman Di Wulfe
    - Reinholdt
    - Stormsmith

    Tossing up whether to swap the hunter and defender around between her and the ATGM but I think the JM'd hunter with potential crit brutals is better.

    I would keep the defender on Kara because it can melee if needed with 3 focus plus cortex damage and the hunter's low pow axe can't.

    Don't forget what the defender can do on Sloan's feat turn as well. Keeping the heavy hitter on Sloan for possible assassinations on feat turn might be best, as the hunter only get's a minor boost to small and medium bases. That being said, Sloan is not necessarily an assassination caster.
